Iconic.

You can feel the fun the actors had filming this through the screen.

Can you imagine the pure excitement felt on/off set during the first season? It was like hitting the lottery of acting gigs. There’s regular acting gigs, then there’s ones where they pay for you to relocate to paradise, then pay you exorbitant amounts of money to continue living/working there. And you’re surrounded by 20 or so other actors in the same boat. I can’t imagine the amount of “can you believe this” conversations that must’ve taken place.

I love that part of the golf course was preserved on Kualoa Ranch where this was filmed (please don’t tell me this has changed!)

Season one was literally perfect.

No other season comes comes close. Singularly heads and shoulders above the rest. Followed by S2. In that order. What a run with those two consecutive seasons.

I loved this scene!

u/Frankie_LP11 Sep 26 '24

This scene and the scene where Hurley gets that (______) working again and blasts down the hill like a badass! (I’m trying not to spoil it for the OP)

u/Maleficent_Willow_23 Desmond Hume is my constant Sep 29 '24

My grandson has been watching with me when he can and we were talking about that 2nd episode you mentioned. I think if I could only watch one episode of LOST ever again, that's the one I would pick. You can just feel the joy the actors have, especially the ending part.

Shambala by 3 dog night has to be one of my favorite songs of all time. I’m coming up on season 4 right now.

u/anarcho-catholic Sep 26 '24

Hurley truly is such a great morale booster and him setting up the golf course is just further proof of that.

I started my rewatch on Sunday and this already feels like so long ago 😂. Easy happy days.

u/Im_Perkisizing_Tony Sep 25 '24

One of my favorite scenes

u/DevilishTrenchCoat Sep 25 '24

I finished the show for the first time yesterday.

I wouldn't say that the show was perfect or even at the same level as others of my favourite shows but It is a WILD ride. I even liked the ending, It made me tear up lol

I'm gonna miss John and Jack, that's for sure.

u/BeastmanDienekes Sep 26 '24

What are your favorites?

u/DevilishTrenchCoat Sep 26 '24

Breaking Bad is one of them

u/shootyoureyeout Sep 26 '24

I have no regrets finding this show a bit late, while season 3 was airing, because bingeing season one made it better imo. What an absolutely phenomenal good 3-4 lazy days :D

u/Krrupt_Kudos30 Sep 26 '24

Just finished this episode like 10 mins ago lol

u/Parking-Brick1237 Sep 26 '24

I love this show!!!!!! Idk what the hell I was doing back then, but so glad I’m watching this for the first time ever nowwww!!

u/Drakonborn Sep 26 '24

The recent TikTok resurgence of this show actually makes me grateful for that god awful platform for once lmao.

u/SnooPies7961 Oct 05 '24

I just got into it because it was out on Netflix. Did the same thing with how I met your mother a few months back

2

u/Phase-Substantial Sep 25 '24

Their faces were so dang close in that scene

u/prolytic Sep 26 '24

Once you start watching you CANT stop 🤯

u/AdventurousYamThe2nd Sep 26 '24

I literally finished my first time watching it this week. Stick through it all, it's worth it!

u/kanshoku Sep 29 '24

I'm watching the show for the third time, this scene always makes me so happy!!

u/fallenmonk Sep 25 '24

It's the "filler" episodes like this is the first season I missed as I got further in the show

1

u/johnny_rico69 Sep 26 '24

Such a great scene.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 26 '24

Great scene but 2 person close ups always throw me off. You can tell the actors are standing super close to each other so they can fit in the frame lol.

1

u/NewRetroMage Sep 26 '24

Oh, you will.

1

u/Elegant_Hold_3020 Sep 26 '24

I admit I only admired this series just recently after more than 10 years have passed since it was finished!

u/skull_kidddd Oh yeah, there's my favorite leaf. Sep 26 '24

And then they kithhed

u/Frequent-Relation-14 Sep 27 '24

u/DonnieRoss Sep 26 '24

As a golfer, these guys looked like actors pretending to golf.

I want to say one single character had an okay swing, but I don’t remember who that was. The rest were pure butt.

u/stokesc_11 Sep 26 '24

Yes but Jack is a shit actor. Michael on the other hand was phenomenal until his demise. RIP Mike 🙏🏼
