“The Wilds” is streaming on Amazon Prime Video. (Matt Klitscher/Amazon Studios) It’s impossible not to draw comparisons to “Lost” and “The Lord of the Flies” and even “The Truman Show” when watching the ambitious and cutting-edge series “The Wilds,” a 10-part survivalist soap opera on Amazon Prime Video. • A plane flying over the Pacific Ocean crashes, with a diverse group of passengers miraculously surviving and finding themselves stranded on a remote island that looks like paradise but contains dark secrets.
