Abrams’ “Lost” almost had a very different cast
Tale
The survivors of a plane crash are forced to work together to survive on a seemingly deserted tropical island. J.J. See which celebs missed one of the most popular TV shows of all time.
However, when Koreans marry, the wife never takes her husband’s surname
The character Sawyer was originally supposed to be an older, slick city con in a suit from Buffalo, NY. However, when Josh Holloway forgot a line during his audition and subsequently kicked a chair in frustration and cursed loudly, the writers liked the edge he brought to the character Sawyer and decided to write Sawyer as more of a Southern, gritty drifter instead. Jin and Sun are married and share the surname “Kwon,” which becomes a major plot point in the final season.
The weird opening credits were designed by JJ
In fact, in Korea, it’s not even allowed to marry someone with the same surname, except in rare cases. [repeated line] Desmond Hume: See you in another life, brother. Abrams on his laptop in black and white as an homage to The Twilight Zone.

This is a really good program with very good writers. There are plenty of subplots to keep you interested and waiting for the next week for more answers to the many growing mysteries surrounding the island where a group of plane crash survivors were destroyed. I also like how the writers elaborate on each main character’s story, making them more interesting to the viewer.
This looks to be a hit
There are plenty of mysterious goings on on the island and plenty of drama between the characters on the show. Great to have something on TV that isn’t about CSI, cops, lawyers or doctors!
