# English Tv Series

TV series LOST unfolds on ITN every Sunday.




Well LOST is a very famous TV series and who hasn’t seen the words LOST written in white on a black background. It was shown on ABC in 2004 and ran on for 6 seasons until 2010. This TV series was first shown on ART TV in Sri Lanka and I was among the few to watch it. I am not 100% sure if it was shown on ART TV but I watched it on some channel on Sri Lankan Tv.

The plot line of this series is of a set of plane crash survivors who are stuck in an island.  Well as always fights start too occur in a race for survival. The plane after all was full of different kinds of people and they obviously will not fit in. It became famous all over the world and is usually said to be a must watch TV series of all time. I myself was not a big fan of the whole drama; it was far too much to take in at the time it was shown in Sri Lanka. However ITN will be showing it every Sunday at 10 pm.

With the fact that this drama is 6 seasons and has a total of 120 episodes of 40 to 45 minutes in length will of course take forever to end. I mean waiting one whole week for Sunday to watch the next episode is not very appealing to me. Moreover to make the drama more accessible it is dubbed in Sinhala. So this makes it possible to anyone to watch it. So anyone who is jobless at 10 pm on a sleepless Sunday night can watch some first hand action and adventure.
The characters you will be meeting 

The series has a lot of supernatural elements especially when it comes to why the plane crashed and about the tribal people who want to kill the survivors. Most of the characters are written off the middle of the series and you kind of feel it’s hard to emotionally connect with a particular character. The cast itself is multi cultural to some extent with Latin Americans and Koreans.

The series continuously reminded me of the reality show Survivor which was also shown on ART TV. The whole series was about how the survivors survive in the island and also how their lives are after this incident. Moreover it also has a part where they show the survivors in their afterlife.


Overall this is a good series and I would recommend you to give it a shot. However as the plot intensifies you will find yourself being annoyed at the fact that the series is only shown on Sundays. The overall waiting for one week to know the next part would obviously annoy you. Anyhow I would give this series 8.3/10 on my drama scale.
