The 14th Hour

There's a pretty great rumor kicking around in the Lost world. Looks like an additional hour is going to be added to the season! Yep, our 16-episode season that was shortened to 13 due to the strike may have an additional hour tacked onto it. How, you ask? Will this mean that we get a two-hour show? Does the season stretch out for another week? Those are the very questions being asked over at TV Guide.com. And they don't have answers either.

• If the dream becomes a reality, how would it work? As it stands, Lost's Season 4 climax is slated to air on May 22 on a season-finale-themed night that also includes the cappers of Ugly Betty and Grey's Anatomy. So would the additional Lost hour be broadcast the following Thursday? Or would it perhaps run on another night?
• What does this do to the finale that was going to air on May 22? Would elements of it be incorporated into the new finale? Would this 14th hour come before that episode? And since we were originally supposed to get 16 eppies this season before the strike cut that number back to 13, does this mean we would now be getting a season finale that is more in line with what Darlton intended? Or more exposition that they ran out of time to include? The mind boggles.

In my little world, there's no such thing as too much Lost. Bring it on.
