Lost is an American drama/adventure television series set in the aftermath of a plane crash on a mysterious tropical island somewhere in the South Pacific.
The series was developed exclusively by ABC: former studio executive Lloyd Braun pitched an idea about a plane crashing on a remote island to series creator J.J. Abrams in January 2004, after most of the new series for the 2004 fall season had already been selected and begun production.
The November 17, 2004, issue of USA Today listed several fan theories as to the nature of the show: that the characters are in purgatory, that Locke is working for the genetic engineers and social scientists using the island as an experiment, and that the island is a sort of dreamworld Fantasy Island.

Lost came out of nowhere, but as Comic-Con attendees know, it started right here in San Diego in July of 2004 when Comic-Con presented the first-ever look at the show, months before it debuted on ABC.
And now in 2006, Lost returns once again to the Comic-Con stage in Ballroom 20 on Saturday, July 22 at 10:30AM in what just might be their biggest presentation to date.
We feel there are television shows like CSI and the X-Files that sort of lend themselves more to comic book storytelling because they are franchise dramas, but because Lost is an ongoing and unfurling story, we haven’t quite isolated exactly what the comic book could be.

Lost's third-season opener was watched by 18.8 million, ABC said.
And while that was more than enough to make it the night's most-watched show, and should be more than enough to make it one of the week's most watched shows, it wasn't near enough to match its own second-season premiere.

Even "Lost's" success – it's a top 20 show – is something of a surprise, considering that its creators, J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof, went against most of the current beliefs about what audiences want.
But an executive at Touchstone Television convinced Abrams and Lindelof that killing him off would be too wrenching for the audience.

Lost tells the tale of some 48 survivors of a horrific plane crash, stranded on a tropical island with nothing but their own wits at their disposal.
In the first episode, Lost has quickly begun setting up its own unique mythology that may very well place it among other well-loved (or hated, depending on who you ask) cult TV favorites such as Twin Peaks and Carnivale.
After a series of disappointments (Kingdom Hospital, I'm looking at you, and continue standing in that corner), "Lost" seems to be smart, clever, and willing to expect the audience to do some work, with the promise of a great reward.
