10 years on: LOST

 LOST

Today it is 10 years since the start of LOST. In my opinion the best show I have ever seen, as you probably know.
22nd September 2004 is when it all began! 

So in celebration I have picked out my 10 top favourite episodes:

Okay I love LOST and its hard choosing a favourite episode but there are a few that I really did enjoy. Along with all the Season Finales and season opening episodes here are a few. There are definitely others I probably have forgotten about! I need a re-watch!
 
Top 10 episodes, in no particular order
 
Season 1 Episode 18: Numbers  - Now this episode was all about one of my favourite characters Hurley, and a part from the spooky, black smoke monster which had already been heard before this, it was the first time where we got a feel that there was a bit more mystical and --- to the show. It looked at how Hurley believed he was cursed after winning the lottery with "the numbers" 4 8 15 16 23 42
 
Season 2 Episode 7:  The Other 48 days - This one looked back at the horrific events that happened on the other side of the island when the survivors of the tail section tried to adapt to island life and where attacked by "The Others." A much harsher experience than the other survivors.
 
 
Season 3 Episode 1: Tale of Two Cities: Yes I know this is a season starter, but I think it began with one of the best scenes of the whole show. It started with a woman we had not seen before, in a fully functioning house in an everyday village. But then suddenly, the ground shakes and the lady runs outside to see Oceanic 815 crash in the skies above. This was of course Juliet and the village was on the island!

 Season 4 Episode 5 - The Constant: Now this is probably my favourite mid-season episode. All about another favourite character, Desmond, and how he had side effects whilst leaving the island to the freighter, in which his consciousness travelled between his present self and his 1996 self. 
 
 
 
Season 5 Episode 6 - 316: How everyone got back to the island is revealed in this episode. And it is revealed that Jack, Kate and Hurley have time-travelled to 1977. With an exciting lead up to the Ajira Airways flight and the use of the lamppost station and Eloise Hawking. I also enjoyed the emergency landing by Frank Lapidus of Ajira Airways in a following episode.
 
 
Season 5 Episode 12 - Dead is Dead: We finally got a good idea of what the smoke monsters use was for on the island, to be judged. All this prior to revealing that it was actually Jacobs brother.
 
 
Season 6 Episode 6 - Sundown: The Man in Black / Smoke Monster is coming!!! Sayid has resurrected with darkness within him!! The most memorable thing about this was the ending. After the smoke monster has rampaged through the temple killing many, Claire, Sayid and MIB rejoin in a destroyed temple. They then leave and join a large group in which are ready to battle Jacob and the other survivors. Cue slow motion walk, stern looking faces and creepy Claire singing "Catch a Falling Star."
 
 
Season 6 Episode 9 - Ab Aeterno: A total new side to the show, focussing solely on Richards life before and on the island. A very exciting and emotional episode!
 

Season 1 Episode 1/2- Pilot Part 1/2: The whole opening sequence of the
Pilot was just fantastic. So much shock drama and action! With lots of explosions, screaming blood and gore with the beautiful backdrop of the island, you came out after watching feeling you have gone through the whole thing as if you were there! Very powerful stuff and the mystery of the "monster" at the very end was exciting and teased of the mystery of the island. What a show it turned out to be!
 


Season 6 Finale - The End: It still has to be there in the top 9. Now its sad that the show was ending of course but the excitement on the island and how they tied things up along with the beautiful and highly emotional scene in which the whole group rejoin in the afterlife and "move on" together. I am one of the people that loved the ending!
 
 
 Time for another rewatch I think :)
