Lost

Episode 32. Pilot's Club honors the 20th anniversary of Lost with a look at its two-part pilot! We discuss the expensive and hasty gamble that ABC took on this pilot, how this compares with the pilots of other shows with huge casts like Game of Thrones or Shogun, our top hunks, and we wonder why nobody ever called Boone "the pen guy."

What is The Pilot's Club?

The Whatnauts present The Pilot's Club, a Patreon exclusive podcast all about the first episodes of television shows. Join Melissa and Kyle as they watch and discuss a variety of TV pilots that catch their interest for a number of reasons. Some of the pilots may not have made it to air, others may have been particularly expensive to make, maybe the series was changed drastically after filming, or even something else just as interesting.
