      Bill Goodykoontz Arizona Republic Lost is rip-roaring fun, an adventure that's best undertaken if you just sit back and enjoy the ride without thinking about it too much. Jun 29, 2023 Full Review Mike Duffy Detroit Free Press With a little bit of prime time luck, Lost just may become what it sets out to be -- a mesmerizing thrill ride with a brain and more than a little humanity. Rated: 3/4 Jun 29, 2023 Full Review Steve Murray Atlanta Journal-Constitution It's the one new show of the season where you really will want to know what happens next. Rated: A- Jun 29, 2023 Full Review Glenn Garvin Miami Herald Lost -- the single most promising show of the new season -- manages to evoke 9/11 fears without exploiting them, an impressive achievement in itself. Jun 29, 2023 Full Review Alan Pergament Buffalo News One doubts it will become the monster hit that ABC so desperately needs, but at least Lost is interesting enough to make the network look like it is headed in the right direction. Rated: 3/4 Jun 29, 2023 Full Review Tom Jicha South Florida Sun-Sentinel The latest take [on the Robinson Crusoe concept], ABC's Lost, has managed to come up with a satisfying new approach, which ranks among the most interesting of this fall's freshman class.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/02/24 Full Review Cenk Y Beste Serie aller Zeiten Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/19/24 Full Review Imran z I think it is the best ever Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/24/24 Full Review Rose R Greatest show of all time. A masterpiece Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/13/24 Full Review Benjamin H Imaginative, smartly written and filled with thrills, Lost Season 1 suffers a few times in its pacing, but this is an emotionally fulfilling and sharp-witted show that further enthralls with its stupendous blend of different genres and rich character depth. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/24 Full Review Chase C Pretty good, but it has a lot of pointless cliffhangers / flashbacks. And things that are brought up aren't looked at again until like 10 episodes later. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/05/24 Full Review Read all reviews
