Pros
  • Interesting behind the scenes looks at the cast and crew.
  • Interviews with the writers and producers.
  • Just enough hints to make reading the magazine worth while, but nothing to spoil.
  • There are great photos throughout the magazine.
  • Writers, cast, crew, and producers give insight as to how show ideas were formed and executed.
Cons
  • There are a lot of references to Alias (which I don't watch).
  • There are only five issues a year, so it's a long wait between issues.

Guide Review - LOST: The Official Magazine

I just love getting more information on my favorite show. While the magazine doesn't give much away in terms of storyline, it's full of great information as far as past storylines, cast, and crew. I love the sections that give insight into what the writers and producers are thinking.

The magazine is full of great pictures and behind-the-scenes peeks.
