not in the arrow station its where they sit sawyer and co thats the doors down...all thats left is the shell...thats how im reading into it...thing is arrow isnt one of the 6 so its gotta be pre-dharma station planning :wacko:

hell that would make perfect sense considering the chance that station had the "incident", then it was closed down and they started over and succeeded(i guess)and made the 6 stations we know now.

this is becoming a joke now. they can't just show 1 episode and then a break and then another episode and then another break. they're trying to make the series last longer but this has got to be turning people off of the show - not me, but less patient people. i'm glad we don't have this many (if any) crazy breaks here.

I know, it's especially frustrating for my wife and I, since we watched one episode to begin with, got hooked, then borrowed the season one box set and downloaded the season two episodes up until we were caught up with the current episode. Watched 30 or so episodes in the matter of a week-and-a-halfs time. Now that we're caught up...seems like there is a new episode every few weeks at best.

I've read that the writers intended to have this story end; it would have a finite run and end after 3-4 years. After the success of 'Lost' so far, CBS stated they want the story open-ended, so it could continue indefinately. That absolutely sucks for a story intended to have an end, especially one packed with as many details as 'Lost'. I have a feeling we'll be seeing more fluff stories and episodes spread out like this.

Sorry, but CBS has absolutely no control over ABC's shows. :)

Even if Lost stays on the air for longer than the intended 4-5 seasons, when the final season arrives the writes should give us a finite ending. Don't worry...

Surface fans, now... they have something to worry about. :-/

Most shows do this. It isn't just Lost, the only reason we're paying more attention to it with Lost is because Lost is more popular, so the breaks get more attention.

Every episode of Lost is edited in that 'to be continued...' style, rather than a stand-alone episode. So you really notice the gaps between new episodes because you want to know what happens next and aren't satisfied with the episode alone.

However, Lost does seem to take more breaks than the average TV show. The show uses a lot of special effects (not all of them are obivous) that need to be applied in HDTV quality, which takes a bit of post-production time.

Yeah that does make sense, its because its not like Family guy for example where there is 1 episode and thats it but Lost is continuous

4-5 seasons???????

I want this to end this season.... Surely even tv exec's must know to go out on a high...

Lost doesnt have a strong enough storyline to last 4-5 seasons in my opinion, 2 is plenty....

maybe there are plenty of surprises

you don't know the storyline or whats to come

do you know Prison Break? well writers have that planned for 3-4 seasons..if they can do that why can't Lost which has a broader set of directions and content?

      But we are talking about Elon Musk, no AT&T... I know big companies are evil, but Elon and his companies are in another level which is much more dangerous.
    • New PowerToys update fixes memory leaks and other issues

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      New PowerToys update fixes memory leaks and other issues by Taras Buria Another bug-fixing update is available for PowerToys version 0.100. After releasing version 0.100.1 with a bunch of bug fixes and patches, Microsoft pushed version 0.100.2 to address two important issues with one of Command Palette Dock's features. With PowerToys 0.100.2, Microsoft fixed the performance meter displaying incorrect values and memory leaks, which are particularly unwanted things in the current situation with overpriced PC hardware. Here is the changelog: Reverted a Performance Monitor dock refresh change that forced item refreshes on every metric update Fixed a memory leak in the Performance Monitor dock extension by reusing stable network upload/download band items instead of creating new list items on each refresh For those unfamiliar, Command Palette Dock is a relatively new addition to PowerToys. It is a taskbar-like tool that you can keep on top of the screen to pin various useful widgets, commands, and more. It can display time, weather, your PC's performance metrics, and more. Microsoft introduced the Command Palette Dock in March 2026 in PowerToys 0.98. Microsoft has dedicated documentation for Command Palette Dock, and you can check it out on the official Microsoft Learn website. You can update PowerToys to the latest version by going to Settings > General and clicking "Check for updates." Alternatively, you can download the installer from GitHub using this link. In other news, Microsoft is working on a new window-management utility for PowerToys. Called Alt Window Cycle, it will let you use the Alt + ` shortcut to switch between different windows in a single app. You can learn more about the tool here.

      You did take leaf out of Trumps book already and had brexit - only to harm yourself. The same goes with this AI nonsense. The obvious solution for these companies is to move their head office to Brussels. I can see quite much irony there... 🙂

      Wonder if they are trying to slow down Linux traction (not saying this is the only factor) in the consumer space. With the most pressure probably being steam deck/box, etc.
