Lost showrunner Damon Lindelof has revealed that he is planning to confuse viewers further in season five.

Speaking at the Comic-Con convention in San Diego, Lindelof claimed that fans will feel disorientated during the season's opening scenes.

He explained: "When season five starts, you won't know when or where you are. And the way we tell stories will be different too."

Meanwhile, his fellow executive producer Carlton Cuse admitted that he is grateful to finally have an end date for Lost. The show will be completed with a sixth season in 2010.

"For us it was a huge advantage to get an end date to the show and that really allowed us to turn a corner," he said. "We knew exactly how much story we had left. It really invigorated series four and it's been very exciting as we plan series five now."

Great as if we were not confused enough allready though that is one of the main reasons people dont watch and when you ask them why they say becuase "its too confusing i dont get it" like a certain ex mate of mine!! (The reason we are not friends is not becuase she doesnt watch lost lol)
If you ask me you cant start watching a show at Season 4 and expect to know whats goin on can you

She was such an idiot !!!

Anyway as for the Confusingness we survied for years of it we can survive two more

They really love leaving us lost don't they?

The episode that had me the most confused was Expose when they gave you Nikki and Paolo's back story.

The episode before Expose was a cliff hanger and then they started with those two boring drips! I thought I was watching the wrong programme for about five minutes!

The plots seem easy peasy to me compared to that episode where they focussed on Nikki and Paolo.

They can confuse me as much as they like as long as they stick with the faces I know and love!

lol! I wasnt really watching the episode properly tbh then when I watched it again I was like was it this boring first time round?

freckles08 · 07-29-2008, 10:51 PM

lol Exposé was the Stupidest episode ever it was soooo pointless becuase it was pretty obvious that no one cared about Nina and Pablo and its like the writers thought lets give them a whole episode whilst Jack looked like he was on the others team and kate locke and Sayid are trapped by the others !!!!!!!!!

lost-lover · 07-29-2008, 10:52 PM

Expose has to be my worst episode of Lost. Total filler and completely boring, made worse by the fact that it meant we had to wait longer for the cliffhanger from the previous episode.

harvey107 · 07-29-2008, 11:40 PM

Expose, thats an hour of my life i will never get back

I also thought I was watching the wrong channel when it came on!

I couldnt agree more.

I think the change-up will be interesting. I like the idea of mixing it up a bit, it will keep us on our toes and make us have to think a bit.

Reed · 07-30-2008, 02:15 PM

I think you are all being a little too hard on Exposé. It did give us that brilliant flashback to the Pilot afterall.

Great article harvey, sounds brilliant.

Miss Austen · 07-30-2008, 02:20 PM

Yeah! That was the only good thing about it; but the beginning totally had me flummoxed.

Although, to be honest, I'd have felt a bit miffed if I was Shannon and Boone. Fancy being invited back to create the opening scene just to show these two no-hopers (Knickers and Pancho) and promptly oust them from the show!

At least Shannon and Boone died with dignity!

We were all sitting on the edge of our seats waiting for the resumption of the cliff hanger and then we see some blonde bird in a show and it's like:

What the heck is this? Where's Lost? Who ARE these people? Am I watching Lost or what? Changes channel - no it's definitely the right channel. Oh! I'd better sit down and watch this cos it IS Lost despite me not having a clue what relevance these people have to the story!

The_abbott · 07-30-2008, 02:27 PM

Are you serious? Expose worst episode ever?

What about such dreadful classics as:

"What Kate did"
"Season 3 episode 9" - Jack's Tattoo story whose name I have forgotten it was so DULL!
"...and Found". An hour of finding a ring

At least Expose had some action and drama and funny moments in it.
