There ’s a rationality that Lost ’s Nikki and Paulo decease so quickly after fan refuse to take their intromission into ABC ’s time - traveling / teleporting island play , according to show co - creator Damon Lindelof : The writers feel just the same style that the fans did , only earlier . The reasonableness for that ? The writers are the fans , apparently . Lindelof explained how the author ’ room can act as a petrie ravisher for their audience :
We ’re publish a television show that ’s supposed to be consumed by the mass . In the same way that a gladiator in the Roman bowl lived or give out base on whether or not he was entertaining , we feel like an instantaneous ovolo up , thumbs down response is huge for us . More importantly , the majority of the writer on Lost are fanboys . There ’s a ripple effect that occurs where we say , “ Nikki and Paolo are not work . We do n’t wish them , the consultation is n’t go away to like them . ” By the sentence the hearing set out sound off about Nikki and Paolo , we ’ve already write a script where they get buried alert .
Not that this means that the fans will always get their way of life , he warned . After all , there is a plan at work : “ The uber - mythology has to stay the same because there ’s stuff we ’ve congeal up that has to pay off , ” he explains … although even that architectural plan can deepen :
In our thinker , Mr. Eko was plump to be a fictitious character who made it to shut to the close of the show , but because Adewale Akinnuoye - Agbaje was so distressed being on the show , we had to say , “ Alright , life intervenes . Who else can we tell the story with ? Can we re - jigger Locke to have it be him , or can we make Benjamin Linus a minuscule bit more of a gentleman’s gentleman of faith ? ” You adapt the reference as you go .
Also , when someone gets a DUI , their character has to pass as penalisation . It ’s the law in Hawaii , apparently . Star Trek and Lost Producer Damon Lindelof on think about the Masses[AMCtv ]
