This article analyzes the television series Lost from two perspectives. The first characterizes its structure as a transmedia narrative, a format resulting from convergence culture, emerging in our time with the mass content and media that surrounds us. This means that the various existing texts needed for the performance of the viewer, to work and thus create new meanings. In addition, some elements in the series are correlated to issues raised by postmodernity; in that way, proposing to demonstrate how the narrative presented reproduces situations of reality in their fiction, which provides a Post-Modernist subject identification with the series.
