Manifest (2018)
TV Show
First aired
Pick this if the part of Lost you loved was the passenger list: the idea that a single flight bound strangers together for a reason. Montego Air Flight 828 lands after a bumpy few hours to find more than five years have passed on the ground, and its returnees start hearing callings that push them into each other's lives. It is a broadcast-network show through and through, warmer and soapier than most on this list, with family drama carrying as much weight as the puzzle.
It nearly became a cancelled-mid-sentence casualty, but after NBC dropped it Netflix funded a 20-episode fourth season, and the finale explains why the plane vanished. Opinions on how satisfying that explanation is are split.
