Hydra Island Weekend: LOST - MISSING PIECES!

This week, we shift back to LOST retrospective content with a bonus article all about the infamous LOST “mobisodes”, a series of short scenes to tide fans over during a long hiatus, with an added gimmick allowing Verizon subscribers to watch them a whole week early! All well and good, but were the “mobisodes” entertaining at all? Let’s go through them and find out.

24-Hours of Halloween Marathon III!

This week, it’s the return of the 24-Hour Halloween Marathon, a hypothetical all-day programming block that’s one of my favorite things to put together. John Carpenter! Garfield! Herschell Gordon Lewis! Huey Lewis! All of them can co-exist side-by-side on Halloween! Enjoy!

I Had to Go Back: Through the Looking Glass with LOST: Season Three!

This week, let's dive into the highs and lows of LOST Season Three! It gets off to about as bad a start as the show ever does (The six-week "mini-season"! A terrible character death!! Nikki and Paulo!!!), but manages to end with its strongest stretch of episodes, including a paradigm-shifting twist that proved LOST still had it. It's a tale of two cities! Come read along as we go through it.

Hyrda Island Bonus: Experiencing THE LOST EXPERIENCE!

This week over on the Hyrda Island, enjoy this quick bonus article all about THE LOST EXPERIENCE, a LOST-themed ARG that ran through the summer of 2006 and indicated the answer to a very important question: what are the Numbers? Let's explore what I found so intriguing about it at the time, as well as what makes it a obvious inessential failure now.

I Had To Go Back: Down the Hatch with Season Two of LOST!

This week, let's dive into the fairly divisive Season Two of LOST, where it felt like many who loved the show in its initial days fell off. I personally remember loving its turn into sci-fi intrigue at the time. How did it do on rewatch? Well, we'll talk about it. We'll also discuss the influx of new characters both great (Mr. Eko! Desmond! "Henry Gale"!) and not so great (sorry, Ana-Lucia!).

Hydra Island Weekend: Looking Back at THE OFFICIAL LOST PODCAST!

This week, we launch the weekend Hydra Island series, which is just a LOST-ian way of saying "series of short articles about tangential little LOST things". This weekend, a look back at the genuine, if illusory, magic of THE OFFICIAL LOST PODCAST, a show where Damon Lindelof and Carlton Case hopped on the mic for 20 minutes every week and answered insane questions from weird fans. An essential part of the LOST fan experience!

I Had to Go Back: Reflecting on Season One of LOST!

This week, let's look back at the most popular season of LOST, its very first. The pilot! That Locke flashback! "We have to take the boy"! The "I Never" game! The...uh...episode where Kate wants a briefcase! All of this and much, much more will be discussed in this mega-length look back at the 2005 Outstanding Drama Emmy winner, LOST!

I Had to Go Back: Twenty Years of LOST

In honor of LOST turning twenty years old today, and to kick off a series of articles diving into each season, week by week, let's discuss a couple of pervasive myths about the show that redefined what a network television drama was capable of (even if it stumbled over its feet from time to time).
