This man is my personal hero.

[@Jayurba]

I know, it's my hero too. He basically makes me as a writer

[@Gonko100]

Huge respect for this guy.

_Lost_, the most addictive and best TV show ever. And so misunderstood... Sadly. No other show/movie like it. Very interesting video.

[@dariorock553]

THE BEST FUCKIN¨ TV SHOW EVER IS THE TWILIGHT ZONE. DUDE COME ON, IT¨S WAY BETTER THAN LOST. DON¨T GET ME WRONG, I¨M A HUGE FAN OF LOST. BUT EVEN I NeEd TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE TWILIGHT ZONE IS ON A WHOLE DIFFERENT LEVEL.

[@lobogryz8501]

Dario Gushi Yes, but LOST was a serialized show, a single story told in 6 seasons. It deserves praise for that. TTZ had very bad episodes, but it didnt matter cause it didnt affect the great ones. If LOST made a mkstake, it was carried on until the end.

[@michaelwolf8690]

@@dariorock553 I also disagree with the idea that Lost is the best show ever, but much respect for Twilight Zone, it's not even in the top 10. It was a serial show with a similar format to a half-dozen other shows, it borrowed VERY deeply from sci-fi short stories of it's time. In it's day it was THE show, since then, TV has come a long way.

[@michaelwolf8690]

There's actually a whole Genre of shows like Lost, many of them very good. Around season 5 pretty much every new network show was a mystery box ensemble cast series. If you liked Lost you might check out The 4400 or Haven, both great shows.

@@michaelwolf8690 I know, I've been researching since, but really no other show like _Lost_ if you ask me... It had something special.

The leftovers changed me

[@swans184]

Well me and my friends loved Lost! I made a bunch of my high school friends talking about last night’s episode at the lunch table; friends I still have to this day!

[@vibesmom]

As someone who has struggled, and will continue to struggle with depression my whole life, I can’t imagine having to deal with it out of the blue with no context for having gone through it before. I love the honesty in this conversation.

[@chrislawson1988]

Damon did a awesome incredible job on lost best show or one of best show ever. Definitely in top two or three of not one. Loved his other works too.

[@mickos_]

Lost is my favorite show ever and I stand by lindelof

[@stevem4306]

any links to the full interview?

[@usualsuspects42]

Why, oh why, around 8:02 does the interviewer feel the need to interject - JUST when DL was talking. Why, oh why do interviewers do this? It frustrates me to no end and they all do it - just when the interviewee is beginning to talk about something we all want to hear.

[@zxc-lq8un]

A hero!!

[@Spermofdog]

I hated him for a long time after what they did to Lost after middle of season 3, but after The Leftovers and each new interview he is one of the few genuinely creative people in modern entertainment that I actually like. Damon has vision and right amount of insanity. I wonder what's next for him?

[@trblemayker5157]

Good.

[@blackfang3000]

Well, the show ran 6 seasons! Not so lost anymore, huh?
