Trivia

Hugo Reyes is teased several times for not losing large amounts of weight on the island, although actor Jorge Garcia was noticeably thinner after the pilot episode. He had already lost 30 lbs. prior to the show's filming and continued losing weight because of the demand of the filming. However, LOST producers asked him to maintain a consistent weight for the sake of production, not only because of the show's relatively slow timeline (the first three seasons cover about 100 days) but also allowed them, over the seasons, to seamlessly film multiple flashbacks to Hurley's life shortly before the crash and show him looking the same.

User Reviews

The Mysterious Island only Continues to Grow Evermore Secretive...

Just about when you think you're about to get an answer, two more questions come. It skews off to be one of the most interesting, complicated, mysterious, T'v' shows out there. Season 1 starts off slowly, being a classic "where are we?" situation. From there, J.J. Abrams creates one of the greatest programs in T'v' history. Each character was interesting in their own way, and the answers to the secrets had me satisfied - despite the Arminian implausibilities. Highly recommend you watch this show.
