@@ThatPianoNoob come on. Intial seasons were good and the opening episode is one of the best ones. That's how people got hooked and getting off the hook is really difficult. But after a couple of seasons even writers "Lost" their way... Amirite?
@@sammed92 ive only watched episode 1.. I've lost interest on those mystery shows years earlier because every single one of them either gets cancelled or devolves into absolute nonsense. Like Buffy, charmed, Stargate (for some reason), X-files; just off the top of my head.
I watched this video, because I thought it was going to be an elevator that got lost and they all found themselves in a building where they had never been before. But that would have been absurd.
I thought the elevator would get "Lost" too. But I was open to how that would happen. This was good but by titular expectation, it was a little disappointing. Good thing the Live version doesn't give sketch titles. 😂
Well the mid 00s to early 10s haha. 2004 - 2010. Back when we appreciated tv shows more as we had to wait months for answers, one episode a week, no binging a season in a day or two. That said the fact we used to watch 20 episodes of a tv show back then over 3 to 4 months a year and then they'd have a new season out 7 months later was just madddd. Lower budgets I guess. Imagine if a Netflix show or HBO show had 20 episode seasons in 2022.
The writers had to go to this sketch to give it some type of meaning because the guy was right: It had none. For me it was obvious by the middle of season 2. Stop watching it. I can spot tv-shit-shows a mile away. Where is this guy now? I didn't even knew who he was eheh.
First season: Best show ever Season Two: WTF? Stopped watching during season three. Huge disappointment. Kept adding more stuff without even trying to make sense of the earlier episodes.
If I remember correctly the whole premise of the show was these people crashed on this island, they were all very unhappy or “lost” in their lives before crashing. As time went on some of them found peace and happiness on the island and some them died on the island. The people who died on the island were meant to die and the folks who found happiness on the island would have been fine if they would have stayed, but instead they left the island and in turn lost what they had gained in isolation. In the end they all ended up dying and meet up in purgatory before crossing over together. The island was basically like Adam and Eve’s paradise and supernatural things were able to occur there. There were allot of different plot lines they took the show, it’s like multiple writers were vying for what the twist was going to be. They should have just stuck with the purgatory plot since it made the most since and before that hadn’t been done before.
You do not remember correctly. I'd try to explain it but i'd get two things wrong over three paragraphs and be pilloried with tomatoes thrown in my face so... there are video breakdowns out there. Though it's entirely possible at some point you were right.
You're close - a group of writers wrote a show with no plan for the ending, and a bad show was created. The truth is, there was no truth. There was no plot. There was no show. None of it every exited. What you thought was a show was actually just a mistake the whole time.
I actually had that one friend in the group who was the biggest LOST-Fan, but would always wait for the DVDs to be released with the German dub. The rest of us just pirated the show and he went nuts whenever we started talking about the show, which we did a lot. It was a real cultural phenomenon. Season 4-5 we had half a dozen people watching together and discuss every episode like it's a damn book club or something. Good show, good times.
GinoZump the island wasnt purgatory they weren't dead the whole time they survived on that island just go watch what jack's dad tell him at the final episode during the church scene
zTxmi it was purgatory dïpshit, their decisions on the island effect them and if they go to hell or heaven eventually when everybody dies on the island
OK, holy shit dude. That guy is so good looking, I can't stop looking at him. I don't find him attractive, he just looks so perfect. I really don't get why women are into Cooper, Gosling and all these guys.
I am not fan of copper or gosling. They seem pretty but I think they are just okay. I think Mathew is really good looking. I think people have diff taste.
Just finished LOST in Disney+. It's one of the best tv series really. Kind of shocked to see Evangeline Lily in it. All along I thought she was a new actress in the Hobbit, then Ant Man. It's like she haven't aged a bit. Still so beautiful.😆
For real. I expected there to be a few more lines of dialogue after the elevator doors opened - some sort of wrap up or final laugh - but instead they all just exit the elevator without saying a word.
-Wow Andy got it right 4 years before beforehand- -Wow Andy was in on it from the beginning- -Wow Andy figured it out ahead of time- Wow *LOST* was about an island that existed in the living world & the people who survived a plane crash _living_ on that island. Some made it off. John Locke even died after leaving the island, and his corpse was brought back. In the last season, the show started off showing that the island was destroyed. It was _THEN_ that they were all dead & in some sort of purgatory/afterlife. Where they were all reunited after having met in _REAL LIFE_
How did they all die? So the island was real and they were all on it but in the last season the island started to deteriorate and then they died and then were reunited in a purgatory/heaven? Sorry I stopped watching the show after the whole hatch plot line bc my life got stressful and I didn’t have TiVo.
