There never was and never will be another show like LOST. The show was actually a part of my life. Only other LOST obsessed people will understand. 😭

Lost is still my favorite show and I’ll defend that ending to my last breath. I don’t really want to see it reboot by a new team that might undo some of the magic that the series held.
If the original creators and cast were involved, it would be interesting, but if new people came in and changed up the mythology, it might ruin its legacy. But of course the decision is ultimately out of our hands. For me, Lost was always Jack’s story and I got enough closure at the end of the series. Though I am curious to see how Hurley is faring on the island.
Maybe if they did a 10-episode limited series like they’re doing with Dexter, it would give them the opportunity to tie up loose ends and revisit old characters. But a part of me still wants to leave well enough alone.
Well said! I feel exactly the same
A reboot? No. A spinoff? Yes. I'd love for the early island pre-crash and mostly pre-Dharma to be explored. Like even pre-Richard. Pre and post-Egyptian island, maybe all the way up to early Dharma settlement, but before Sawyer and company join Dharmaville.
I also think there could be some merit in post-Jack's death island time, with new characters and maybe some old faces too, like Hurley.
I once read a fan script for the very idea which weaved both of these times into a single narrative and it was actually pretty great and made me realize the potential.
Well; at least you got your name right.
No One likes LOST.
Yep. I'd rather see a reunion with the whole cast when it turns 20 years old. That would be magical
I've watched a lot of TV, but no show has ever captivated me as much as Lost. It has absolutely everything. I never get tired of watching it and I don't think it will ever be beaten
Still the best show ever made, in my opinion. I didn’t mind the fillers because when the finale concluded, it made the entire journey so worth it. The characters and the island became a part of me during those years.
I'm sorry to interrupt and I'mma let ya finish but LEGION is the best show ever made. (With no offense to LOST!)
Better than sopranos? The Wire? I would argue season 1 of lost is one of the best single seasons of television, but I don't think Lost overall is one the mount Rushmore of greatness.
@@michaelcorcoran8768 that’s fair. The Wire and The Sopranos are both in my top 5. I think Lost just caught me in the right time of my life.
@@tomaslekis3262 I know what you mean. My top 5: Lost, The Handmaids Tale, Outlander, GOT & Fringe.
Greatest TV Show Ever PERIOD..!!!! No reboot please, but a prequel to the beginning of the islands birth, that could be cool.
That’ll be great.
A show about a previous selection of candidates by Jacob, lets call this the group just right before. A failed attempt by Jacob. And this group would also have connections with our Lost group and it will also go very in depth with the origins like when the Egyptians were there because this group will get sent back to that time.
@@TheCasanovaPugilist147 that combined with far-future singularity of a sort
Six seasons of Dharma Open please. Hurley invites players from around the world to the island for a time travelling golf tournament. Each player has a mysterious backstory.
Lol... sounds like fantasy island...
At this point there have been so many shows that have gone the 'story creators getting involved with fans and discussing theories' route but so far Carlton and Damon are the only ones that still get me engaged when they discuss their show, release new details and joke about the lore... There's something about how they communicate and how they engage the audience that hasn't been replicated yet.
I would definitely watch a new podcast about them discussing Lost.
What a classy answer about whether or not Hurley liked the new Star Wars movies. I miss these two talking together. LOST is the GOAT.
just finished my first watch, i was SPEECHLESS.. loved every second.
and now you realizes that it did not make any sense and it should...and it is dissapointing, right ?
@@preventivniuder4352 I did make sense, people totally misunderstand the ending
@@ar4203 it is end of something else xD
...it does make sense but it is not the end of the story which started in first season...
Damon and Carlton need to work together again. Doesn’t have to be Lost but another show.
@Doves all the stuff they're doing on their own is being compared to LOST as well (The Leftovers & Watchmen in the case of Lindelof, The Returned & Colony in the case of Cuse), so... why not team up again if their schedules work out?
They ain't ready to retire yet clearly, having done tons of stuff apart since LOST ended.
