fuckyeahlost: “I Pretty Much Wanted to Die” - The origins of LOST, as told by the people who made it; an excerpt from TV critic Alan Sepinwall’s The Revolution Was Televised. The story of LOST makes no sense. And by that I don’t mean the story on the show — though this is the point where you can feel free to insert jokes about the numbers, the outrigger shootout, or the reasons why Walt was “special” — but the story of how LOST itself got made. This is a great read. There’s a lot more about LOST in the book, so I think I’m going to have to pick it up.