@@courtneycallen it's a bit convoluted, but I'll give it a try. The show approached the concept of the afterlife /eternity as being distinct from time. So, the 2 things are not linked together. For example, if someone died at 10 p.m. last Tuesday. They might find themself waking up in the afterlife instantly, yet 30 yrs might have passed. This was demonstrated by how Some of the characters which had died in the earlier seasons, at various points throughout the course of the show, made appearances in the last season. It was portrayed by the show alternating between 2 completely different storylines. (similar to the use of flashback storytelling from previous seasons). It switched back & forth between 2 concurrent storylines. But, presented in a way that wasn't very clear to viewers until the finale. So, for the final season, it was as though there were 2 versions of reality. But as the season wrapped up...it became evident that the 2 story lines were *Time (life)* & *Eternity (afterlife)* . The storyline... on the time side of things... was just a continuation of the stories from previous seasons. The other storyline...on the eternity side of things... had the characters living a life in some kind of alternate/ dream-like reality. They were pretty much the same characters at their core, but lacking the experiences from the previous seasons which had shaped their connections to one another. While they did have moments of deja vu, they couldn't clearly recognize one another. In the final episode of the last season, they gradually all came to the same realization...of who they had been & that they were now dead & in the afterlife together. That's the shortest clearest way that I can describe it. It's also been awhile since I've seen Lost...& the last season is my least favorite.
@@allme2547 you are the greatest human ever! Thanks for taking the time to explain it to me!!! I looked up an article about the ending and I still didn’t understand it bc they didn’t tell it as elegantly and as clearly as you did! The only question I can think of right now is were the supernatural elements real? I vaguely remember a smoke monster that was gigantic but I don’t remember if it could actually be seen. I think when I watched the show I was assuming we were going to find out that they were somewhere like the Bermuda triangle. I know the Bermuda triangle is an actually some mysterious area of the world but I figured they were going to make it into an urban legend being real kind of thing. Do we ever see anyone get rescued or make it off the island or an explanation for things like how Locke was suddenly ambulatory? Sorry for the questions; I feel like I could hang out with you for a day and be enthralled by you explaining to me all the big plot lines of the show.
Lol, little did they know that Andy Sambergs character had partially solved the entire ending. Some of the characters were indeed in purgatory just not all, only the living could leave 🤣 This makes me feel old knowing this skit is 16 years old. I was obsessed with lost in my early teens. An evil teacher of mine spoiled the ending for those of us who didn't stay up in Ireland to watch the finale (the finale aired same time as the US to prevent spoilers, but most went to bed and watched the next day when it was shown on its usual UK/Ireland schedule). He done it out of pure spite, knowing we had invested years of our lives into the show. Damn I hate him still 12 years later and I'm a grown adult.
Third-best era in SNL history. 'Portlanida' is great and I never thought I'd like Fred Armisen as much as I do. Carrie Brownstein and him age gold, as was this cast regarding the aforementioned 'SNL'.
Pity on the people who watched all of lost and believed none of it happened (purgatory).. Jack's father said all of it happened I don't know why people are confused about this lol
It just had its 15 year anniversary for the pilot and there are a bunch of rewatch podcasts going back to watch it again. There are still a ton of fans that engage with the community.
Andy:"Purgatory". "It's purgatory, you all died in the plain crash but now you're all stuck in purgatory" Me: (who just finished Lost) Wow! Did he just predicted the plot and hit a bullseye on the theory Amazing!
I had a ton of friends who were really into it and they wouldn’t shut up about it. I gave in and tried to watch at least the first season but once I saw a guy get sucked into a jet engine that caused the engine to explode like an enormous bomb, I decided to call it quits. That being said, all my friends loved John Locke and there’s an episode with a flash sideways where John Locke gets hit by a car whilst in a wheel chair. I made my friends watch it over and over again cuz it made me laugh uncontrollably lol that was probably the greatest high light of my Lost viewing experience.
I think the biggest mystery in this sketch wasn't about the show Lost, but rather how Keenan Thompson could have been on SNL that long ago and still be on it now. He's very talented, but good grief. I don't think anyone else has ever been on SNL this long. He was on SNL the entire six years that Lost was on the air, and ever since it went off the air 13 years ago!
Only the secondary timeline in season 6 was purgatory, after they blew up the hydrogen bomb. The entire series up until that point, and including the continuation of the main storyline in season 6, happened in real life.
It wasn't purgatory. You misunderstood the ending. The Island exists but they had all died since being caretakers (Jack first in saving the Island from Mr Black/Djin/Smokie) and they were all "special" (as proved by the numbers and the Dharma group testing procedures) so they created the alternate reality/simulation/shared consciousness to meet up before they all actually moved on completely.
