''[[Lost (TV series)|Lost]]'' is an American [[Serial (radio and television)|serial]] drama television series created by [[J. J. Abrams]] and [[Damon Lindelof]] for [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]]. Abrams directed [[Pilot (Lost)|the pilot episode]], which was based upon an original script titled ''Nowhere'' written by [[Jeffrey Lieber]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.buddytv.com/articles/lost/how-lost-almost-went-nowhere-9104.aspx |title=How 'Lost' Almost Went 'Nowhere' |access-date=November 17, 2009 |date=August 6, 2007 |last=Lachonis |first=Jon |publisher=BuddyTV |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100306181141/http://www.buddytv.com/articles/lost/how-lost-almost-went-nowhere-9104.aspx |archive-date=March 6, 2010 |df=mdy-all }}</ref> Six seasons of the show aired, in addition to numerous [[clip show]]s to recap previous episodes.
 
The series follows the experiences of the survivors of a plane crash on a passenger jet, [[Oceanic Airlines|Oceanic]] Flight 815, which crashed on [[Mythology of Lost#The Island|a tropical island]] in the South Pacific, with each episode typically featuring action on the island as well as a secondary storyline from another point in a character's life. The series also includes stories of the lives of people already living on the island — they include the "[[Others (Lost)|Others]]", who initially antagonize the survivors, as well as a group of people who arrive on the freighter ''Kahana''. ''[[Lost: Missing Pieces]]'' consists of thirteen original two- to three-minute clips referred to as "mobisodes" which were produced for cell phones and released between seasons [[Lost season 3|three]] and [[Lost season 4|four]]. Multiple [[List of Lost cast members|former and recurring cast members]] made an appearance in [[The End (Lost)|the series finale]].
The following is a complete '''episode list''' for the series ''[[Lost (TV series)|Lost]]'', which began on [[September 22]], [[2004]]. In addition to the twenty-four episodes in season one, a special [[clip show]], ''[[Lost: The Journey]]'', was aired on [[April 27]], [[2005]] to put the mysteries of the island and the characters in perspective in the lead-up to the season finale. Season 2 included [[#Specials/Recaps|three more clip-shows]] to [[recap]] the series. The series ended its second season on [[May 24]]. The third season debuted on [[October 4]], [[2006]].

{{Main|Lost season 4}}
Season four began airing on January 31, 2008, and concluded on May 29, 2008. Production began in August 2007 and was prematurely stopped in November 2007 due to the [[2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike]]. The original plan was to air all sixteen episodes in one consecutive block, uninterrupted by repeats.<ref>{{cite magazine|url=https://ew.com/article/2007/05/09/end-lost-two-execs-give-us-scoop/ |title=A Map for 'Lost' |access-date=June 29, 2006 |last=Jensen |first=Jeff |date=May 8, 2006 |magazine=[[Entertainment Weekly]] |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070510032125/http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0%2C%2C20038202_3%2C00.html |archive-date=May 10, 2007}}</ref> After the strike was resolved, it was decided that the remaining story for the season would be condensed into what co-creator [[Damon Lindelof]] called a "lean, mean five". This would include a three-hour finale, after Lindelof and [[Carlton Cuse]] petitioned ABC. Due to the time lost to the strike there was a mini-hiatus after the eighth episode had aired.
