  • Navigating LOST: Insights and Reflections
    Mar 25 2024
    Something a bit different this month. A Podcast designed for my University degree: Delve into the intricate world of the TV show Lost, exploring the profound impact of its characters, themes, and narrative techniques on viewers. Central characters like Jack Shepard, Kate Austen, Charlie Pace, John Locke, Sayyid Jarrar, Michael Dawson, Jin and Sun Kwon, and Sawyer are examined. The narrative devices of flashbacks and flash-forwards are discussed for their unique contributions to storytelling and character development, alongside the exploration of major themes such as fate vs. free will, and science vs. faith. Additionally, I address issues of racism, toxicity, and lack of inclusivity within the show's production, based on revelations from Maureen Ryan's book 'Burn It Down'. I also place myself within the storyline of Lost's first season, offering a fresh perspective on the challenges and moral dilemmas the survivors face.
