Hello Javi!!

Everytime I watch the credits I am amazed at how MANY producers the show has. Maybe I am wrong but other shows have fewer, don't they?And it seems that every writer of the show is also a producer of it.

I always assumed that the term "executive producer" means that these persons (according to imdb.com they are J.J. Abrams & Damon Lindelof and also Jack Bender, Carton Cuse & Bryan Burk. Those three were new to me!) are making strategic decisions and a have the final word on "Lost".

Since I have no idea how your industry works:
1. What is the task of a producer at "Lost"? (Co-Producer, consulting producer, supervising producer, producer) How much can they decide?

2. And how does the hierarchy in the Lost-Offices look like?
