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

While I stopped watching the show about two years ago, I fully recognize that my fellow Americans absolutely love the show. In fact, they love the show so much that they’ve been tweeting about it non-stop. Come, let’s explore how the Twitterverse responded to this great TV moment! Here we go! → 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 actually a terrible TV show and not deserving of all the attention it got over the last six seasons. Here’s the obligatory *Spoiler Warning* tag although there is no way you’ll be able to avoid Lost news next week so you might as well get over it now. → Read More

Okay, so this video can basically bring anyone up to speed on Lost and so it probably deserves a *Spoiler Alert* tag, but there’s going to be no avoiding Lost news after the finale on Sunday so you might as well get used to it. Your screwed if you’re just now getting into the show. The Internet isn’t going to stop just because you’re only on Season 3. Sorry. → 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.

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. Click through to supersize. → 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 are the Losties applicants for? It doesn’t make sense that it’s Jacob’s role because then Jacob would have had to know he was going to die in order to qualify and observe certain people their entire life. So what’s going on here?
We have so many other questions like who that boy with the stick was and how/why the island had the big gear underground, but it’s those two that are bothering us the most. Help? → 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 different plans. Oh, and there is a NSFW word spoken at the end of the video. → Read More
Heads up, fans of the hit TV series Lost. Amazon has a little sale going on through July 16 that may interest you. 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 present in the original broadcast are removed from the cap.) You’re not going to notice the dropped frames when watching the show on TV (due to the nature of broadcast television), but it makes capping the show a pain in the neck. The resulting cap, less the dupe frames, plays back like garbage. → 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 it to her. If you’d like to try to force someone to hop on the Lost bandwagon or if you, yourself, would like to churn through the first three seasons in rapid succession, Amazon has Seasons 1, 2, and 3 for $58.99, which is less than half what they normally cost. That deal’s good today only, though, so hop to it if you’re interested. Lost – The Complete Seasons 1-3 [Amazon] → 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. I’ve run into Kate and she’s sort of uncooperative thus far and doesn’t seem too keen on answering any questions or helping. There’s also some woman that randomly appears but as I get closer she disappears. It’s creepy and scary. It appears that when you encounter other characters you go through a Q&A phase. When you think you know them you revert to a flashback of the plane where you snap a photo for future reference. It’s kind of weird, but makes sense. I’ll be sure to finish this game when I get back from CTIA. Has anyone else played this? Product Page Xbox Page → 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 fine. “The water, in general, doesn’t hurt them at all,” Cash says. “It’s the air that hurts them once they’ve been wet. It starts the corrosion and rust process.” Once the black box is found at a wreckage site, it’s transferred to the lab in a water-filled cooler so the data can be retrieved and copied right away. Blah blah mystery blah smoke monster blah with Sawyer in the blah blah up inside Jack. Blah blah I’ll bet anyone 50 bucks this show ends up like Twin Peaks and angers us all to no end. Blah.
