Netflix viewers have been left divided after a classic thriller finally got added to the platform.
It seems like people can't agree on what they collectively think about the latest addition to the streaming giant but one thing's for sure: they've got some very strong feelings about it.
The ABC TV series in question first hit our screens way back in 2004 and went on for another six seasons before coming to an end in 2010.

Created by Jeffrey Lieber, J. J. Abrams, and Damon Lindelof, the drama follows a group of survivors following a devastating plane crash who find themselves totally stranded on a mysterious island.
In time, the strangers are forced to work together for their survival when they realise that they are not alone on the island.
If you hadn't already guessed it, the series is none other than Lost.
The streaming giant announced the news earlier this morning (15 August), writing on X: "Wake up, all seasons of LOST are now playing on @NetflixUK."
Some people were clearly buzzing with one fan declaring: "One of the best television shows in history in my opinion."
"The greatest TV show ever," echoed a second while a third gushed: "Lost is on Netflix now and I’m about to rewatch it because it was sooo good in the beginning."
Another chirped: "Lost is out on Netflix?? What we saying … time to get busy for the weekend..."
And a final fan added: "Wait Lost is on Netflix? I really hope more people watch it now!"

Others, however, were clearly not so thrilled - namely due to the series' allegedly 'disappointing' ending.
"The ending is so weird. They need to redo it," demanded on X user.
A second hit out: "No one wants to see a show with the most disappointing ending ever."
And a third, particularly passionate critic, slammed: "Hours of my life I will never get back. Lost looked to be one of the best series of all time with the incredible pilot episode and first few seasons."
They added: "Then came the infinite perpetual pointless plots that never get answered and one of the worst finales in TV history."
Ouch.
"LOST has no business being on Netflix," quipped a final X user.
