Rumor has it that with the cancellation of Daybreak, ABC Execs have gone to the Producers of LOST and asked how much it would cost, and what it would take to get LOST back on the air earlier than expected on Feb 7.
This is only an inquiry by the execs, no response back from the Producers is known, so this doesn't mean anything will come of it, but, keep your eyes peeled, just in case it does come about.

I doubt they could do it.... might be wrong though. Don't you think they could whip up a stupid games show for less?

Well, we know that they are afraid of American Idol.
This doesn't seem to be mentioned in this thread yet, but the last word I heard was that LOST, when it comes back (for us USies), will come back at 10PM.
Frankly, that poops all over my LOST/South Park night.

On a Wednesday? I doubt it...they are afraid of the CBS Criminal Minds show becoming a dominant force...I think.

AI is definitely a consideration, before AI comes on, ratings are much better. After AI season begins, ratings drop, becuase people watch AI results, and Criminal Minds is also a threat. Moving to 10PM, gives both the AI folks and the Criminal minds folks a chance to watch LOST without missing the other two shows.

I've never watched it but I am always tempted to pop Cowel in the mouth every time I see a commercial with him. (I thought the Taylor dude was a girl, for god sakes!)

I just can't stand the utter lack of differences between the competitors. My spouse watches that, and save for the dude who won last year... they all sing in the R&B meets Mariah Carey cum X-Tina style. ALL OF THEM.
Yeah...they throw in the obligatory countrified girly and the rocker dude....but for the most part the style of the competitors is homogenous, and frankly dull.

I think the loyal Losties will stick with the show. I don't think anyone with half a brain watches those idiotic "reality" shows, least of all dumb-arse stuff like Idol.

You and me both!! I just wish our stupid TV station would at least re-run Season 2 in the meantime, just to refresh our memories!! Hell, they reran series 1...

Oh, and those are pretty minor spoilers, but, be weery between now and Feb 7. There is apparently a DVD screener of Ep 7 that has been released, so, popular belief is that Bit Torrent will be getting it in the next few days, so, tehre may be some BIG spoilers for the first ep floating around within a week.

YAY!!! It starts for us next Thursday!!! We got a "special" on this week, then series 3 starts on the 15th...I just wish they'd repeated series 2 (not series 1!!) during the Xmas holidays!!

We in the US start tomorrow Feb 7, and from what's been released this is gonna be a very good episode, followed up in the remaining 15 episodes by quite a roller coaster. Those who were unhappy about the format of the first 6 episodes, will be happy to see things return to focusing on the large group.

Cool! Hopefully it'll be on the net in a couple of days time.
