The sixth and final season of Lost premieres on ABC February 2, 2010. Although the show’s new time slot will occupy the 9-10PM Eastern block on Tuesday nights, the show’s February 2 return will be marked with a special three hours of Lost beginning at 8PM Eastern. The first hour will be a recap of the events leading up to the sixth season, while the remaining two hours kick things off with the traditional extra-long first episode of the season.
Like Gilligan’s Island without the funny, the castaways of Lost have been trapped on the island for what seems like an eternity. In TV-time, it’s been six years since J.J. Abrams’ action-adventure/mystery aired on ABC and in that time, Lost has made a heavy impact on how movies and television series are structured. It’s large ensemble cast of characters (that expanded over the years) simultaneously drove the plot and their situation in conjunction with these unique personalities interacting with one another also defined the plot.
The president has Lost fans in a tizzy. It’s being reported that President Obama’s State of the Union Address may be moved to Feb. 2, the same night of the final season premiere of Lost.
The Washington Post is reporting that fans, who have already waited nearly five years to see the show’s biggest mysteries unravel, will have to wait even longer while Obama discusses health care and national security.
The President’s annual speech usually happens on a weeknight at 9 p.m. sometime in late January. The Networks had planned their schedules around news that the speech would take place Jan. 26.
As I explained yesterday, its upfront week. This morning, ABC and NBC announced their fall line-ups. Here’s a look at what’s staying and what’s going on ABC.

Here’s a look at the full schedule for ABC (after the jump):
We start this weeks episode with Jin, who is slowly comingback to reality when he hears his radio saying the hostile escaped. Jin radios back that he was attacked and that the hostile is northbound. Jin then goes on to find Ben, who’s dying on the road after being shot. Back at the barracks, the fire is out, and Horace astutely points out that the fire was a diversion so the hostile could escape. Horace goes on to state that someone helped him, and it had to be someone on the inside. Roger and Kate are pulling the van out when Jin shows up and carries Ben inside. Roger rushes in as well.
So I’m finally caught up again with Lost after slacking this past week, and we’re into last ngiht’s episode “He’s Our You.” As I mentioned yesterday, we found a young Ben Linus, who in this episode tells Sayid that he met Richard Alpert and then goes on to offer his help in getting Sayid to escape.
So I didn’t get a chance to recap the latest Lost episode last week, so we’ll go over it now and keep upcoming recaps a bit more timely. Important parts of the episode involve Lapidus crash landing Ajia flight 316 on the Hydra island, which if you recall is located off the shore of the main one where the series began. Ben and Sun are on the plane, but Jack, Kate, Hurley and Sayid have all gone missing.
We do see Sawyer …
We’re back at the well in the jungle, watching eagerly while Saqyer observes Locke’s descent. Sawyer hears the hum beginning and knows that another flash is on the way. He tells Locke to hold on and the flash washes over them. Again, the well isn’t there anymore and the rope goes directly into the ground. Sawyer tries to dig it out, but no go, Locke is gone. They’ve gone to a time …
A man walks into an office and begins searching through files and folders with the Dharma logo and formulas on it. He also picks up a sawed-off shotgun that’s stuffed under the desk. Another woman enters and calls him byt he name of Caesar. Llana is her name, and she tells him they found a man standing in the water wearing a suit. Curious, they head out together.
As they cross through the jungle area, Llana points out that the man wasn’t …
