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

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?

      Exactly. They won't go 100 because current gen consoles are simply too old for any groundbreaking graphics or gaming experience otherwise. They will go with standard (console) price 70 or go with 80 if they really want to go premium. Of course they will have more expensive options too with some useless cosmetics as always.

      Doesn’t surprise me at all. God is light & He gave us life so it sounds almost logical that we would therefore emit a certain amount of light.

      By Copernic · Posted

      Motrix Next 3.9.6 by Razvan Serea Motrix Next is a modern, open-source cross-platform download manager built as the official next-generation successor to the original Motrix project. It has been completely rewritten using Tauri 2, Vue 3, TypeScript, and Rust, while still relying on the powerful Aria2 download engine for high-speed multi-protocol transfers. The app supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, BitTorrent, ED2K and magnet links, offering advanced features like multi-connection acceleration, task scheduling, bandwidth control, and batch download management. With a significantly reduced install size (around 20MB), it focuses on being lightweight, fast, and resource-efficient compared to traditional Electron-based download tools. Designed for Windows, macOS, and Linux, Motrix Next delivers a clean, modern UI inspired by Material Design 3 principles, with smooth animations and a minimal workflow. It improves usability through better download organization, system tray integration, and enhanced torrent handling including selective file downloads and tracker management. Motrix Next features: Multi-protocol downloads — HTTP, FTP, BitTorrent, Magnet, .torrent, ED2K, and Metalink tasks BitTorrent — Selective file download, DHT, peer exchange, encryption controls, metadata caching, GeoIP peer flags, and tracker probing Browser extension integration — Embedded Extension API with independent authentication, download confirmation, smart auto-submit, filename hints, referer/cookie forwarding, and real-time controls (Chrome Web Store · Edge Add-ons) Safe filename handling — Content-Disposition, RFC 2047, non-UTF-8, percent-encoded, and extensionless URL resolution with path traversal sanitization Download organization — Favorite and recent folders, optional file-type categorization, stale-record cleanup, and completed history backed by SQLite Concurrent downloads — Independent controls for active tasks, HTTP connections per server, segments per file, and BT peer limits Speed control — Global and per-task upload/download limits with day-of-week and time-of-day scheduling System integration — Tray operation, optional tray speed display, macOS Dock badge/progress, protocol handlers for magnet://, thunder://, and motrixnext:// Lightweight mode — Destroys the WebView on minimize-to-tray while Rust keeps the engine, task monitor, notifications, history, and extension routing alive Notifications and power options — Native task start/complete/failure notifications, keep-awake during downloads, and optional shutdown after completion Network controls — Scoped proxy support for downloads, app updates, and tracker updates, plus system proxy detection Auto-update channels — Stable, Beta, and Latest Across Channels policies with separate download and install phases Diagnostics — Structured logs, exportable diagnostic ZIPs, database integrity checks, automatic DB rebuild, and Linux GPU rendering fallback Personalization — Light/dark/system theme, 10 color schemes, 26 languages, and first-launch system language detection Motrix Next 3.9.6 changelog: New Features Clipboard management — App-owned copy actions no longer trigger the Add Task auto-detect popup. aria2 input compatibility — Multi-line aria2-style task input is supported for URLs with per-task options such as out=. BitTorrent IPv6 DHT — Added IPv6 DHT support and related configuration. File category URL patterns — File category rules can match URL patterns with validation and localized hints. Task status tags — Added clearer waiting and sharing states for task cards. Download event bridge — Added an aria2 WebSocket event bridge for faster download notifications. Improvements Improved task list transitions and preserved task state during tab switches. Kept RPC origin access enabled for local integrations. Restored AppImage stripping in release builds after beta validation. Added localized preference guidance across supported languages.
