'The Passage' Season 1 bears uncanny resemblances to 'Lost'

Amy could help restore 'the cure' and an atmosphere of peace and harmony, thus evolving from a mere survivor to the final hero, the way Desmond had in 'Lost'

FOX's new show 'The Passage', based on Justin Cronin's best-selling trilogy of the same name, draws inspiration from a multitude of things. From mingling together the genres of sci-fi, supernatural, and dystopian flicks, to its simplicity when its comes to the lucid pace it goes about, the best part about 'The Passage' is its ability to not leave viewers confused in an era of only multilayered stories being considered as gripping. But while 'The Passage' makes for a thrilling ride on a slow day, its subplots are packed with reminiscent angles from other dystopian flicks surrounding the supernatural. One such epic parallel the show draws can be seen through the character of Dr. Jonas Lear, played by Henry Ian Cusick, as the upcoming third episode will paint him in a light quite similar to that of Cusick's character Desmond, on the ABC show 'Lost'.
