Amazon.com 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.---Ellen Kim

Lost Season 2 came in perfect condition! February 7, 2010 Andrew Delrosario (Fremont, CA) I appreciate the speedy delivery and great condition the Blu-Ray disks came in. Will do business again!
Loved It January 23, 2010 Retired Guy I am a fan of the Lost series and am watching it again on Blu ray. Season 2 of Lost on Blu Ray has outstanding audio and a great picture. I would recommend this to all Lost fans and to those who are curious about Lost. I remember watching season 2 a few years ago and feeling like we didn't need that much information about the character's pasts. It all comes together as you keep watching. This is probably the greatest series that I have seen (and I loved the Sopranos)!!
Wonderful series December 28, 2009 F. B. NEVES That's a real great series, and this top quality blu-ray edition is just what it deserves.

***** SOME SPOILERS IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE SEASON YET******
Lost season 2 had alot to live up to. Season 1 was a dynamic debut for a show that captured my imagination right from the get go with the 'monster' crashing through the jungles in the "Pilot" episode. But, for all the upside of season 2, it just didn't ever seem to get on track. There were some struggling, worthless storylines here that didn't add anything to the overall story arc of the show. However, there were some upsides: we finally get to see the hatch, we meet new characters (Desmond, "Henry Gale", and the tailies), we get a glimpse of The Others, and some more questions along with a few answers.
I personally would've hated this show if I had watched it on television. Luckily, I got into Lost late so I watched this on DVD (and now blu-ray) so I didn't have to wait for weeks to pass for a new episode or watch reruns. So if you turned the show off and gave up, try it again here. It also helps that it looks pretty damn good on blu-ray. There are some areas where it is extremely grainy, but most of the time it is great looking.

"Fire + Water: Anatomy of an Episode" (31:46)
A great look at making an episode and how far in advance some of the ideas are. From the writer's room to set design, this is a great way to see all the effort that goes into the smallest of scenes. I just wish they would've chose a different episode to follow. "Fire + water" is the worst episode of season 2, so it seems puzzling.
"Lost: On Location" (62:52
13 different looks at certain episodes. usually these are focused on a certain scene of an episode. Not the most entertaining, but has a very production oriented feel to it. So if you like learning about cameras and set designs, this will probably be a favorite of yours.
"The World According Sawyer" (4:31)
Saawyer and the cast talk about some classic Sawyer sayings and comments.
"The Lost Flashbacks" (3:25)
Just three flashacks here, none of which are worthwhile. Completely useless addition here.
"Deleted Scenes" (21:50)
19 deleted scenes. Much better than the absymal season 1 deleted scenes, but still nothing that needs to be scene or watched to understand anything concerning the mythos of the show.
"Lost Bloopers" (4:05)
Exactly what it sounds like.
"Channel 4 UK Promo" (1:06)
A really great piece of work here. Too bad it's only one minute, but it's still a fresh look at Lost in a way that I never thought they would (or could) pull off. It's a neat piece.
"Lost Connections" (no time)
A confusing, difficult to navigate game that shows you all the connections between the characters. This could've beena great feature, but they really screwed up the presentation and the functions of it. Alot of people will get frustrated and turn this off very quickly.
"Mysteries, Theories & Conspiracies" (10:17)
Sounds interesting, but it really isn't. I was looking forward to see what secrets would be discussed, but all that's covered is what fans and TV personalities think. Very disappointing to say the least.
"Secrets from the Hatch" (15:47)
Another feature that has a great name and made me eager to watch, but quickly disappointed me (as did alot of the features here). Secrets from the Hatch... what a crock. All they cover is the making of the hatch, some items in the hatch and how they wanted it to look. It is interesting, but needs a different name.
The commentaries are give and take. "What Kate Did" is a terrible commentary as Josh Holloway (in his first commentary) does little talking and Evangeline Lilly just giggles away. "Man of Science, Man of Faith" and "The 23rd Psalm" are the best of the set because they include Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse (and Jack Bender on "Man of Science") and they actually give useful information.
If you have Lost season 2 on DVD you might not need to upgrade this set. I own both and I was a little disappointed by what they give you here with the blu-ray release. Especially since this set came out years after the DVD I figured they would've loaded this up with features, but I was wrong. And for the love of god, where is the booklet?! The DVD version has a booklet, but not the blu-ray? Why? Now fans have to just guess - or look up online - what episodes are on what disc. Completely ridiculous. Feels kind of like a quick cash in special feature wise, but the show is terrific (but so far the worst season of the first five).
9.2/10 "OUTSTANDING"
Looks awesome in blu-ray October 1, 2009 Michael J. Penny I am already a devoted fan of Lost so I knew what I was getting into when I bought the second season. The picture and sound is crisp and clear. I love the season play feature which allows you to return to the same place on the disc even if you take the disc out of the player. I haven't watched any of the extras yet, and probably won't so I can't comment on that.
