Even before Lost, there was early forums and Usenet newsgroups for discussing TV shows. I recall shows like DS9, Babylon 5 and especially X-Files were popular at the time. And X-Files probably was the first Lost, unable to come to a satisfying conclusion (even after Chris Carter got multiple tries).
