The mania surrounding “Lost” continues. It has emerged that the series finale now holds the record of being the most downloaded TV show in the history of TV. The final two episodes, within 20 hours of appearing online, were downloaded some 900,000 times. Quite a bit, yes. → Read More

Lost will wrap up this Sunday. It’s about time, too. At least the story is actually ending, rather than drifting along until the show is canceled because of bad ratings. But still, I feel like there are too many loose ends that will not be answered tomorrow. This isn’t a sign of a clever mystery. It’s simply bad storytelling and so I submit to you the four reasons why Lost is… → Read More

Okay, so this video can basically bring anyone up to speed on Lost and so it probably deserves a *Spoiler Alert* tag… → Read More
I already made my feelings known about last night’s Lost. It was pure garbage and didn’t answer a damn thing besides the fact that the writers are clearly taking the easy way out. I read a bunch of rants online today expressing the same feeling but this one by Jacob Hall on SciFi Squad is the best. Seriously. He nails it.
**Major spoilers ahead** → Read More
Last nights Lost episode left me confused, bewildered, and frustrated. I mean, what the hell was that? I was sure I understood 75% of the show’s happenings last week, and while I’m still confident I know how it’s going to end, last night’s episode totally screwed up the show’s continuity for me.
Anyway, that is all. The graph is the post. It’s supposed to be funny and would be if it wasn’t true. → Read More
John and I are fed up with Lost. We don’t know what the hell is going on anymore. The show is supposed to be wrapping up soon, but each new epsisode presents more questions than it answers. We need some help. Here are our two biggest questions we’re hoping someone can answer.
1: Is island Desmond the same person as alternate-reality Desmond. Like are they of one mind and conscience?
2: What job… → Read More
The final season of Lost starts in mere hours and here’s a video that should bring you up to speed. → Read More
Lost is getting ready to wrap up starting tomorrow. Thank goodness, right? But in case you’re one of the three people in the world that didn’t get caught up in the show but wanna check it out in all its high-def glory now, your time is coming in August when the massive 36-disc set drops. 36 discs!?! Wha? → Read More
Lost is about to start back up again and Amazon has the first five seasons on sale today. How convenient. Actually the deal is rather nice. You get a whole lot of Blu-ray on the cheap. → Read More
http://c.brightcove.com/services/viewer/federated_f9/6555681001?isVid=1&publisherID=769341148 Please heed my warning. Do not watch the video above unless you really want to know the ending of Lost, which was of course revealed at the show’s Com-Con event. Apparently the script was suppose to be read on Jimmy Kimmel Live after the final episode’s airing next year; Josh Holloway had… → Read More
Either you love Lost or you hate it. I don’t think there is a middle ground with this show. True fans might want to get a piece of the show before its gone after the final season this year. The auction company, Profiles in History, released some of the show props that will be auctioned and will be giving a sneak preview at San Diego Comic-Con.

