One of TV’s biggest event shows ever was Lost.
True, in the end, it tripped itself up – much like Battlestar Galactica – but during its run it was a glorious headscratcher that raised questions and gave answers that only raised additional questions.
The concept was a simple one… a passenger jet crashes on a mysterious island – so mysterious that, to all intents and purposes it doesn’t exist at all – and the survivors must come together to survive as something menacing lurks in the woods.
Each survivior has secrets and seems to have a reason to be there… but why? Are they dead? Is it aliens?! What is going on?!
Well, it seems that we aren’t the only ones pondering these things and finding ourselves wanting to go back to the island.
ABC President Karey Burke has recently admitted that Lost “is a reboot I’d be interested in seeing.”
You and us both!
“It is literally at this point just what I dream about when I go to bed at night,” Burke said.
“I have not spoken to Carlton [Cuse] or J.J. [Abrams] or ABC Studios about it.”
While creators Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof have said in the past they will never go back to the island, they both sadi they’d be happy for someone to pick up the story and run with it as long as it remains faithful to the original show.
“I do often get the question what show would I reboot and often my answer is Lost, sometimes Alias,” Burke said.
“Nothing to report yet, maybe ever but it would be a fun thing to have a conversation about.”
Of all the shows we would love to see return, Lost is defintitely top ten stuff… we always felt the finale didn’t really answer anything at all and, as such, we feel the island and the surviviors have more of a story to tell.
Would you like to be Lost again? Let us know…
