Umm, Lost is partly science fiction.
No. I was never that much interested in it when it first came out. And just like some other shows that have been (ad)ded to death as i.e.; Sienfeld, Everybody loves Raymond, Ugly Betty, and I can go on.... But that is not the point. As in wrestling, what does this show have to do with science fiction?

time travel, teleportation, psychic abilities, smoke monster, communication with dead people, disappearing island...

All this takes place on an deserted island w/ 40'ish survivors(+)? no wonder it never caught my eye.
Lost is definitely part science fiction. As was mentioned, it contains a lot of time travel and supernatural occurances. I don't think you get what kind of show it is. Understandable since you've never seen it, but it's a show that is best described as a sci-fi drama.
Um...what zenophite said. If you had ever seen the show, you'd know it DEFINITELY has science fiction and fantasy elements to it.
Time travel, communicating with dead people, a giant monster made of black smoke ---not exactly run of the mill stuff.
How can you say it's declining if you've never seen the show? Anyone who is watching it will tell you that season 4 was absolutely mind-blowing and the best season YET.
And, people in their 40s? Actually, there are characters in their 20s, 30s, 40s and characters in their 50s. It's a fairly diverse bunch.

Considering that two of LOST's characters can timetravel and communicate with the dead, I'd say that LOST is firmly scifi. The show did begin more like a drama, though, and more and more scifi elements surfaced in the show as the years went by.
Of course. Silly me!

What, is your viewing restricted by the ages of the characters on the show... ?
Ageism and making uninformed opinions on a show you've never seen. You win.
I think he was actually referring to the approximate number of survivors from the crash of Flight 815.
Umm, there's teleportation machines, time travel machines, all sorts of science fictiony stuff.
Thank You, that was exactly what I was referring to.
Yeah, but they only focus on a few of them.