Mᴇᴢᴋᴀʟ Mᴜᴢɪɴɢᴢ Bizarrely, the definition of Purgatory is an intermediate place where souls reside before they move on… and it’s got to have people to look after it, like caretakers... Limbo has a completely different definition.

Have to admit I never watched a show with so many loose ends that was so entertaining . This was a top notch witty sketch , everyone one on the elevator nailed it! 🤣
I love how Armisen didn't just give spoilers to the people in the elevator but like half of America that night.

Why was I so sure that the elevator was going down?
Should have ended with Andy saying "no I told you, you all died and you're in purgatory, that's why this elevator never stops."
Wasn't that a docter who episode?.... it sure sounds like one
That would be genius, why didn't the skit have that?
It does, though.

You are something special, and always will be.🌹
I love how armisen just stays on the elevator
I think the biggest mystery in this sketch wasn't about the show Lost, but rather how Keenan Thompson could have been on SNL that long ago and still be on it now. He's very talented, but good grief. I don't think anyone else has ever been on SNL this long. He was on SNL the entire six years that Lost was on the air, and ever since it went off the air 13 years ago!
Maya calls herself the biggest fan yet she’s only half way through season 2
Need to watch Lost
Can we just point not only did Andy get the purgatory thing correct, but the island was in fact on
The toe of an enormous giant Anubis statue
Nope wasn't purgatory. The toe of a giant thing though...
Sounds like someone hasn’t finished the show...
Only the secondary timeline in season 6 was purgatory, after they blew up the hydrogen bomb. The entire series up until that point, and including the continuation of the main storyline in season 6, happened in real life.
Kris Weber yes but the point was that did in fact happen at the end and thus Andy was right
Show us receipts that proves your theory that they were dead the whole time. I really wanted to know how people came to this conclusion.
Fred is the best!! Miss him on SNL and Portlandia
dude walking out at :07 could play al gore in a biopic
I actually replayed it to get another look because I thought he looked like Gore, too.
@@dancepiglover same here lol. i was like, whoa, wait a sec...
Did Andy totally call it or was this made after the finale? I don't know which came first :/
It wasn't purgatory. You misunderstood the ending. The Island exists but they had all died since being caretakers (Jack first in saving the Island from Mr Black/Djin/Smokie) and they were all "special" (as proved by the numbers and the Dharma group testing procedures) so they created the alternate reality/simulation/shared consciousness to meet up before they all actually moved on completely.
Aaaaaactually I think Fred called it :)
Mᴇᴢᴋᴀʟ Mᴜᴢɪɴɢᴢ Bizarrely, the definition of Purgatory is an intermediate place where souls reside before they move on… and it’s got to have people to look after it, like caretakers...
Limbo has a completely different definition.
Andy is so smug because he knows the truth
Arthur BRIAND it's not the truth dude
The island was real

Wrong.
Seconds before Fred says 'you're the guy from lost.' I said the exact same thing. 😂😂😂
I was a huge Lost fan...I bought all 6 seasons DVDs. I watched it countless times but still scratching my head every time. 😂😂😂 I think I'm lost in it...
Nobody found it. It was not purgatory either. I see so many people in the comments who haven’t understood the lost ending even after all these years 🙄
I’m glad I already saw Seven
I love this skit for so many reasons... But mostly for the tongue-in-cheek jab at people who cry about spoilers well after something has aired.
damn snl had the best cast, what happened
The cast is still good.
People forgot punctuation and the show went to shit.
playz the show isn’t for uptight, alcoholic 40 year olds anymore, humour’s changed and so did the cast. Get over it.
cosmic lu to be fair it’s still pretty funny
People just read the cue cards with no acting now
Loved LOST and Matthew Fox
When you just want to ride the elevator but are still famous. Poor dude.
I had never seen the show but tuned in one time in French on Radio Canada. It was like season 2, half way through. I was lost, let me tell you.
Have to admit I never watched a show with so many loose ends that was so entertaining . This was a top notch witty sketch , everyone one on the elevator nailed it! 🤣
I love the Hitchcock effect at 5:00. Clever.
Fred stayed in the elevator at the end
Probably the best SNL crew !
So, no one is gonna mention that Al Gore looking dude that just got off the elevator.
They had a concept of an idea which wasn't good enough but thus show was so adductive and fun
andy got it right 4 years beforehand :D
"So now I'm the invisible man?" 😆
1:54 how close they are together seriously gives me anxiety
What a cast.
Lol this is relatable on all tv shows.
And books too.
"You seen that seven movie? That's Gwineth's head in a box" 🤣
Fred Armisen is the best!
In real life Fred is a scumbag sadly. It reminds me of what Miranda said to Carrie, that even the ugly ones are sleazeballs.
You’re beautiful
