Update
Lost Makes Good on Missing Episodes
ABC / Mario Perez
Time may move wonky for those on the Island, but for those simply watching it, it'll march on as expected. And as contractually obligated.
ABC has confirmed that, before Lost moves on to that big hatch in the sky in 2010, the network will make good on the three episodes missed due to the writers' strike.
Prior to the start of this season, producers and the network hammered out an endgame, agreeing that Lost would continue for 48 episodes, or three seasons of 16 episodes each.
Even with the recently added second hour to this year's May 29 season finale, however, producers were still two eps shy. Not anymore.
"[Coproducer] Carlton [Cuse] and I did an interview yesterday, and they asked what about the two episodes that didn't get done this year, and we reiterated as we have in many interviews we will probably do 17 next year and 17 the following year," show overlord Damon Lindelof tells E! Online's Watch With Kristin TV blog.
"Poststrike we always said we would make up the ones that got dropped," Cuse added.
That settles that. If only those other numbers were as easy to decipher.
