Is "Lost" really Over?

Well, I hope the show doesn't go on for to much longer because they are really dragging things out. I love and will miss the show like crazy, but I'd rather it end well then continue and end poorly. What will I miss the most??? Sawyer and Kate. lol I will also miss the mystery that the first season was made of....I already miss that now.

No longer compete? As far as I know, it is one of the most popular shows on TV right now. It's on a long hiatus right now and returns in February. I do not think its going to end anytime soon since I can't see how they could possibly wrap it up very quickly. There are I think 16 new episodes coming out.

At one time I would have missed LOST when they were to end it. That was before they started showing repeats mid season and then did this season where they had a big hole in the scheduling. It is hard to follow a story when you have to wait and wait and wait to find out what happens next. LOST was a great story that bad scheduling killed.

From what I've read (including the article you mention) they are NOT talking about ending the show because of competition. They are doing it because the show has many complicated plot twists that need to be tied up , and the creators want to know far in advance how much time they'll have to bring the story to a conclusion that makes sense and that viewers will be satisfied with. Some fans have complained that the show has introduced a lot of twists and turns and hasn't shown where they are leading, so I think the creators want to know how much longer they have--2 seasons, 3, etc.

i do not watch Lost, but I really do not think they are going to cancel the show, it is one of the top shows on cable tv right now.

They say it takes a couple of weeks to put one episode together, which is why they have the breaks mid-season. That and, I think they are trying to dodge the reality shows that are filling up the schedules. Look at what just started this month - The Apprentice, American Idol, Beauty and the Geek, and the constant presence of Deal or No Deal. I loved Lost but am pretty fed up with the neverending puzzles with no answers. It is getting frustrating. If and when it ends I will miss Jack and Hurley. Hurley is hilarious! He gets some great lines, Dude.

I think that lost are unfortunately going to end soon! I will miss it but i think it is better for lost serie to end it now.

I m really anxious to know what is going on? who r the others? where the island is? will they get resuced or they'll die or get away? OR is it all an experiment? or worse Someone's dream..i will miss the show but also be glad that i got all the ans

I think that they have killed the show and their followers with their continued breaks and reruns. It is very frustrating and from what I undstand they are planning the season finale so they can start wrapping up the show, most likely it will not be ending this year.

i read that too

Thats what I heard too. But no time soon though, right? In a way it is good so we can finally find out whats going on in that island. I love the show but all good things must come to an end.

It is supposed to last seven seasons, but one never knows. ABC is not that good at science fiction. Look I expected the Others to be some super humans with psychic powers or aliens but look what they gave us, scientists working for an organization called Dharma who is conducted various experiments.

So, is season 3 the last one? I'd surely miss it, but I think it's better if they put an ending to it than making it very lenghty that it might become boring for the viewers.

The writers need to come up with stories that will pull back the fans. Although I am not one of those fans that want more, more, more, at least give some answers to questions that people have been trying to guess at. With any series it is a guessing game as to how long a show will survive. Keeping the fans interested is tough. I for one would not like for the show to come to an end. But, it is inevitable that it will end. There will be another to replace it. But, if it were to end, my Wednesdays will never be the same.

Oh no I love that show. Ive been looking forward to it coming back on in February. I guess I will miss it but as long as they end it the right way I guess I can deal with it

It's not going to end soon. They're going to make it last 100 episodes, 5 seasons. It's only season three now, so we've still got halfway to go. I think that all the questions will eventually be answered. The creator, JJ Abrams, has said that he doesn't want this to turn into another X-Files, with so many twists and turns that by the end even the show's creator can't make any sense of it.

I really dont watch the tv series and it ll b dragged and i ll have to watch it continously to understand so i ll not watch that at all.

Wow, I haven't heard this before. I think they made a big mistake this season with the huge gap between the shows. There is so much stuff going on that it's really hard to remember it all when the show has been off for 3 months. I think they'll lose a lot of viewers who may have found new shows to watch in that time. As for what I'd miss, it would have to be having an inteligent show on TV.

I hope not. This is my favorite TV show. The one thing that bothers me is the long brakes the show takes. It's hard to keep up when your missing it for 13 weeks. Jack, Sawyer, Kate, John and Hurley, are the best TV characters to come along in the history of TV. If they are planning the last eposide, they better clear up all the mysteries.
