I figured I would start a thread for this and see what happens....there seemed to be quite a few viewers on the board for this show the past few weeks.....I like the direction the show is taking so far......episode 3 tonight at 7 central on ABC....

Two tidbits:

1) Reason for the promos being all old footage is that they aren't allowed to show any new footage. ABC is respecting Cuse and Lindelof's wishes there.

2) RETURNING FEB 2nd 9PM. Yes, that's TUESDAYS at 9/8C.

I was just on my way over hear to post this.

I was really hoping they'd push it back to 10pm EST. Oh well... still can't wait to get the LOST party started!

They don't want to break up their current Wednesday night lineup, which is doing very well for them and unlike LOST, has a future with the network.

Yeah, but it started on Thursdays, IIRC. So Thursday seemed to be the better option.

I think it started on Wednesdays for Season 1 and 2, went to Thursdays for Season 3 and 4, back to Wednesdays for 5, and now Tuesdays for 6.

Is American Idol on on Tuesdays as well?

Red Brooklyn · 11-19-2009, 04:44 PM

Actually, I think it started on Wednesday (correct me if I'm wrong, I didn't watch S1 as it aired, I started w/ S2 weekly), then moved to Thursday for a season, then back to Wednesday. Now it'll end on Tuesday. I, for one, like it being earlier in the week. Though, I would've preferred Monday night. Of course, you gotta think they're not going to want to compete with themselves and MNF.

Yes. Therefore, lots are expecting LOSTs numbers to suffer as Idol viewers time-shift LOST to watch Idol live.

Monday is a log jam cluster****. Chuck, Heroes, House, 24 just to name a few.

**Buck** · 11-19-2009, 04:51 PM

I think Season 1 and 2 aired at 8 pm, Season 3 at 9 pm, Season 4 at 10 pm, Season 5 at 9 pm, I was hoping Season 6 would go back to 8 pm.

I know. But I don't watch any of those.

And I'm off on Monday... it's not a hassel to get home into time for the 9pm EST start time.

Seriously though, I'm good with Tuesday. Suits me just fine.

And, yeah, S1-3 aired on Wed. S4 changed to Thurs. S5 was back to Wed. FTR.

Except no one wants to go against CSI, even now.

Keep in mind that they've been losing viewers with each successive season.

Red Brooklyn · 11-19-2009, 05:22 PM

It will be interesting to see what kind of numbers LOST gets in it's final season. I think some people who jumped ship years ago will come back (at least from time to time) to get the answers they so craved 5 years ago. Of course it won't make any sense to them and they'll find a reason to hate it.

But I predict, at least the finale, will get huge ratings.

I think LOST would easily compete with CSI this year.

They lost me when they killed off Warrick and Grissom left. I still DVR it and occasionally watch it, but most of the time I just delete it.

We still watch it, but it's not nearly as good now.

And that three-part show between Vegas, Miami and New York was HORRIBLE - absolutely ****ing HORRIBLE - a stupid gimmick show that was obviously slapped together quickly. Some of the worst TV I've seen in a long time, featuring really bad performances from some really good actors.
