Alan Sepinwall writes about the unlikely creation of 'Lost'

In an excerpt from his book:

As the show continued to be wildly popular in those early weeks, Lindelof says, “I was completely and totally creatively crippled by people saying two things: 1) ‘How are they going to keep this up?’ And I had no idea. 2) ‘They better have really satisfying answers to all these mysteries.’ And I was like, ‘We have satisfying answers for all the character ones.’”

Yeah, that pretty much sums up ‘Lost.’
