This seems to be the major question these days, particularly from non-Lost fans. I can think of at least four other times it's been asked and at least one of them was in a thread titled pretty much the same as this: "How is Lost scifi??"
I'm guessing people keep asking because of the rumors of a "monster" on the island. I'm also guessing that no one asking has ever read/seen Island of Dr. Moreau, Lost World, or any one of hundreds of staple scifi classics dealing with mysterious things on mysterious islands.
Why is Lost scifi? Because the series creator says that there is a scientific explanation for everything that happens.
And in case folks have forgotten, scifi means SCIENCE fiction.
Lost sounds like scifi to me.
Sorry. And I know this thread is redundant, but I'm getting a bit sick of the question and I'm tired of the implication that Lost somehow doesn't deserve a folder because it "isn't scifi".
