Lost (TV Series 2004–2010) ⭐ 8.3 | Adventure, Drama, Fantasy
The show dives deep into espionage, terrorism, and the complex politics behind it all, but it’s also a character study about trust, obsession, and the costs of working in the shadows. Every season brings a new layer of suspense, though some are defin...