@Doves Fair enough. But ya never know unless you try, eh? Lightning SOMEtimes strikes twice.
From what I've read and heard, JJ and Lindelof both came up with LOST together to give ABC the show they wanted about being trapped on an island or whatever (I think they were looking to compete with CBS's Survivor popularity) and Lindelof brought Cuse in right away to help him showrun it since JJ was gonna be off doing movies and stuff and no longer involved with the show.
I watched ep 1 of Leftovers during an HBO free weekend, always meant to come back to it... my wife just signed up for the 40% off a full year of HBO Max, so Leftovers here we come!
Dark tower
This gives me such massive nostalgia for the old podcast omg!
The best reunion by far! I still watch LOST from time to time, was year ago in Dublin on Maestro Giacchino concert and have a big banner from S6 poster with all characters (except Nikki & Paolo...) in my living room. Thanks for everything, the show couldn't have been better. LUST4LOST
Lost was and is a superb show. Brilliantly captivating mysteries
I love and miss Lost so much (well, I can rewatch it), but I had forgotten how much I missed the Damon and Carlton podcast. This panel brought it back for a little less than an hour.
Yes, they definitely need to do a new podcast together.
Great interview, I love to hear them talk about Lost! I'm so glad they're still so passionate when they answer our questions, even 10 years later!
I listened to every episode of their podcast in between episodes. I 'm actually in a re-watch right now and in Season5. I went back and found the podcasts and listened to some, and man, so great still. Thanks Damon and Carlton for everything LOST!
Where did you find them? I never heard them
@@matjennifer You can find them on CZcams - search for the Official LOST Podcast!

Greatest show of all time.

Years of
LOST
"Got any milk" was one of my favorite moments of the show - really shocking tonally
That and the end of Walkabout and TTLG
they make me wanting to bing watch this show again !!!!! no reboot pleease cause the show is just a monument !!
Wish it was longer. Great video
These weren't engaging questions, but I appreciate seeing these two again. One very special show.
Lost is the only show that consistently makes me tear up every time I see it, nothing can beat lost for me, this show will forever rock for all of time, also one of the best if not the best group of characters in tv
I have started re listening to the podcasts only the other week! I remember enjoying them all so much! Love Damon & Carlton!
I don't think I've been this happy since quarantine began
That sounds sad
The biggest Lost mystery: Why Hugo's nickname is Hurley?
🤢🤮
The actor had stated why his name was Hurley because his hair was curly 😏
Apparently, its about an hurling anecdote of Hugo's past who has never been told on the show.
LOST é a melhor série ainda!! 🏝️
GREAT series - Perfect Ending
These dudes are absolute geniuses!
I wish I saw this video when it first came out. I just want to say I've watched Lost seven times so far. I think it's the greatest TV show ever made by a mile. I so much wish I could forget it to see it all again for the first time. I would love to see a reboot with all new people but there's no way it would ever compare to the original so I think that probably would be a mistake.
Yeah the montage was excellent! The whole series was one of the best. Worth watching again once in a while. I just watched the whole series again after 10 years & enjoyed it even more!
It did a wonderful job of probing Faith w/o Reason, Reason w/o Faith. Just substitute the word "science" for "reason" as in the 3rd Season Episode "Man of Faith-Man of Science." You cannot have one w/o the other & it did a great job of not shoe horning them into separate boxes. There are rational explanations, scientifically for some things. Sometimes there is not such as in Supranatural occurrences.
Excellent Series. I don't watch TV at all but when I saw the opening scene in the Pilot in 2004, Jack opening his eye in the bamboo filed I said right then. "Oh, this is going to be interesting!" One of the best series I ever watched! Terry O' Quinn & Michael Emerson stole the last season. Superb performances by both. Loved how they tied everyone in all the characters in the last season. Me & the wife still get emotional of the final season when the camera pans in on Jack's eye closing. Wow! What a "book end."
