Lost moving to SKY ONE!!! - TV Programmes

C14E · 19-10-2006, 13:54

Digitalspy are reporting that Channel 4 have lost the rights to Lost to Sky One. If its true, it is a huge boost to attempts to revive Sky One, while a big blow for Channel 4.

There's already a thread about this in Cult

This is... awful. It is a big loss for Channel 4 - Lost was still getting around 4m over it's 4 showings.

I guess it's good for the studio though - more DVDs to sell Id imagine - not to mention however many million Sky One are paying them.

Meh, Lost is past it's best anyway.

lea27 · 19-10-2006, 14:22

this is bad for those without Sky. also wonder if Sky One will be showing two lots of the episodes?! im not talking about sky subscripers because im on telewest instead.

Cent · 19-10-2006, 14:24

It'll be on Sky Three in 1-2 years though wont it?

Blake Connolly · 19-10-2006, 14:32

Excellent news, it'll be in HD and hopefully if they do what they're doing with 24 it'll be on sooner rather than later.

Rowey · 19-10-2006, 14:34

Excellent news Lost should look great on SKY One HD.

19-10-2006, 14:38

cant believe it, for people who dont have sky, its sucks. One of the best programmes around cant be seen by quite a few million people.

Mandrake · 19-10-2006, 14:39

I am gutted...

This was the best thing on terrestial TV.
I refuse to go back to Sky TV for my own reasons, but I have to say I was tempted by this as I am sure many will be also.
Clever move by SKY....dumb ass one by Channel 4!

Rowey · 19-10-2006, 14:43

I wonder if Sky One will also buy Desperate Housewives as thats coming up for renewal soon.
