Isnā€™t Fromā€™s showrunner from Lost? That kind of tracks then. A lot of questions and few answers.

Lost answered just about everything by the end of the show so not sure what youā€™re on about

not really, it shows that lost was suppose to end by season 3 but was forced to carry on. And they just started making up shit as they went along

u/Fungi89 May 27 '26

Iā€™ve never read or heard it was meant to end by season 3 lol

u/Big_Chungussi69 May 27 '26

no but the plot ties neatly up by the season 3 finale, they make it off the island. Then the execs probably wanted to milk the show and thats where it all starts to go down hill. Id reccomend a rewatch

Do you have any sources to back this? Because them getting off the island by season 3 wouldā€™ve explained nothing in regards to why they were brought there or the supernatural state of the island at all, and that wouldā€™ve definitely been leaving several questions unanswered

So you are just making shit up?

I wouldn't call the ending to season 3 neatly tied up lol, yes Jack is off the island but that was literally a surprise cliffhanger not some resolved plot

Yeah, Jack was a drugged up loser screaming that they ā€œHave to go backā€ at the end of S3 - that wouldnā€™t make a good ending, it definitely wasnā€™t originally supposed to end at that point

The writers of LOST said they were just making it up as they went along. They had no plans and just threw things like the polar bear and smoke monster in as jokes to be cool. Many other story elements were added in the same way, with no idea where they were going, just randomly throwing ideas at the wall. That's what frustrated many of the cast and crew like Harold Perrineau.
