seems like the writers strike will have a major effect on LOST this season...originally the plan was to show 16 straight episodes but due to the strike only 8 episodes have been completed...ABC has decided (against the wishes of the show's writers/producers) to air these 8 episodes starting January 31st (LOST will air on Thursday's at 9:00 P.M)...these 8 episodes are not the full season and is sort of like reading half a book

hopefully the writers strike will be settled soon so we can see the entire 16 episode season the way it was meant to be seen

here is the official LOST season 4 preview trailer

James Hibberd - ABC’s New ‘Lost’ Trailer - TVWeek - Blogs

and another shorter preview (scroll to bottom of page)

James Hibberd - Where 'Lost' Is Found: Thursdays - TVWeek - Blogs

and finally Oceanic Airlines has launched a new web site

Fly Oceanic Air

did you watch the LOST Season 4 preview carefully?...I mean very carefully...unless you slowed the video down and watched it frame by frame you are bound to have missed a lot of key clues to the upcoming season...

luckily there is a site that breaks down the trailer frame by frame...

Lost Season 4 Trailer - Screen Caps

some ideas/theories...

anyone been watching LOST: Missing Pieces?

Lost: Missing Pieces is a series of 13 mobisodes/webisodes, available for viewing first on Verizon mobile phones, and six days later on ABC.com. Featuring new content that is incorporated into the existing storyline of Lost, the mobisodes are considered an extension of the series. Each mobisode fills in a narrative gap somewhere in the timeline from the first three seasons. The mobisodes are released weekly, leading up to the Season 4 premiere, and are between 1:22–3:27 minutes in length

the entire LOST: Missing Pieces series is pretty interesting

check out all 11 mini-episodes so far...

special "enhanced" LOST episode

On Wednesday January 30th at 9 pm/ET, 24 hours before LOST (at long last) launches its Season 4, ABC will present an enhanced rebroadcast of the Season 3 finale

This special presentation of the "Through the Looking Glass" episode will feature text on the "lower third" of the screen, offering up backstory, clues and other assorted on-screen facts

they left out a lot of stuff but with a show like LOST which is so deep in mythology and backstory it would be hard to explain everything in 8 minutes and 15 seconds

Tonight's the night...LOST is back...for at least 8 new episodes and hopefully more if the writers strike gets settled soon...tonight they are showing a LOST special at 8:00 PM followed by the season 4 premiere at 9:00 PM

this season will be the best season ever...no doubt

here is an early review of tonight's episode

ISLAND FEVER

anyone catch last night's re-airing of the Season 3 finale with the 'enhanced' pop up bar at the bottom of the screen that gave away story clues, hints, Easter Eggs etc?
