LOST is my favourite TV Show of all time. What's your favourite one?

Submitted by Amine-Aouragh t3_1181c8s in television

I enjoyed watching LOST so much.

Even if some people could be hating the ending and not getting much answers to so many questions.

But in its entirety, I really loved the show.

The characters: Charlie, Hurley, Ben Linus, John Locke

The Desmond & Penny love story.

The Sayid & Nadia love story.

All the mysteries.

The acting performances and the script.

It was such a revolution in the TV industry back then.

So many shows tried to replicate that recently but they all failed.

I did watch The Leftovers and really loved it. It's also in the very top of my list. Damon Lindelof is simply an amazing storyteller.

Supernatural. It's shlock for many, but it just ticks off all the boxes for me

  • monsters, mythology and meta
  • classic rock, muscle cars and road trips
  • top-tier brotherhood

Idk how to describe it other than “it’s just watchable”. They just had good chemistry from the very beginning, and even with the over the top plot lines after 7 seasons or so, you just enjoy the characters. That Kansas montage at the end after all those years though, that’s a tear jerker.

It was great at first but got boring and stupid towards the end. Schillinjer and Adebisi carried much of the show(imo).

I never watched that show but I know it was amazing because i've heard so many good things about it, i think Prison Break took so much inspiration from it and back in the days it was also one of the most revolutionary TV Shows with The Sopranos, The Wire, Lost... I would love to watch it.

Breaking Bad.

Only because it somehow manages to have the best of LOST, Friends, Fresh Prince, Prison Break, Martin all wrapped in one while being it's own original story in Walter White and Jesse Pinkman.

It introduced the television world to JJ Abrams mystery boxes which were made to seem very important, but actually weren't, and I think that bleeds into a lot of his storytelling formula.

The OA. It’s the most unique storytelling I’ve ever seen and I have never found anything that comes close.

Doctor Who. It's constantly kept fresh by the built in recasting mechanism and effortlessly skates between light-heartedly silly and deeply emotional.

For me it's MASH.

The biggest reason for me is how thoroughly and brilliantly they explored its setting and what a TV dramedy could be. Smartly written comedic episodes, very poignant dramatic ones, a bunch of episodes that blurred that line, and quite a few experimental episodes that pushed the format of the series in very creative ways.

And for me, it has my favorite cast on a TV series. Through the emotional highs and lows, you get to know these characters so thoroughly that even some of the bigger caricatures have their moments of humanity (even if it's more hidden in someone like Frank). And while some actors are stronger than others, I thought they were all very good in their respective roles, and did a very admirable job playing the various emotional beats they had to throughout the seasons and bring their characters to life as well as they did.

Edit: I will say that Lost used to be mine as well, and while that's no longer the case, it's still pretty high on my list.
