Lost on Thursdays?

According to Sci Fi Wire, ABC might be planning some changes in their Lost schedule. First of all, Lost might get moved to Thursdays and second – it seems like they have started listening to the fans:

The network could also decide to air Lost in two blocks of original episodes—one in the fall and one in the spring—with a hiatus midseason. This would eliminate the current on-again, off-again schedule of new episodes and reruns, while giving ABC a midseason opening to air a new show.

Also, USAToday hints at that Lost Season 3 might start to air in October.

Update: ABC Entertainment President Stephen McPherson has some more info according to Zap2it:

“We really wanted to just say to the audience, ‘Listen, it’s going to be on for this block here and then we’ll bring it back and it will run straight through’. So yes, the plan is that ‘Lost’ will come on in the fall in the first or second week of the season, run for seven episodes and then ‘Day Break’ will launch into that period and ‘Lost’ will come back in January or early February and run straight through for the remainder for the season.”

  1. Yes please! Has anyone but me been watching LOST on abc.com? It’s a really *sweet* experience! I’ve caught two now that my ReplayTV had missed (IR blaster fell off the cable box…todo: buy more glue), and it’s really nice to watch them in letterbox format. The commercials are less intrusive to the show as well.

    I think they’re doing this to prevent people swapping their shows on Bittorrent, and I’ll tell ya, it’s a whole lot easier and prettier to watch episodes you missed this way. No I do not work for abc. Corporations = The Others

  2. Nooooooooooooooooooooo!!! It can’t be on on Thursday! I’m a survivor watcher, I’ll have to choose between the two, I’ll obviously choose Lost, but… dang. Or maybe my beloved (catch the sarcasm) CTV will leave it on on Wednesday… that would be one of the very few things I would like them for.
    *sigh*
