LOST Is On The Move

The Blot had read a report last week that ABC was considering moving Lost to a new time slot since there would be very few scripted shows running new episodes in the spring. That rumor was confirmed today by The Hollywood Reporter. Lost will now be ABC's flagship show this spring with new episodes being shown at the coveted Thursday at 9/8 central time slot, the current home of Grey's Anatomy.

EDIT: The date for the start of Lost's Season 4 has officially been set! Lost will begin airing new episodes on Thursday, January 31st. (Link)


This change marks the first time Lost has not aired on Wednesday nights since the show debuted three years ago. This time slot is considered the most important night and time for broadcasters and will be a great litmus test of whether or not Lost has completely rebounded from its sophomore slump. It has already been announced that NBC will be running new episodes of Celebrity Apprentice against Lost in that very time slot.
