Exclamation Lost Finale - USA & UK To Air Finale At Same Time!

Hi,

For those of you into the whole finale of "LOST", you'll be glad to hear of the following news.

Sky 1 and ABC are going to air the whole 2.5 hour finale of LOST at the same time, to avoid people pirating and uploading the show onto the Net.

In the USA, ABC will air the episodes on Monday 24th May at 8pm. If you have Sky 1, then you can also see the episodes at the EXACT SAME TIME, but at the ungodly hour of Monday 24th May at 5:00-7:30am (due to the US-UK time-difference)!!!!!

That's right: Sky 1 will be airing the episode, straight, direct, uncensored and uninterrupted from the USA, taking their TV feed straight from ABC in the USA!

Those of you who need English Subtitles, can still see the whole finale on Friday night at 8pm onwards, on Sky 1 as per usual!

Tomorrow *a certain website* will spoil the LOST finale, forcing many LOST sites to shut down their comments section on the day the show ends. This is quite frustrating and unfair, but not surprising.

If you don't want to be spoiled perhaps this is a bad idea?

I see you are airing the lost finale at 5am on monday the 24th, and was wondering, since this will be past the watershed will it be censored heavily, or will it air in it's full form, but just pin protected?

A shame but not surprising, I'll have to turn the volume up a lot more then, my neightbours are gonna be banging on the walls tomorrow morning


Also is this simulcast costing Sky a bit extra money or something otherwise why don't they show all the top shows the evening after the US broadcast to counter the downloaders (yeah you).

Probably useful at this point to say the forum has spoiler tags to hide spoilers and members are expected to use them out of courtesy

[spoiler*] insert text [/spoiler] -> *Remove the asterisk for tag to take effect

Lost what now?
