Lost S.P.

[Yasvanth]

HI

Does anybody know when they will ever get off that bloody island?

Do you guys think that the " Others" are really scientists in disguise?

Also does anybody know how many more series they are going to produce?

Thanks

Yas

Hmmm... dunno. I'm still waiting for season 3 to come out on video, so I can catch up.

[aud19]

Yas, you not watch the end of last season yet? I don't want to spoil anything for those who haven't watched yet so I won't say much... but I think a lot of your questions will be answered there

I remember there being an announcement of exactly how many seasons where left. There is a definite planned ending, I just can't remember how many more it was. A quick google search ought to fix that though

Lost : What A Fantastic Series!

Thanks Jason,

I used to be a big fan of The X- Files, but now I think it was rubbish compared to the high standard of acting, excellent scripts that continue to keep the viewer rivetted to his seat, and constantly asking questions. I think it's brill. I just hope the guys who actually produce this fantastic series don't run out of ideas and when the series does finally end, wont end abruptly.

Guess what I still haven't seen or purchased the 3rd Series yet, but I hope to soon!

Yas :T

Well from what I recall they have a planned story arc that has an appropriate, non-abrupt ending apparently. Which is the reason for the planned and definite promise of a specific number of seasons. (I think we only have a few more for a total of 6 or 7 if memory serves me.)

Otherwise I agree, the show is brilliant :T Makes a lot of other previously well thought of shows look quaint in comparison IMO.

X-files was definitely not rubbish! I got the whole DVD collection and ship it in now and then. X-files back then was the same as Lost these days... just too advance to comprehend... whatever..

and like I said on your other post: unless they get really LOST, there will be another 3 seasons, since some of the major characters (ie Michael's father, yeap you heard right, he'll be back) signed for another 3 years (signed this summer)

Hi all Lost fans,

Does anybody know what the 'Smoke Monster' is all about?

Also can somebody explain, why there was a Polar Bear running loose on a Tropical Island?

Even though I have just finished watching the 3rd Series, there is still a lot questions to be answered.

The plane crash was done on purpose. To bring the survivours to the Island, but for what reason?

What sort of experiments are they doing?

Why do the Others do not want the Survivours to leave the Island?

I hope one of you Lost fans can answer some of these questions, as it's doing my head in.

Thanks

Yas

you're indeed LOST :rofl:

Just finished season 3 on DVD. Can't wait for season 4 (I'll be able to watch it in hi-def, though I have to say the SD DVDs of Lost are among the most impressive I've seen--they give HD cable, at least, a run for its money).

[aud19]

So who watched it!!? :P

Can't wait to see who "the six" are and what happens to the rest exactly. Obviously they come back together at some point as Hurley left with Lock but ends up back home with Jack, Kate and....?

[Ovation]

Just watched it on my PVR (in hi-def). Got used to watching it on DVD sets. It sucks that I have to wait a whole week for the next episode. Other than that, no complaints. It's "must-see TV" (I know, I know, another network and another era).

[Hdale85]

Yeah that first episode basically left me going "Huh" lots of new questions :B Can't wait for the next ep.

[Ovation]

The only downside is that we won't be getting the full 16 episode run as originally scheduled--the season will "end" like Heroes did.

[Hdale85]

Why's that? They had the full series already written before they even started filming season 1.

[Ovation]

Why's that? They had the full series already written before they even started filming season 1.

That is a common misconception. Abrams and Co. have said several times that while they have a general idea of the overall arc, not all the episodes have been written (and, indeed, they have, at times, made several significant adjustments owing to cast changes and other issues). They only had eight episodes of the sixteen slated for this year completed before the strike. That's why we're getting only half a season.

[Hdale85]

Hmm... well the studios need to pull their heads out their butts and give them what they want. The terms aren't even that horrible.

[Ovation]

I agree.

[Hdale85]

One of the biggest issues I know they want is they want payment for online streamed content which they get no royalties at all right now. I think thats very reasonable demand. Too many shows are suffering from this and some of the new ones that only had one season this strike could completely kill them.

[Ovation]

Journeyman may not have survived beyond a year, but it would have had a full season, IMO (and it was starting to get really interesting when the episodes ran out). Life is one my wife and I enjoyed quite a bit and we really hope it does not get canceled (though its last broadcast episode at least resolved a major plot point so as to give a semblance of closure).

[Hdale85]

I'm hoping Californication survives.

[Ovation]

I hope Pushing Daisies (HD is a must to appreciate the visuals on this series) survives as well.

[Hdale85]

Was just watching the news and they said the Writers Guild and studio's have reached an agreement and a new contract could be signed by the end of the week.

[Ovation]

Excellent news. Maybe there'll be time to get Lost (and some others) back into production.

[Hdale85]

Yes lets hope so. Half a season is kind of crappy.

[aud19]

Excellent news. Maybe there'll be time to get Lost (and some others) back into production.

At the very least hopefully we'll get the second half of the seasons in the fall when the seasons normally begin anyways. Will work out well for Lost as their next season could start in spring like it did this year anyway.

[Alloroc]

Saw it in HD over thw weekend. We're a couple of days behind you guys but that's livible. Anyhow, Good start. Am instantly hooked again.

[Hdale85]

.... No more new episodes until April 24th.

[aud19]

But at least there ARE more new episodes! :yesnod:

[Hdale85]

Yeah was just hoping they'd have the next one done in time to keep it going. The 24th of april seems like a long ways away.

[aud19]

Only a few weeks really, I'm just glad it's on at all!!
