OVERVIEW
The fourth season of the American serial drama television series Lost (also known previously as Lost: The Return) commenced airing on the American Broadcasting Company Network in the United States,[1] and on CTV in Canada on January 31, 2008 and concluded on May 29, 2008. The season continues the stories of a group of over forty people who have been stranded on a remote island in the South Pacific, after their airplane crashed there more than ninety days prior to the beginning of the season.[2] According to Lost's executive producers/writers/show runners Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, there are two main themes in fourth season: "the castaways' relationship to the freighter folk"[3] and "who gets off the island and the fact that they need to get back".[4] Lost came under scrutiny from critics in its third season, but the fourth season was hailed for its flashforwards, pace and new characters.[5]
The season was originally planned to contain sixteen episodes; eight were filmed before the start of the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike.[6] Following the strike's resolution, it was announced that only five more episodes would be produced to complete the season;[7] however, the season finale's script was so long that network executives approved the production of a fourteenth episode as part of a three-hour season finale split over two nights.[8] Buena Vista Home Entertainment released the season on DVD and Blu-ray Disc under the title Lost: The Complete Fourth Season – The Expanded Experience on December 9, 2008 in Region 1;[9] however, it was released earlier—on October 20, 2008—in Region 2.[10]
