It was a groundbreaking smash, but things got so toxic behind the scenes that even co-showrunner Damon Lindelof now says: “I failed.” A powerful excerpt from the new book ‘Burn It Down.’

    Wow that article was a huge eye opener. It’s always so heartbreaking to hear that the people making your favorite entertainment suffered so much behind the scenes. I don’t know why it’s so common.

    At least lindelof sounds like he acknowledges and regrets it. Cuse is in full denial mode.

      My thoughts exactly!

      I found the link via this article from the always thoughtful A R Moxon*: What Is Lost

      You’ll probably enjoy that too. :)
