With Lost it's pretty much impossible to tell viewing figures, especially in any dcountry outside of the US. I don't know a single Lost fan over here who watches Lost on TV. Bit torrent really has taken over.
Really? I don't get that. I'm not saying you're wrong, i just don't understand why people would rather go thru the trouble of downloading something, then watch it on their tiny computer monitor. I've only experimented w/ bit torrent a few times, and failed miserably. When i tried to download stuff, it would tell me it would take days to finish. But that's not the point. Even i you could just watch it at abc.com, I'd still rather tivo it, start watching it 20-30 minutes in to get behind enough to skip thru the ads, and watch it on my giant tv screen (It's really just a 32 inch non flat, non HD screen, but compared to my pc monitor it's a giant. Maybe I'm just getting old and don't understadn the kids these days
then i guess abc doesn't see it as hurting their ratings too much since they choose to keep all 4 seasons in regular and HD streams w/ no charge. they still make money from it off the advertisements online.

sometimes i hook my laptop up to my tv and watch it that way, but if the cable gets loose it can look like shite...normally i just watch it on my computer in fullscreen
but i know lots of ppl that hook their computers up to their tvs to watch things and if you have a HD tv abc has HD streams of all their shows for free, too.
i watch the office online, too, for free, not sure if nbc has HD streams or not since i don't have a HDTV

that's why there was a writer's strike. They weren't getting those profits. Hopefully there won't be an actor's strike.

doh, i forgot about that! yeah, that was over internet residuals as well as dvd and other things i think maybe health care, too? but my initial reply was more towards it hurting their ratings and the studio/network not sharing profits doesn't really have much to do w/ ratings and me or anyone else watching online have nothing to do w/ them not sharing the profits. i did support the strike, however, i think the artist(s) should get more of the money than any studio be it tv, motion picture, music....when radiohead released their new album online even tho a small % paid for it they still made more money from it then if they went through a record company

I was reading an article that said originally Michael was only supposed to kill Ana Lucia, but the producers felt like the audience wouldn't really sympathise with her, so they add Libby to the mix (which maybe the reason her back story was never told)
I remember the scene with Libby giving the boat to Desmond to go sailing. The race was sponsered by Widmore. And I thought that she said it was her dad. Is Libby Penny's sister? and did she send Desmond on purpose for her father to get her out of Penny's life?
Glad Penny found Desmond.
Also, as someone else posted, I don't think Jin is dead either.
"I knew all the rules, but the rules did not know me. Guaranteed."
i wondered, too, if jack is the other one sun blames. he was the one that yelled at her that jin was gone and they couldn't go back. not that that killed him but she might have some resentment.
Kate was going to go and find Jin for Sun before the chopper took off. Jack would never have let them leave without Kate, but he stopped Kate from going to find Jin, and made no effort to find Jin himself. I can see why Sun would blame him.

Jin is not dead, remember, Faraday was on the raft on his way to the freighter when it blew up. My guess, Jin jumps off and is underwater in a nick of time before the explosion, and we'll see Faraday save him. I think it is very safe to assume that Sun blames Jack, Jack himself said so. The only other possibility is Ben. Perhaps as Locke was making his rounds to see everyone, he informed Sun of the events that took place to make the ship blow up any way.

It's mainly because Lost is shown on Sky One, which is only available through satellite (subscription service). Not many people these days bother with satellite, the difference between the freeview service and satellite is miniscule, so can't watch Lost. Plenty of people watched Lost on TV for the first series because it was on channel 4 (a free channel). No one's going to pay £20-30 a month just to watch Lost.

Lost actor Harold Perrineau has criticised the show's bosses over the short-lived return of his character Michael Dawson. "I'm disappointed, mostly because I wanted Michael and [his son] Walt to have a happy ending," he told TV Guide, speaking about the explosive demise of Michael in the fourth season finale. "If I were writing it, I would write it differently." "I thought it was disappointing and a waste to come back, only to get beat up a few times (more)

I agree... that was beautifully done and had me in tears once again Desmond (who I'm not normally a huge fan of) and Penny provide one of the best lost scenes EVER... it was soooooooooooooo romantic!

Anyone else have a strange feeling Jin and Michael survived?.. We all know the island wouldn't let Michael die.. and their supposed deaths were watched from quite a distance away. Jin could have jumped or been thrown off the ship.. and it's clear Sun will be doing what she can to find the island again, even dealing with Charles Whitmore now..
I think sun may have become bad since coming off the island... I reckon she's willing to give up the location of all of them... in return for Jin if he's alive... unless Locke told her he's alive. I presume he hasn't been threading water for 3 years if he is.

By the way, wouldn't Harold get in trouble for confirming something on the show that was not made clear? Takes a bit of the drama out of it. I would imagine all the players on the show have to sign some kind of gag order.

he was standing right next to a huge amount of explosives that went off.... i thought it was pretty clear.

Ha, now that you put it so bluntly.....lol.
I just thought there has been some speculation about whether he was dead or not - since the island would not let him die in his previous suicide attempts.
I know Jack's father told him it was time to go, but with the whole time travel thing I guess you never know what could happen.

Mostly he wanted to keep getting the Lost paycheck. The writers have to write what they think will be the best story, not to make actors happy.
Actually, he is already in a new pilot for ABC, so Harold isn't going to go hungry.
Anyone else have trouble seeing Lost actors/actresses in another role? We saw Vantage Point when it was in theaters....and everytime Matthew Fox popped up, I was like "oh, there's Jack" to myself.

Is Jack's Dad still alive?.. Jack found his coffin, but nobody was inside.
And they are going to have bring Locke's corpse back in season 5..
Did the island bring them back to life?
