Re: Lost Returns......

Are the episodes on all this week the ones before we had the enforced break? So, five episodes of series 3 then starting the new ones again on Sunday?

Re: Lost Returns......

Yep SKY1 are repeating the first 6 episodes before the 7th premieres next sunday night.

I downloaded the first 6 in SD then watched then in HD on SKY1 and will watch the rest in HD on SKY1, no problem waiting a few days since I can then still keep up with the mainly US based forums/groups I use

Re: Lost Returns......

I'll watch it on Sky One now, I can wait a few days, I'll record it though and watch it later so I can fast forward all the bloody adverts!

Re: Lost Returns......

I've watched this series on SkyOne. I downloaded a lot of series 2 before it came out over here, but much prefer watching in HD this time round.

Re: Lost Returns......

I will wait for Sky One, after downloading the 1st part of Series 3.

But I really hope the series starts to get interesting cos I find it just a little slow at present and I might give up on Series 4 if things don't improve.

I was reading that the show might not run for 7 or 8 series as planned as US ratings are falling badly. Perhaps others are getting fed up with the slow pace!!

Re: Lost Returns......

I downloaded the first two seasons and the first part fo season 3.

I'm more than happy now to wait to watch it on Sky HD. Other studios and broadcasters, please take note. If you want to cut down on downloads, show stuff in a timely manner and don't keep us waiting. Channel4/More 4/E4 are you listening?

As for how many series it goes on for, I'm not that bothered, as long as they managed to tie it all together in a reasonable manner.

The first 6 eps of season3 averaged over 17million, shocking performance

That said it's not going to increase it's audience so wrapping up at around 100 (for syndication) makes a lot of sense especially after 5 years salaries increase greatly.

Re: Lost Returns......

Apparently there will be series 4 which is going to be aired in 2 parts like this one and then a mini series 5 to wrap things up, cant remember where i read it but it was pretty recently.

Re: Lost Returns......

i'll carry on watching the U.S version. I only get SD skyone, so its a plus for me that U.S ones are sourced from HD (and look excellent on my 32" CRT), plus the logo is less obtrusive, and the adverts are pre-removed.

I'm with you, may as well wait a few days for a proper broadcast than download it.

Re: Lost Returns......

I'm just going to wait. Sick of downloading shows now. Might aswell wait and watch in all it's glory on the 42 plasma I paid good money for.

I just watched the Teasers for the upcoming episode "Not in Portland" and I must say it does look good, as do the clips for the rest of this season.

Well as I don't have HD, I'll be following Mr Pineapples lead.
