What was in the Hatch? The cliffhanger from season one of Lost was answered in its opening sequences, only to launch into more questions as the season progressed. That's right: Just when you say "Ohhhhh," there comes another "What?" Thankfully, the show's producers sprinkle answers like tasty morsels throughout the season, ending with a whopper: What caused Oceanic Air Flight 815 to crash in the first place? As the show digs into more revelations about its inhabitant's pasts, it also devotes a good chunk to new characters (Hey, it's an island; you never know who you're going to run into.) First, there are the "Tailies," passengers from the back end of the plane who crashed on the other side of the island. Among them are the wise, God-fearing ex-drug lord Mr. Eko (standout Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje); devoted husband Bernard (Sam Anderson); psychiatrist Libby (Cynthia Watros, whose character has more than one hidden link to the other islanders); and ex-cop Ana Lucia (Michelle Rodriguez), by far the most infuriating character on the show, despite how much the writers tried to incur sympathy with her flashback. Then there are the Others, first introduced when they kidnapped Walt (Malcolm David Kelley) at the end of season one. Brutal and calculating, their agenda only became more complex when one of them (played creepily by Michael Emerson) was held hostage in the hatch and, quite handily, plays mind games on everyone's already frayed nerves. The original cast continues to battle their own skeletons, most notably Locke (Terry O'Quinn), Sun (Yunjin Kim) and Michael (Harold Perrineau), whose obsession with finding Walt takes a dangerous turn. The love triangle between Jack (Matthew Fox), Kate (Evangeline Lilly) and Sawyer (Josh Holloway), which had stalled with Sawyer's departure, heats up again in the second half. Despite the bloating cast size (knocked down by a few by season's end) Lost still does what it does best: explores the psyche of people, about whom "my life is an open book" never applies, and cracks into the social dynamics of strangers thrust into Lord of the Flies-esque situations. Is it all a science experiment? A dream? A supernatural pocket in the universe? Likely, any theory will wind up on shaky ground by the season's conclusion. But hey, that's the fun of it. This show was made for DVD, and you can pause and slow-frame to your heart's content. Just try and keep that head-spinning to a minimum. On the DVD Commentaries by various cast members and producers reveal little other than the occasional easter egg (the Dharma logo on the shark fin, Walt's mumbling translating to "Don't push the button; the button is bad" backwards). But disc seven opens with an eerie Hanso Foundation instructional video, leading you to eight hours of bonus features, including cast members' own theories, deleted scenes, and featurettes on specific episodes. It's all well and good for Lost fanatics, but if you want the cream of the crop, check out: "Lost Connections," an interactive feature that reveals how all the islanders are actually linked (for instance, one of the officers who captured Sayid during the Gulf War is Kate's father); a Channel UK promo for the show directed by David LaChappelle in which cast members suck in their cheeks and, dressed in evening wear, tango in slow motion as if in a Calvin Klein ad (it has to be a joke, right?); and "The World According to Sawyer," which strings together each of the un-PC nicknames and pop culture references spewed by Holloway's character. Favorites include "Chewie" for Jin and "Ponce de Leon" for Ana Lucia. It's by far the cherry on top of a sweet dessert. --Ellen A. Kim

 Lost Season 2 June 12, 2010
Sarah Hitchcock
Season 2 leaves you with the same cliff-hangers that got you hooked on the first season! It's full of adventure, mystery, and fun.

More answers, and more questions May 12, 2010

This is the whole premise of lost! They will keep answering questions only to cause more confusion! Season 2 really turns on the mystery juice and introduces the damn hatch! That hatch was so freaking annoying, but it does lead to some excellent plot elements and characters. Oh and we get to see if they were any other survivors or not. If you're a lost fan, chances are you already know what happens here but if you're new to it (like i was) then keep going it only gets better and more frustrating.
LOST -Second Season May 9, 2010

I think Lost is a very interesting series. I liked the 1st season better but I'm glad I got the 2nd season. I only buy DVDs from Amazon and I have NEVER been unhappy and I save so much money. I will never go back to buying DVDs in the stores...Used or new through Amazon is the only way...
Season 2 Improves on the First Season March 26, 2010
JMM (Florida)
As a huge fan of the first season of Lost, I was anxious to get started watching Season 2. Season One ended with two major questions: "Where did the Others take Walt?" and "What is inside the hatch?". One of these questions is answered in Season Two's opening episode, titled "Man of Science, Man of Faith". There are many great episodes this season, but the most unique is "The Other 48 Days", when we learn about the people on the tail section of the plane, and how their fight to survive on the island and their struggle with the Others is not all that different from that of our main cast of survivors. Around halfway through the season, we introduce a new character, "Henry Gale", played by the fantastic Michael Emerson. The season finale provides an explanation of what caused the crashing of Oceanic Flight 815. Season 2 of Lost is a must see!
As with the first season's DVD set, Season 2 has seven discs - six discs full of episodes, with one disc for bonus material. The best piece of bonus material in the set is the documentary "Fire + Water", a detailed look at the production of an episode from concept to completion. "Lost Connections" is an interactive feature that shows the past and present connections of any two characters - but it is very annoying to navigate through. "The World According to Sawyer" is the funniest bit on the bonus disc; it's a 3-minute montage of Sawyer's insults and pop culture references. There is a booklet that gives each episode title and gives a brief plot description. The packaging is high-quality compared to other DVD box sets that I've seen. Overall, this is a great show with adequate bonus material.
