Damnit! no new LOST tonight?

I notice a lot of series are doing that now to keep viewership over the whole season. I think I'm at the point where I am cutting off the satellite, and will just rent the series' seasons that I want to watch and watch them at my leisure.
 
yah i forgot about that ... i don't have anything to watch tonight 🙁

when does The Unit come on? I have started watching the first few episodes (am on episode 3) and don't even know what time it comes on.

they are doing it cause they started the show in September. THey need to make a 24 episode season go from September to May ... that's 24 episodes in about 36 weeks. It makes sense that they have these breaks.

Whereas 24 starts in Late January and ends in May ... that's about 17 - 18 weeks for 24 episodes, which is why you have seen them show back to back episodes 3 nights in a row arleady, 2 of those nights being back to back (first week = 4 episodes).

Sure it sucks big time, but it makes sense as to why they actually do it. Me personally, I'd rather wait for LOST to air it's new season 4 months later so we don't have to have these gaps than the way they are currently doing it.

I agree, I hate these breaks. They took one really big break there for three freaking weeks.

is it on tonight? that might be an ok filler until lost comes back...

I saw the preview of it...it show her holding a baby...when did she get one? 😕
 
yep, the breaks get old. how are we supposed to keep up with all the story lines when there is so much of a gap. Then the reruns usually show an episode from first season with people who are no longer in the cast.

Damn! Why does this series take so many breaks?

It doesn't take any more breaks than other series. They do 24 episodes per season. That's 24 weeks with a new episode and 28 weeks without one, the same as '24' and the same as 'ER'. In fact Lost takes fewer breaks than many other dramas. CSI only does 23 episodes per season and House does 22.
 
Bah I'm too f'in busy anyway to watch it. I do agree they should schedule their shows like '24' though and wait until later to start so there isn't large breaks.

Tuesday nights at 8pm CST Good show, I watch that right after NCIS.

I'm glad to see the last episodes of Alias, Jennifer Garner is pretty hot if you ignore the abnormally large ears and the semi square jaw.
 
Once it starts up in May again it's 4 straight new episodes including a 2 hour finale 😀

But then the long wait til september!
