MILESTONE

2016 marks the 12th year since the launch of the epic series, LOST.


Your decision to be, have and do something out of ordinary entails facing difficulties that are out of the ordinary as well. Sometimes your greatest asset is simply your ability to stay with it longer than anyone else. — Brian Tracy


So goes this this blog, one of the few small corners of the internet which still actively discusses the series.


In 2013, the LOST producers decided to finish discussing their series in one last rant while discussing the ending of Breaking Bad. At the Paleyfest TV convention, there was  a LOST 10th anniversary panel. It was more of an awkward high school reunion than a ground breaking discussion of the series.


Since then, LOSTheory continues to post stories, theories, science stories that may tie into the LOST-centric fan communities when the series was at its peak.  This site which started in Season 6, now has posted 1,097 articles. Two years ago, we did not know how much longer we would continue writing posts. But we just hit the milestone of 20,000 unique page views. There still appears that there are fans who still miss the series, and who still want to engage their minds on the ramifications of it.

For the LOST fan community, nothing really has replaced it. No other show has had the layers of complexity, the clues, and the rabid fan theories and story lines.


LOST is like an old friend that you want to stay in touch with even though real life has started to occupy more and more of your time and energy.
