Pop-Up Lost

As we inch ever closer and closer to Thursday’s season premier of Lost, The Futon Critic has some exciting news for all us Losties. In preparation for Season 4, ABC will be airing Lost’s Season 3 two-hour finale, “Through the Looking Glass,” this Wednesday. Not only that but it will be “enhanced with on-screen facts and back story.” (link)

ABCI’m imagining something like VH1’s Pop-Up Video, one of my all time favorite TV guilty pleasures, but I don’t think it will be all that similar from the description of the event in ABC’s press release. According to ABC, “the enhanced version of Lost will include text on the lower third of the screen and will ‘let viewers in’ on clues in the show, as well as give back story to catch new viewers up for Season Four.” (link) While I usually don’t like watching repeats, I’m pretty intrigued to see what new information, if any, will be shared as to these so-called clues in Season 3’s finale.
