Live Blogging the Season Premiere of LOST
Come one, come all, and join us as we live blog the television event that forced President Obama to opine on the State of the Union a week early: the premiere of the sixth—and final—season of LOST.
Although the big event doesn't start until 9:00 PM ET on ABC, the network is currently airing a one-hour recap special called LOST: Final Chapter. The promotional description for the special says that it will "review questions that have been answered and explore those that haven't." Hard to believe it can all fit in an hour!
Now, it's time for a confession: I'm behind on the action. Like, embarrassingly behind. So, even though I'll be checking in throughout the show and making sure you guys didn't burn the place down, I probably won't be contributing much in terms of plot discussion. I promise to catch up, though—and soon!
If you're in the same boat as me, here are a few places you can go to get up to speed:
- As far as video recaps go, this one—Everything You Need to Know about LOST in Eight Minutes and Fifteen Seconds—is the best.
- If you prefer to get your learn on by reading, check out Richard Lawson's epic brain dump, Everything That's Happened on LOST So Far, Just from Memory.
- If you'd like to spend some time having lots of fun (and if you like nostalgia), check out Gawker.TV's LOST: Choose Your Own Adventure game.

Well, that's my spiel. Have fun, kids!
