Free Download Emily St. James, Noel Murray, Natasha Soudek (Narrator), "LOST: Back to the Island: The Complete Critical Companion to The Classic TV Series"
English | ASIN: B0DG64HQHX | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~13:30:00 | 371 MB
Before it premiered in the fall of 2004, LOST looked doomed to be an expensive, disastrous plane crash of a TV show. Instead, LOST was a massive hit, debuting with the biggest audience for a new drama on ABC in over a decade, reaching heights of over 23 million viewers at its peak, and holding on to a hefty fan-base for its entire six-season run. The elements that made the series seem like a boondoggle proved, instead, to be a big part of its appeal. Audiences loved the exotic island setting, became invested in the morally compromised characters, and feverishly tried to unravel the show’s many mysteries.
In LOST: Back to the Island, TV critics and veteran LOST recappers Emily St. James and Noel Murray revisit what made the show such a success and an object of enduring cultural obsession, twenty years later. Through essays, episode summaries, and cultural analysis, they take us back to the island and examine LOST’s lasting impact-and its complicated, sometimes controversial legacy-with a clear-eyed and lively investigation.
