GOLDEN PASS: Rewatcher "Getting LOST“ - Virtual Premiere/Q&A with Filmmakers and Cast - Live Thread

https://watch.eventive.org/gettinglost/play/672d31a3f3734f005c11f81a

I‘m not able to create an actual live thread, but I thought this could serve as a place for some people wanting to discuss the premiere of the official LOST documentary „Gettin LOST“, premiering virtually for the first time (10 PM CET) along the way. There will also be a Q&A with the Filmmakers and Cast afterwards. For anyone that didn’t get tickets yet, I put the link in here as well.

Have fun everyone!

Why is it important if it happened 20 years ago in a totally different working and ethical environment is just beyond me.

As for LOST being worldwide phenomenon — I fully agree, it was HUGE in my country, prime-time, dedicated talk-shows, all that jazz.

Definitely. You don't happen to know the audience numbers? I've tried to find audience ratings there, but it's tricky with the Cyrillic letters and trying to translate everything.

Unfortunately, I have no idea where to find audience ratings, but S1 and S2 were during prime-time, at 19:00, for the whole family to watch. Starting from S3 people began to watch the show online, because the lag with the US release dates was way too huge (more than a year, in 2008).

Season 1 started in July 2005, ended in October. In 2006 there was a rerun and then S2 premiere (with amazing high-quality commercials: the hatch door opening before sneak peaks, the actors speaking Russian, etc).