Buy two seasons on Blu-ray and you save $20; buy three seasons and you save $30; buy four seasons and you save $40. You’ll need to enter the promo code LOSTBLUS to see the discount. → Read More
Well, to be fair, pretty much everybody loves “Lost”. I for one am happy that there’s some decent sci-fi on television that won’t be violated and then canceled because of a talking car. Popular Mechanics is expressing their love in their own particular way though. → Read More
Bad news, “Lost” fans. Well, those of you who download 720p caps of the show. It looks like ABC, per juicy message board rumors, is doing something screwy with the video as it airs in order to fit in more commercials—removing frames after the 2:3 pulldown, that is. So, when cappers convert the video into bite-sized x264 chunks for us, it results in jerky playback. (Dupe frames that are… → Read More
Oh. My. God. Are you ready for Season 5 of Lost? Are you?!? I can’t wait. Until a few weeks ago, I totally forgot about the show. Then, all of a sudden, ABC started running promos and now I cannot wait for tonight’s season premier. Get yourself into the mood too with this very well done trailer made by a fan. It’s 4:00 of nail biting, stomach wrenching, LOST goodness. I can’t wait! → Read More
It seems like forever ago season 4 of Lost wrapped-up but the first batch of season 5 previews are slowly becoming available. Above is a look at Jack and Ben where Ben confirms that the island really did move. After the jump is Kate going back on the run. Oh boy, I hope they wrap the show up properly. → Read More
A little personal information about me: I’ve never seen a single episode of Lost. I understand it’s quite popular, though. A co-worker of mine at a previous place of employment was so adamant that I join the Lost-watchers club that she leant me the first season and then asked me every day what I thought of the show. After a month of not even taking the first disc out of the sleeve, I returned… → Read More
I’ve been playing Ubisoft’s “Lost: Via Domus” for a few minutes and so far it’s not too shabby. But, then again, I’m a huge fan of the show so I may be playing favorites. The game begins with you on the plane experiencing the crash from the perspective of survivor of Flight 815. You wake up in the jungle and can’t really remember too much of what happened. → Read More
Lost, blah blah Ben blah blah smoke monster blah. Blah blah Whitmore blah blah (“NOT PENNY’S BOAT!” said the hobbit) blah blah! Cash also says it is absolutely possible that a plane’s black box would still be in working condition after four months on the ocean floor. The current record goes to a recorder that, after nine years at the bottom of the Mediterranean, was perfectly… → Read More
http://www.collegehumor.com/moogaloop/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=1739531&fullscreen=1 You watched LOST last night, and it was good. But ever notice there are no opening credits for that show? It’s artistic choice, and we support it. But what if it did? And it was in the early ’90s or late ’80s? It’d undoubtedly be the video above. Kudos to Streeter and his crew at College… → Read More
CAV has some video from the upcoming Ubisoft Lost game, which I suspect will be a stinker on the level of TMNT for the NES. However, they do offer up some plot details including a secret “Hot Coffee” cut scene involving Jack, Ben Linus, the Smoke Monster, and Charlotte. It gets weird but near the end but not nearly as freaky as the Desmond/Crazy Jungle Dinosaur love scene near the end. → Read More
Hate to spoil it for the battered fans of Lost, but those cool GPS satellite phones that the whoevers from the whatever on the good ship Howsyerfather are using to track each other on the island are not real. “No satellite phone handset that I am aware of has any form of touch screen available to the user,” said a spokesman for Globalstar Inc., a satellite phone network. Does any of… → Read More
[photopress:th_fcdEvangiline_Lilly.AA172.PLT.jpg,full,right]If you watched LOST for the first time last night and were totally, well, lost as to what’s going on, you’re so not alone. It’s a complex show that’s almost impossible to explain to anyone, I know because I’ve tried. You need to watch all the episodes to get caught up. All of them. My friend Viva (yes… → Read More
As geeks (yes, you’re geeks), you’re likely eagerly waiting for the next season of ABC’s LOST to surface. We’re with you on that one. But did you know that LOST has a lot more in common with Gilligan’s Island than the word “castaways”? In fact, the first incarnation of Gilligan’s Island was as a dark, mysterious drama, just like LOST? It’s… → Read More
Two weeks ago we posted about games we’d like to see based on properties from the BBC, notably Doctor Who. But then we spent some time to think about it, and most games based on TV shows are actually less enjoyable than being stuck with basic cable during a long rainy weekend. TV is in a new golden age with some great shows on premium cable channels including HBO and Showtime, as well as basic… → Read More
What do you do when you have a failing TV show with a terrible plot line and you’re losing money on it? Create a mobile game! Duh! “Lost” is now available as a downloadable iPod game on the iTunes Music Store. For $5 you too can “Help Jack search for dynamite, tend to the wounded, and avoid the black smoke.” Sounds extremely exciting. Other activities include helping… → Read More
As a general rule, journalists (particularly us of the tech stripe) go gonzo when trying to proclaim something a new “trend.” We take one example of a hit YouTube video and proclaim it to be the death of TV. The stories are usually the same: Lead with an example of a internet video that became part of the geek cultural canon (take the anti-Hillary Clinton/Apple “1984” mash-up video, or… → Read More
Actually no, you’re just blind. Quite a few blogs have been reporting that the iPhone was shown on the failing TV series “Lost”. Look at that screenshot above. Do the icons look similar to the iPhone’s? Sure. But what about the length of that device and the fact that it has a map on the screen? Hmmm, doesn’t look like much of an iPhone anymore. Perhaps if everyone had… → Read More
