LOST -the iconic TV series- Legacy, etc

It's pretty interesting to look at the mostly divergent success path since the show, as far as the writers/producers v the cast. Certainly hasn't been all hits for the main writers, but they carry a ton of clout still (imo)...while the cast, outside of Evangeline Lilly, has been pretty spotty--though that is probably judging too heavily for commercial standouts...
I think Lindlehof learned valuable lessons and is now one of the surefire show runners (The Leftovers is an all time great show)
Most of the actors were character actors who kept doing that
Seemingly people just didn’t like working with Matthew Fox so he flamed then faded
‘Sawyer’ is the only one who really surprised me - not sure why he didn’t make it bigger
