A whole bunch of us got lost in “Lost,” the terrific TV series that just ended a seven year run. It almost never made sense, but we did not care. It is too soon to do a quiz based on the show, but we can “lost” anyway.
- Who played the mother on the TV series “Lost in Space”?
- Who won an Oscar in 1946 for his performance in “Lost Weekend”?
- What major league pitcher lost the most games in his career?
- What mythical land was celebrated in the novel “Lost Horizon”?
- A classic song about loss is “The Man Who Got Away.” Judy Garland sang it, Harold Arlen wrote the music, but who wrote the lyrics?
- Who lost the 1968 US Presidential election to Richard Nixon in 1968?
