I recall watching it years ago but when the first season ended I heard nothing more. I liked the show, but this was pre-internet (or my access to it), so I had no idea if it carried on and we just didn't get it in the UK.

It only lasted one season. I think last episode was made to wrap things up and sufficiently mind blowing to be a finale, but yet it left an entirely new avenue open should the show be picked up by another network.
This is a pretty good episode guide:

Talk about "blow you away" endings, that one.I liked "Nowhere Man", too, as I did a number of other extraordinary UPN shows that didn't survive their first season for some reason. But, "Lost" makes "Nowhere Man" look like a kindergarten project.
The complexity of the story and the attention to detail are breathtaking -- far beyond just about any kind of TV writing I've ever seen -- yet it hasn't degenerated into incoherence like so many shows that have gone before (e.g., "Earth: Final Conflict") that only attempted half the complexity. Every major character has enough virtues and enough flaws that you develop a strong love/hate relationship with each of them. You have to pay close attention to EVERYTHING on the screen at any time, including pictures on the wall, what's playing on the TV set in the background, the faces of all persons passing by the main action, etc.
I am in awe that the production/writing team has been able to keep the whole thing under such great control, and that the suits haven't managed to mess it up. Except for J. Michael Strazynski (Babylon 5), I can't think of anyone else who has been able to pull this off, and he pretty much wrote every episode himself, I believe. "Lost" has used something like a dozen writers and a dozen directors so far, so they must have one HECK of a detailed series "bible"!

I've done it. I've become lost in "Lost." I had one of those weekends where I wanted to avoid everything. So I picked up the first 2 discs of "Lost," which accounts for the first 8 episodes. All I can say is WOWOWOWOWOW.
I'm not reading anything on this thread until I get fully caught up, which will be a while since the second season hasn't been released on DVD yet.
I'm at the point where Said's darker side surfaced, the Korean woman introduced the gang to the wonder of eucalyptus, and we know a little more about what drives Sawyer.
I'm transfixed. It's an extraordinary series. Who'da thunk it comes to us courtesy of network TV.

Welcome to the world of LOST. Once you have caught up, check out the posts from FPW himself, the ones with the graphs in them. Much speculation there. Enjoy!!!!!!!

Michael!!!!! And wasn't the Bernard-Rose flashback so sweet! Unfortunately next week they are putting Alias on instead. Darn it, 2 more weeks until Lost!

Great episode. So Rose and Locke are being healed by the island's magnetic fields! Neat!

I know I'm late to the party, but oh, what a party it is! I've finished the first season. I have a gazillion questions which I won't ask.
I don't want to see any of season 2 without seeing what has come before, so if someone can give a holler when reruns of season 2 begin, I'd be mighty appreciative.
What an extraordinary show!

Now, I don't see Walt, but this is still very cool none-the-less.
I'm watching the "Lost" reruns and I'm enthralled, of course. I am at the episode with Eko and the black smoke. I'd love to see these pictures but they are no longer available. Any suggestions?
Ok...I found them. They were on the link someone else posted.

Unbelievable! How do people find these things? The guy(s) who put that site together must have nothing else to do, but I surely appreciate it.