I find Carltons' answer about writing with commercial breaks in mind, interesting. In America, they seem to happen every 5 minutes.
Where I'm from, there's probably 1-2 breaks per episode. So there were always big teasers & fade to black, every 5 minutes.
Didn't have the intended effect outside of the USA.
Damon is the only one with a proper microphone. That checks out.
How would you KNOW what a "proper" mic is?
One you can SEE in the frame?
Jesus.
@@katiedonovanAlt It's quite simple really, you can hear the difference in the quality. Didn't mean to offend anyone with my comment.
@@PezQ84 You did not offend me. I might have offended you, as I am a trifle brusque.
Pay it no mind; I'm of no consequence at all.
As for differences in quality....whether or not such subjective difference exists is not where I am; I'm at the point where their signals all merge with the up box....and then those signals are muxed with the final, then THAT is transcoded by YT...then the playback is yet another layer of transcoding....
There is so much processing going on, any perturbations in quality...whether or not they are objectively there...could easily be left to any of a dozen roll-of-dice factors in post or even just the output on your own setup.
That's all after the fact that the other two might be using lavas, or they might be using real mics as well...they just know how to block a shot better...who knows?
Loved this q&a ... made me laugh and remember the official lost podcast days
I just finished my second viewing of lost. Watched originally live and had to revisit it. Best show ever. These two writers are geniuses.
Love listening to Cuselof!
Great interview! Thanks!
Please guys do an anniversary dvd blue ray set. Rerelease it.
Is anyone aware this year is: 4 8 15 (16 YEARS OF LOST) 23 42?
?
Don't forget: Danielle Rosseau was stuck on the island for 16 YEARS by the time Oceanic Flight 815 crashed onto the island. It's been 16 YEARS since that crash.
Yes. Sun and Jin dying was so sad. That one was a toughy for me to watch also.
I'm still not over the fact that they willingly made their child an orphan. That never sat right with me.
Agreed! Their story was more powerful than Jack and Rose's in Titanic.
@@dawnieb.7394 Jin never saw his daughter in person. Yeah it was his daughter and the right thing is for him to leave Sun and get back to their child but he never got to see or raise her personally. His love for Sun was too strong. He promised he would never leave her again and he stuck to his promise. Lost was not just a scifi but a story about true love.
Yesss!!! 👏👏👏
rewatching lost now. Such a fantastic show
The best series of all time period!
This is a VERY rare event for 'super fans'; Darlton on a podcast specifically to talk about Lost. I really wish a super fan had hosted this. The host did fine generally, but unfortunately the valuable opportunity was missed to gain further insights into the deep mythology and advance some of the theory discourse. This is so important to super fans. Please keep this in mind for the future!
The episode with Nikki and poulo was beautifully haunting 🥲🤣 like the spiders and the burying them when they were paralysed not actually dead oooooopfh that is deeeeep😭🤣🤣
My favorite show
The Harlem Globetrotters were on the other outrigger. True story.
My Favorite show of ALL TIME!
Well that is sad....50 % mysteries unsolved and whole show does not make sense...
remember Walt ? or shall I write WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALT ? 😀😀😀
@@preventivniuder4352 I never said it was perfect. But its still the best show of all time.
@@jal2550 of course it is not
@@preventivniuder4352 It is for me!
September 22nd being my birthday and LOST being my favorite show ever IS a coincidence. Or is it ?
It's destiny
Same! It's my birthday too 😊
Great show. Great, misunderstood ending.
the dharma Open 🤣🤣🤣
I'm at 17:00
:)
I thought Charlie’s death was the saddest because at that point a main character dying was still a bit of a shock. By the time Sun and Jin died you had already realized things were wrapping up and anyone could go. Plus their whole story in the final seasons was finding each other, which they did.
Lost was just Jin and Sun's love story disguised as a sci fi 😂
Lizzie's death was so pointless. Mr. Eko dying really changed the season, with things he was supposed to do going to others. But the way the freighter played out, it kind of took away from Charlie's sacrifice.
