Lost: 10 Best Episodes

The Pilot
Season 1, Episodes 1 and 2; Sept. 22 and Sept. 29, 2004
This is where we first meet Jack, Kate, Charlie and the other survivors of Oceanic Flight 815, who end up on a mysterious South Pacific island after their plane breaks apart in midair. Though the series evolved to become something much different, when I went back and rewatched it, I was impressed again by how much the pilot set up and how well and economically it did so.
