The final season of Lost has just gotten a bit longer: ABC announced they are adding an extra hour to the popular drama’s sixth and final season.
Previously, fans were informed season six would last a paltry 17 hours; now, however, Entertainment Weekly’s Michael Ausiello reports via Twitter that the upcoming season will be a staggering 18 hours “including two-hour premiere and two-hour finale.”
Lost should return to TV early in 2010.

Just as there are whispers in the jungles of “Lost,” there have likewise been whispers in Hollywood that J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof — two of the masterminds behind that ABC television series — have been working on an adaptation of Stephen King’s classic “The Dark Tower” series. Now, those whispers are getting louder… and a lot more insistent.
“Damon Lindelof and I talked to Mr. King,” Abrams told IGN while promoting the upcoming “Star Trek” film. “We got the rights for ['Dark Tower'] as a film. Damon is obviously still on ‘Lost’ and we’ve been working on ‘Star Trek’ together. As soon as ‘Lost’ is done, hopefully we’ll begin tackling that.”