I feel like the "whispers" problem was easily solvable. I think the theory of the whispers either being the others or MIB trying to imitate the others (to scare the survivors) makes sense. I don't see where that theory falls apart within the story...except for the part where Michael says the whispers are the souls who couldn't move on, an explanation which makes zero sense to me.
20 year anniversary this year i hope there is something fun planned :)
Greatest show ever made
The real ending was on DVD extras.
Explain. I dont have it.
@@TheCasanovaPugilist147 czcams.com/video/lMjPzV2RvO8/video.html
@@TheCasanovaPugilist147I think it’s a reference to the show epilogue “The New Man In Charge”. It’s available on CZcams if you haven’t seen it.
🙂🍿Lost 👏
Seeing this pop up in my feed was a real rattlesnake in the mailbox.
Frozen donkey wheels forever!
Riddle me this - when 815 crashes, MIB is loose on the island, when Locke and Ben go to the cabin, there is an uninterrupted line of ash around it and MIB is presumably trapped inside. Then when Ilana and the group goes there, the line of ash is interrupted and MIB is of course not there. Who manage to trap the MIB in the cabin and how??? And who let him loose?
The cabin was exclusively used by Jacob at that time, presumably to meet Richard to give instructions or leave lists. The ash was to keep the MiB out. This is why when Ben first takes Locke there, the line is unbroken and no one is in the cabin. Later, when Locke goes back, the ash line is broken and the MiB is inside in the form of Christian Shepherd.
Although not explicitly in the show, it seems likely that the MiB got Claire to break the line for him after she follows him in the Jungle (also in the form of Christian) and leaves Aaron behind.
One fan question I've always had and never seen asked or answered (which probably means it's a dumb question lol)... is the Dave that was in the hospital with Hurley (and Hurley saw visions of on the island) the same Dave that was married to Libby, what with Hurley's and Libbey's connection and all?
If they ever did a spin off it should be about the Dharma Initiative.
Lol he said “my wife BINGED 6 seasons in 8months. I jus watched 6 seasons in less than 3 weeks lol.
DJ DOM!!!
“We were over at J.J’s house” he says casually
I always wanted to know if everybody on the ajaira plane made it to safety they didn't have the epilogue with Hurley and Benjamin Linus it would have been kind of cool just to see what happened to everybody that was on the plane that's one question I like to know also I think the people on the other Outrigger where either whitmore's people or Jacobs bodyguards but we will never know
🍿⌛
I've always thought the answer to the Outrigger is obvious.... it was Lindelof and Cuse....
That girl was not Australian lol
Yeah wtf. I love Damon, but he’s still a silly American
Yep no wonder the Aussie accents were so bad on the show. lol
No Excuse for Cuse
I wish there was a way to contact them.
Wondering if someone can jog my memory..what part of the show is the question about 'the people on the other outrigger' referring to?
Wait, so are they doing a new podcast? If they come up with a central theme to it?
WHATTT!
I think they were asked a question early on whether anything could happen on the island including time travel, and they said "No." The time travel bits (other than Desmond's) didn't really work for me, as it meant there was essentially no free will from the earliest point they went back to (with the statue still standing and the rope in the ground) until the latest point after the landing of the Ajira plane when Locke fixes the wheel. What happened, was meant to happen. So that means you can't ask, what if [so-and-so] did something different?
They didn't say "no"
The network wanted a straightforward survivor show, a TV version of “Castaway”. They had to keep the supernatural elements under the radar until the network realized they had a hit and renewed the show…then they could do whatever they wanted.
Dude she's British
Is Damons T-shirt from the Dharma Initiative? 😄
I just love Lost - but I'm not sure I understand the ending yet. It's not as cohesive as I would like it to be.
you can watch this and other parts of that review and you will understand everything what happened :

im glad some of the questions were serious and thought provoking but i still dont exactly appreciate not answering the outrigger thing and in my case I dont really care who it was more so I dont like when answers are not given to shows and movies that people pay to see get answers from, why would someone go into a story to not see a story or only half told? i know some people will defend that action, I personally think its pretentious. The only time I would not want to know the answer is im afraid of what it could be otherwise I still dont get the big deal.
