Incase you didn’t know, the numbers above are the cursed numbers of ABC’s drama series Lost, created by JJ Abrams (creator of Alias) and Damon Lindelof. The series first premiered back in 22nd of September, 2004.
the series is about some people who crashed in a plane flying from australia in some deserted island and they’re injured, out of food and simply lost in the middle of nowhere.
I’m so addicted to the series (yes, it’s addictive) and currently watching the 21st episode of Season 2 (which is 24 episodes) and waiting the 3rd season next september.
