Across whole show
The character Sun was created specifically for Yoon-jin Kim, after she auditioned for the role of Kate but the writers felt she was not right for the role.
Jorge Garcia (Hurley) missed his sister's wedding to film the show.
In series 2, episode 2, at around the 35 minute mark when the camera goes underwater to show the shark swimming past, it has got the Dharma logo on the back end of it.
Sawyer was not originally Southern - Damon Lindelof described the original character plan as a 'slick, city con man.' It was changed specifically for Josh Holloway.
Evangeline Lilly almost wasn't cast as Kate. As a Canadian citizen, problems arose regarding her visa and Screen Actors' Guild paperwork. She managed to get everything in order the day before the pilot began shooting.
Born to Run (series 1)
When Kate runs out of the MRI room, if you look closely at the sign, instead of saying "Medical Resonance Imaging" as it should, it says "Medical Resonance ImagINing". A clue, perhaps? Too big to be an unnoticed mistake.
The Moth (series 1)
In the midst of withdrawal, the third time Charlie asks Locke for his stash Locke finally hands it to Charlie, who stares at the bag of heroin. On the DVD commentary, Dom Monaghan remarks that while he holds the bag of heroin (really brown sugar, but hey) he's "doing a Gollum" - using Andy Serkis's portrayal of Gollum, and his desire for his "Precious" as the basis for Charlie's intense need for the drug.
Pilot (1) (series 1)
When the idea was to kill off Jack in the pilot, the writers discussed Michael Keaton for the role.
The production budget for the 2-hour pilot was $12 million, which is far greater than most TV shows. This led to Disney firing Lloyd Braun, the ABC Entertainment Chairman, for greenlighting the show, which has now become one of ABC's biggest hits in years.
Man of Science, Man of Faith (series 2)
During the opening scene, when the camera cuts to the cabinet of drugs (shortly before the explosion heard in the distance), all the bottles of drugs have 'the numbers' on them - '4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42'. Maybe obvious to some but worth looking out for.
Exposé (series 3)
The Medusa spider is not an actual spider species. It most likely got its name from the mythological creature 'Medusa' that instantly paralyzed people by looking at them and turning them into stone.