And honestly I think lost is a show that could do better with a prequel, I kind of wanted for years to see how magic found its way to the island, the origins of the smoke monster(not mib), statue, cork, etc.
Locke and Hurley remained on the island, right? Makes sense to do a spin-off with those two characters 10 years later! And, new arrivals!
Ben & Hurley not Locke. Locke's dead.
Locke died.. guy 🤨 lol
What's up yall?!?! You excited?!
Enjoyed that. The original run of anything is normally the best it will be. Remakes or do-overs generally are a disappointment. Take JAWS for example......a 2020 version of that with CGI and all the latest tech would not beat it. IMO.
Darlton
I just want to know who's in the out rigger!!!
Here you go. :)

@@huthtruth Thanks! Fascinating explanation!
I'm pretty sure it's the Black Rock crew.
@@pkmntrainer5016 As addressed in the video, it can't be...
Was LOST a mirror of An Ayahuasca Journey? I need an answer 😆
12.26 Not Aussie
I watched most part of this video, I'm surprised that they can be so open to talk about those hardcore fan's questions. Since I skipped a bit, is this video answered the secret about Walt?
do you mean WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALT ?
What secret?
NO to a reboot/revival. What else could they do on the island? Television changed after LOST, most shows use nonlinear storytelling, huge twists, deep character stories now. It wouldn't be unique.
It had to be the 1950s others imo on the outriggers. Seems like they had orders to shoot on sight. Under Ben this was not the case. It was either Eleanor or Widmore’s command I think. They were the most..”hostile”.. possibly under Ben during the purge to mop up stragglers.
What about Isabel? They presented her as if she were an important character, but she disappeared.
12:36 uhhh that's a British accent...
22:07 what actor was that? Walt?
Did the interviewer say that he stopped after season 1?
It’s a joke
I would love a new series focusing on the DHARMA INITIATIVE. From the inception to their height at the island.
Leads were called Jack and Kate. Titanic. Jin and Sun death scene. Coincidence I think not.
My pre-teen son spent years telling me they'd botch the ending; wish I'd listened. It did reinforce my respect for Patrick McGoohan & how he conceived and concluded The Prisoner.
I thought the ending was great
11:15 "At least that's what I keep telling _______" Who????
Bai Ling. She played Achara.
Carlton always seems like he can't be bothered answering questions. It's like it's a chore for him. I'm not knocking him for it because it must be exhausting answering the same questions over and over again, especially when (as writers) they've moved on but fans keep them in the past with LOST. Having said that....why does he keep turning up for all the Q&A interviews?
I have the utmost respect for Damon Lindelof's writings, and his abilities when giving his devotion, that said I am a little angered and very saddened that he does not seem to have any desire, even 14 years later, to right the selfish wrongs of how they sloppily and quickly ended the show. They threw a lot of spaghetti at the wall that didn't stick in terms of the "meaning" and resolution of the mysteries of the show, instead trying to highlight the "journey" or the emotional impact of the characters. And they did nail that part of the series, but the former was an abject failure in a lot of people's eyes.. They wouldn't admit it at the time, but they hastily painted themselves into a corner creating questions they didn't have answers for, and also couldn't come up with, and then bailed ASAP and moved on curtly.
It's been 14 years now since the end of the show. I'll say it again, I'm saddened and disappointed that given that time they didn't do what Dexter did, or what GoT fans want done, which is go back and maybe deliver a little better product to take some of that bad taste from the mouth. I liked the character journey, but they really missed the strike zone on what the island was and who the mythological beings native to it were. There's a lot of real estate to fix that, and it's their mess to clean up, not some random sanctioned fan of the show writers room.
Name a question they didn’t answer
