It was confirmed today that, in the UK, Sky One will be the new site for Lost. The channel, which is the most popular sattelite and cable broadcaster in the United Kingdom, outbid Channel Four, and other networks, such as Five during the re-negotiations between Channel Four and Buena Vista International.
The show has been broadcast on Channel Four since the summer of 2004, and it has come as a shock that it is now moving over to the Sky network. Spokespeople from the network are understood to be 'very excited' about the move.
The show had suffered dwindling ratings on Channel Four during season two. During Season One, Lost advertisements, spin offs and documentaries were hardly off the air, whilst during Season Two, these were sparse, with hardly and advertisements being shown at all.
Hopes are high for Sky One advertising campaign. Surely with a new show, they'll work hard to promote it. And, with the Sky networks usual high standard, things are looking good for Lost ratings when Season 3 begins in the spring of next year.
