Comments
I think the reason Lost delays is that they know there is demand for the product and they time it for the Holiday shopping season. Weaker shows need to get DVDs out ASAP to help build fan interest for the next season IMO.

Sounds great but I was kind of hoping for the inclusion of the "missing pieces" snippets. Especially given the shortened season. Darn.

looks cool, is that buildings in the reflection of the water? as in the oceanic 6 getting off the island?

The image with the buildings in the water has been around for a few months. Most studios time the previous year's DVD release just before the new season airs. That said, not including the mobisodes is F'in UNACCEPTABLE !! As many of us as possible should bitch about this, especially since we'll be paying the same (as we have for previous seasons) for a season with LESS episodes. Let TPTB know we are dissatisfied.

It kind of sucks because they already used Blue for the Season 1 DVD. Are they just going to make Season 5 Orange and 6 Green? I suggest darker colors like gray or possibly black. Oh well, I won't care

I like that it comes out right before the new season. We don't have a TV and - because we can't get streaming where we are - watch via iTunes, but we STILL buy the (fraktabulous) DVD set, timing the last episode right before the season premiere.
My only complaint (other than those mentioned above) is... why isn't Michael on the cover? He's no mystery anymore and he deserves to be back there (of course, Russeau has always deserved to be there, but has been denied). Surreal not to see Charlie there.

Lets start a petition to get the mobisodes added... who can we write to?

The reason it takes so long is that Lost is not broadcasted simultaneously in the US & all over the world...In Germany the next season starts in fucking August!!! So in order to max out the traditional benefits resp. mula generated thru ratings and ads, I guess, they wait till most countries have the show...People, Lost is also huge outside the US....

i strongly suggest to put the Lost:Missing Pieces in the dvds. also it would be cool if we could optionally view the episodes on dvd with a special enhanced version, like we see online. i just want my money's worth, you know what i mean?
