The TV series Lost is one of the few mind blowing and outstanding shows with perfectly layered writing. Lost ended with six season in total. It features many themes that seem to always be changing, leaving the watcher always on edge. Lost was a very expensive show to produce. The pilot alone cost $10 million dollars to create, ending the first season at a total of $50 million dollars. 23.47 million viewers tuned in for the premier of season 2. Lost started off with cast members raking in $20,000-$40,000 per episode but after a few seasons the lead role played by Matthew Fox ended up getting paid $250,000 per episode in 2005. It starts off with 324 people on Oceanic Flight 815. After the plane crashes there are only 71 people alive and one dog on the island. At first the survivors believe that this is a man vs. nature situation. They soon find out that there is a mysterious force living on the island that appears to be kidnapping and or killing people on the island.

Born Unbiased “No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite,” says Nelson Mandela. Mandela’s words are often overlooked in the sense that hate is taught and learned not natural. Prejudice is extremely evident in society, but it does not come naturally; nobody is born with judgement or…
