History WMG / Lost

Think about it. A huge cast of characters with a large number of secrets, stranded on an island. Gradually, this is revealed to be a set-up for a complex MythArc. It's amazing that the show drew such a huge audience. The assumption was probably that they'd draw a small but devoted fanbase and then cancel after half a season with an amazing set-up but nothing explained - like ''Series/DayBreak'' or ''Series/{{Journeyman}}''. The fans would then buy loads of UsefulNotes/{{DVD}}s and merchandise in an effort to bring the show back, while spouting theories, and the producers would swim in their money. When the show caught on, they were totally unprepared and have had to wing-it ever since. It was SpringtimeForHitler, TV exec style.

** The other name/number correlations may refer to The Psalms, or some other Biblical or non Biblical connection to that person.

Lapidus made it to Guam, but brought Miles and Richard along with him. Miles used his diamonds to buy a building that they converted into a detective agency. Richard is the face, Miles is the brains, and Lapidus is the muscle. Together TheyFightCrime! Hurley and Ben show up from time to time to act as magical [[Series/StarskyAndHutch Huggy Bears]].

Maybe she wanted a way to destroy all of the other people Out There who were bad for the Island and for her sons. She could kill an entire settlement and fill in a well while the Man in Black was briefly away, perhaps she could use her knowledge from being the Source's Guardian and the power that killed the settlers to fix the wheel. Perhaps she wanted a way out to KillEmAll once her son took over her duty of guarding the Heart, but couldn't let herself leave until someone was guarding the Heart for her and Jacob's brother was safely stuck on the island.

[[WMG: At the end of the finale, [[TheSimpsons they'll all be rescued by, oh let's say Moe.]]]]

[[WMG: Let's discuss Jacob's {{plan}} for a second.]]

And [[Literature/PeterPan Neverland]]. And Skull Island. And the Island of Doctor Moreau. And the Island from ''Series/{{The Prisoner|1967}}''. And Nomanisan from ''The Incredibles'', with the monster being another Omnidroid prototype. And Avalon from [[Main/KingArthur Arthurian mythology]]. Seriously, how many uncharted islands can there ''be'' on Earth?

* After verification, when Jack and Hurley were at the lighthouse, if you were looking carefully you could see that the name associated with the number [[OneHundredAndEight 108]] was Wallace. I love Wild Mass Guesses.

* Also revealed in the 6'th season premiere is the fact that [[spoiler:Jacob's rival is the Monster, AND an EldritchHorror. This makes the Monster C'thulhu.]]

[[WMG: The Island is the American government's version of The Village from Series/ThePrisoner]]

The Smoke Monster is weak against Sonic things so an army of bats using supersonic should kill or at least make him hit himself in confusion. Alternatively SonicTheHedgehog will kill the Smoke Monster.

* Some of them were transplanted from [[LordoftheRings the Old Forest]].

* Alternately, the Island is somewhere on the [[Main/OnePiece Grand Line]].

[[WMG: The flash-sideways universe is the same place that [[Series/LifeOnMars2006 Sam Tyler]] and [[Series/AshesToAshes Alex Drake]] were sent to.]]

[[WMG:The Island is a part of the KingdomHearts Multiverse.]]

** {{Jossed}} by WordOfGod. The "X" in "LA X" refers to [[spoiler:the AlternateReality.]]

* [[TheUntouchables They are dead. Their families are dead. Their houses are burnt to the ground.]]
