Abrams' "Lost" almost had an entirely different cast
Line of Events
The survivors of a plane crash are forced to work together in order to survive on a seemingly deserted tropical island.. J.J. See which A-listers missed out on one of the most popular TV shows of all time..
However, when Koreans marry, the wife never takes her husband's family name
The character of Sawyer was originally meant to be an older, slick, suit-wearing city con artist from Buffalo, NY. However, when Josh Holloway forgot a line at his audition and subsequently kicked a chair in frustration and loudly swore, the writers liked the edge he brought to the Sawyer character and decided to write Sawyer as more of a Southern, darker drifter instead.. Jin and Sun are married and share the family name "Kwon", which becomes an important plot point in the final season.
The strange opening credits were designed by JJ
In fact, it is not even permissible in Korea to marry someone with the same family name, except in rare circumstances.. [repeated line] Desmond Hume: See you in another life, brother.. Abrams on his laptop in black and white as an homage to The Twilight Zone..
Edited into Lost: The Journey (2005)
This is a really good program with very good writers. There are many subplots that keep you interested and waiting for next week for more answers to the many growing mysteries surrounding the island where a group of plane-crash survivors have wrecked.I also like how the writers go into the history of each main character, making them more interesting for the watcher. This looks to be a hit.There are a lot of mysterious goings-on at the island and a lot of drama between the characters of the show.Great to have some TV that doesn't involve CSI, cops, lawyers or doctors !
