Lost all night…
There’s nothing surprising about a group of fans singing along to the theme tune of their favorite TV show. Well, perhaps, but not if we’re talking about ABC’s ‘Lost.'
This actually happened on the 3rd of July at the Curzon Cinema in Mayfair, London, when up to one hundred followers of the series managed to hum in crescendo the eerie and mysterious theme of the hit TV series during a Q&A session with creators and producers of the show Damon Lindelof, Carlton Cuse and Jack Bender.
It was confirmed during this evening that the series will end in its sixth season and the creators have no intentions of pursing the show in comic-book format.
But not all is lost! Fans will be pleased to know that when the show ends next year, ‘Lost’ nights would very likely be organized in cinemas across the world, giving people a chance to view the show on a giant-screen and enjoy the collective viewing experience.
So it will be Lost forever.
