Anybody whose faith in Lost was beginning to waiver will surely appreciate the fourth season of the show. For this is Lost firing on all cylinders, showing a willingness to answer a few more questions than usual, while not being afraid to deepen elements of the mystery of Ocean 815. The big new idea for Lost season four, as introduced in the cliffhanger at the end of the previous run, is flash-forwards, where we see some of the characters after they?ve left the island. This freshens the show immensely, and gives the writers some much-needed new meat to chew on. As a result, characters are more convincingly fleshed out, and more fun is had with the narrative in general. There are still a few of the ailments that have hindered Lost in the past. Whenever Matthew Fox?s Jack takes centre-stage, for instance, it still tends to be an episode to forget, while one or two sub-plots are allowed to meander a little more than they should. Yet it?s a transitionary season, moving the show towards its final two years by beginning to fill in some of the blanks we?ve been lacking. And with a cliffhanger at the end that, once more, has the potential to firmly pull the rug from under your feet, it?s very clear that Lost has plenty more tricks up its sleeve to come. A terrific season of an increasingly bold show. --Simon Brew

 Best season yet! July 3, 2008

Season 4 of LOST was absolutely amazing. Even I, an avid and absolute LOST addict, will admit to Season 3 being slightly lacking. There was definitely an uncertainty towards the beginning of season 3 as to where and when the show was going to culminate. The producers, having decided on a six season format, finally ramped up the storytelling mid-season 3 and have rarely let slip on the quality of the writing and watchabilty of this awesome show. Season 3's cliffhanger was totally unexpected and despite the un-Godly wait, due to the writer's strike, season 4 picked up nicely where 3 left off and the pace was clearly quickened due to the shows final season being set. Answers being given out left, right and centre...albeit with more questions being raised along the way. The genius of this program lies within the writers ability to draw the viewer in to and leave us wondering what is going to happen next. Curiousity is surely their best tool, at least for the committed viewer. I understand why some viewers became impatient with the questions upon questions and gave up on LOST, however I stand by my feelings that LOST is one of, if not the most, intelligently written shows on tv to date. I look forward to seeing where season 5 brings us. Season 4 was quality from start to finish with episodes such as "The Constant", "The Shape of Things To Come" and the multi-episode finale "There's No Place Like Home" being stand out episodes.
For new viewers, LOST needs to be watched from the beginning to truly see it's complexities, which shows just how cleverly it is written.
Patience is a virtue and I have faith that this show will live up to it's promise. With episodes filled with action, humour, heartache and a deep underlying mythology, as well as cliffhangers that leave me shouting at the tv for more. I have no doubt when all is said and done, this will be one of the defining tv shows of all time.
As 'Irina Derevko' said in another of JJ. Abrams tv series, "Truth takes time".
The only thing that saddens me is when will the UK be able to buy these LOST boxsets on blu-ray? The US has been able to buy previous seasons in Hi-Def and I am feeling left out especially after comments from America about how great the quality is. UK-ness, please offer us the same as our friends across the pond.

Lost Season 4 July 8, 2008

Definitely the best season of LOST, I'm pre-ordering it even though I watched every episode (bar 'Confirmed Dead') for the following reasons:
1. Contains the best ever episode, 'The Constant', which is frankly brilliant, and an amazing showcase of Henry Ian Cusick's acting ability.
2. Lots of mysteries are finally resolved, especially the flashforward at the end of season 3. There are more flashforwards than flashbacks, and finally the flashbacks have true relevance to the plot.
3. Ben, and Keamy's interplay is fantastic.
4. Not a single episode was below par, and I believe that all of them are actually better than the whole of season 2.
LOST Season 4 was seriously good television, and if Season 2 put you off and you never rejoined, I'd advise it. You are so missing out.

season 3 of lost was a bit of a hit and miss. it started off well enough, but got a bit dare i say it boring in the middle, then picked up again for a superb final 2 episodes. season 4 picks up the quality from there on in, and i can honestly say that this is the best season since season 1. the idea of using flashforwards instead of flashbacks is brilliant, and now at last, we are starting to get some answers. lost was in serious danger of becoming like the x files, went on for way too long, (and i am a massive x files fan)and getting so bogged down in its own mythology that even the writers had lost track and given up trying to sort it all out. but this season is classic lost, even though it's a shorter season due to the writer's strike. favourite character is now ben. i prefer him over the rather dull jack any day. just who's side is this guy actually on??!! and brace yourselves for an absolutely stunning series finale. brilliant.
Lost- The Best Show on Television June 28, 2008

Still the best show on television, Lost returns with a breath-taking fourth season!
With action, mystery, tension and even a little romance, Lost has something for everyone!
In this season, the Losties are torn as to whether or not the Freighties are good or bad, and reveals how Jack, Kate and others got off of the island!
Not to be missed, this season is fantastic and a great addition to the Lost phenomenon.
THE BEST!!! June 29, 2008

So many reasons why LOST is the best TV show around. Even more reasons why this was the best season. Strongly reccomend this show if you have seen the previous three seasons!
Just brilliance!
