Get “Lost”the complete series

The showor should we say the phenomenonknown as Lost came to an end on May 23, 2010. When it ended, many visitors complained that the final episode did not answer all of the questions set forth in the series. But then again, Lost has never been about answers. It’s been about the journey and the characters, and the Lost: The Complete Collection DVD set gives viewers the chance to experience that journey all over againor for the first time.Comprising 38 discs (one of which is hidden), the 229.99 box set contains all 121 episodes from 6 seasons, along with 32 hours of bonus features, three of which have never been seen before. These include Letting Go: Reflections of a Six-Year Journey, in which cast and crew members tour the island of Oahu, where the show was filmed, and Artifacts of the Island: Inside the Lost Prop House, where different people discuss the impact of certain props on the show’s mythology and on the characters. In The Lost Slapdowns, celebrity fans of Lost confront executive producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, and in Planet Lost, the show’s members take a look at the show’s worldwide popularity.In addition to all this, the collector’s set comes with a version of the board game Senet (as played by Jacob and the Man in Black), a replica of the Island, an ankh with a secret message from Jacob, a black torch light that reveals clues for finding the hidden disc, a Black Rock Journal entry written by the producers, and an episode guide to every episode of the series.A collectors set this extensive is appropriate for a show as sprawling as Lost. When the show premiered, there were 14 regular characters, and that number only grew with time. The impressive thing is how relatable all of the characters are. Relatively unknown actors like Daniel Dae Kim, Josh Holloway, Jorge Garcia, and Evangeline Lilly all gave impressive performances that solidified their characters as real people. Meanwhile, Party of Five alum Matthew Fox took his original bit role and turned it into one of the defining characters on the show.The only thing left to buy after the complete set is the Lost Encylopedia, the official licensed reference guide to the show. Covering all six seasons of the show, the book ranges from the expected (photos and character biographies) to the obsessive (every reference to the show’s ubiquitous Numbers). It’s a perfect resource for fans ready to restart the show from the beginning. For those who have never experienced the show before, though, we recommend holding off, and simply watching the show as it was meant to be seen, with all the mystery, wonder, and unanswered questions intact.
