What if it's all just a big social experiment and they're all watching from the Pearl Station RIGHT NOW!?
Here's how I understand the situation.... After seeing the success that 24 had (woot!) going straight through the season (January through May) with no repeats, ABC thought they would try something similar. They didn't want to leave Lost off the Fall Sched, so instead, they gave us one mini-season, and then take a break for the holidays. This way, you're not expecting anything new. They'll just put on repeats, but not mix them up with new episodes. Which is great for me because now I can get caught up on the OC! Ahem. AND think how great it'll be when it comes back in January and you get to go straight through with no repeats!

I think it's just fabulous. I just KNOW they're going to treat this week's ep like a REAL season finale with some story lines being tied up and a nice fat cliffhanger. It's like two Lost seasons in one! It's like.... magic.
