I lost all faith in the show when I found out it was created in 5 days and rewritten during filming.
Not only that but it was created by 2 20 something nerds and not a team of scientists, mathematicians, theologists. They picked one writer and the first available guy who could start by monday.
Now I know there is no grand scheme and everything has meaning, they are just making it up as they go.
So don't watch the bonus features or read this post!!
Me sad now

Yeah, I love the show but when I was watching the behind the scenes features and listening to the commentaries it sounded like a lot of the pilot was made up as they were going along -- for example, Locke being a paraplegic. It killed some of its mystique. I'm sure that everything at this point is very deliberate and structured.
