Lost is a TV series about a group of stranded passengers from a crashed plane landing on a deserted island. This show is among the top rated ABC TV series in recent history and has appealed to the taste of the American viewers as proven by its stellar performance in the ratings department.
One of the main reasons Lost is popular is that the characters are defined and moulded that their existence very well completes the mix. There is not always a clear protagonist as well as antagonist in the story as the truth about the lives of the passengers unravels. One of the most notable characters in the series is the doctor Jack Shephard who was the de facto leader at the beginning as he tried to help cure those who had sustained injuries from the crash. Many other notable characters emerged as the show went on particularly as the secrets of each one of them were revealed.
