Within the past few months there has been a great deal of speculation and discussion in the media concerning when, exactly, Lost will end. Based on the nature of the show, the producers stated some time ago that they were in discussions with ABC, attempting to set a definitive end date for our favorite castaways time on the island. ABC Entertainment president Stephen McPherson said, "Due to the unique nature of 'Lost,' we knew it would require an end date to keep the integrity and strength of the show consistent throughout and to give the audience the payoff they deserve.
Although none of us want to see Lost come to an end, this is really great news. This will allow us, as fans, to know that the writers are building this overall story to a specific point in time, which we will be given the answers we've so patiently waited for. In addition, this gives the writers and creators of the show the ability to totally map out the remainder of the series. Carlton Cuse had this to say, "What we didn't know was how long we had to play the story out. By defining the endpoint we can now really map out the rest of the series in confidence."
So what are the juicy details? Three more seasons of Lost! This means that lost will end at the completion of season 6. Each of the next 3 seasons will be 16 episodes long, and run from January to May with no repeats. This means that we will get 48 more episodes of Lost after season 3, bringing the total number of episodes to 120 for the entire series. Also as a part of this deal Damon Lindelhof and Carlton Cuse have agreed to stay on with the show until the end.
I say this is great news for the Lost fan community! But what do you think??
