In season five of LOST - apparently the penultimate season - there are some interesting changes. The regular flashbacks of previous seasons are replaced with a new twist - time travel or time shifting when the island goes on the blink, after Ben tried to move the island at the finale of season 4. Our heroes are tossed around in time before settling in the mid 1970s when Locke manages to stop the shifts.
I don't really want to tell you anything more about the plot because with LOST, secrets and clues and working things out as you go along is everything, it's difficult not to get drawn into trying to work out one character's relationship to another, or trying to work out what might happen, so I'll allow you to experience that for yourselves instead of giving too much away in a series synopsis. Suffice to say, there are plenty of twists and turns and surprises to be enjoyed from finding out more about the dark past of Charles Widmore and Ben Linus, to finding out what happens to Kate, Locke, Sawyer and Jack.
The storyline is gripping; the characters are likable and are endlessly watchable. It's certainly difficult when watching the series not to keep watching it episode after episode as each instalment leaves the viewer with a cliff hanger that you'll feel you need instant clarification of, naturally as the show tends to focus on different storylines each episode, you might still find yourself waiting one or two more episodes before you find out what you wanted to know. It can be infuriating at times but it'll keep you watching LOST well into the small hours of the morning, most probably night after night until you reach the season finale.
LOST boasts a very strong cast and the actors are always at the top of their game. It's interesting to see new characters blend seamlessly into the mix, with their own backstories and their own uniquely personal character arcs and motivations. It's also interesting to see characters that have been at the forefront of previous seasons now take a backseat while other characters now have larger roles to play. Naturally this must be good for the actors but it's also good for the audience as of course everyone will have their favourite and least favourite characters.
Ultimately, even if season five doesn't quite reach some of the highs of seasons three and four (perhaps because it begins quite slowly), it is testimony to LOST in general that the show nonetheless remains totally unmissable.
