Let's make this birthday one to remember.

66 years old (Born on March 22, 1959)

Happy Birthday, Carlton Cuse! May your celebrations be filled with fewer mysteries than the island of "Lost," and may you never have to explain another smoke monster or polar bear again. Your storytelling genius has kept us guessing for years—though we're still debating that finale!

From crafting intricate plots alongside Damon Lindelof on a deserted tropical paradise (with questionable vacation packages), to thrilling audiences recently with hits like "Jack Ryan" and "Locke & Key," you've consistently proven you're one step ahead—even if we sometimes feel as confused as Hurley at Dharma orientation. Here's hoping this birthday is timelessly epic!
