User account creation disabled (spoiler lockdown)
By Plkrtn, Lostpedia staff
Due to vandalism that has occurred repeatedly since the release of the previously discussed spoilers for "There's No Place Like Home, Parts 2 & 3", we have had to temporarily disable user account creation on Lostpedia. This has been done to protect fans from being spoiled before the episode airs, and we hope our readers and editors can understand this decision. We apologize for any inconvenience caused, and user creation will be re-enabled after the finale airs. Read more and comment...
New Spoilers Restart Controversy
By Santa, Lostpedia staff
In the wake of a major scene-by-scene spoiler of the Season 4 finale by the Lost DarkUFO, I must say I'm disappointed (again) but not surprised. Apparently he has received very specific spoilers for the season finale, and has posted the synopsis of the first hour of three, apparently a very detailed scene-by-scene reveal. The proprietor of DarkUFO says he received the information from a source claiming to call himself Lostfan108. If you don't remember, Lostfan108 was the person who gave him the spoiler for the finale of Season 3. A new controversy is brewing, and we want to hear your opinions. Read more...

Lost adds hours
ABC extends final two seasons
By James Hibberd, Hollywood Reporter
05/09/2008 - ABC has found more hours for the final two seasons of Lost. The 2009 and 2010 editions of the hit drama will be 17 hours each -- not 16 as previously planned.
ABC has added two hours to the show's production plan because the WGA strike knocked three hours out of the current season. To partly compensate, the network recently added an additional hour to Part 2 of the season finale that airs May 29. All told, the changes will wrap up the show with the same number of episodes that producers and ABC negotiated last year. Read more...
