"Lost" (10:00-11:00 p.m.)
No. 1 in its new time period for 4 weeks in a row, ABC's "Lost" overshadowed its 10 o'clock competition among Adults 18-49 (5.0/13), defeating second-place CBS' season finale of "Without a Trace" by 39% (3.6/10) and third-place NBC's "ER" finale by 52% (3.3/9). In fact "Lost" ranked No. 1 in its time period among Adults 18-49 for its 12th consecutive original airing this season. "Lost" ranked No. 1 in Thursday's 10:00 p.m. hour for the 4th straight week in all key adults, men and women.

* Continuing to demonstrate strong retention of its "Grey's" lead-in with key adults, "Lost" built on its lead-in for the 4th time in as many weeks across all key men demos (M18-34/M18-49/M25-54). "Lost" was Thursday's No. 1 TV show with Men 18-49 (4.2/12) for the 4th straight week.

I suspect most people will watch the final in 2 weeks.
It's going ot be harrowing to have to wait two weeks and I know lots of people who can't take that.
They'll, like me, simply watch all 3 hours back to back to back on the 29th.
Furthermore, nearly everyone has ended already or will end the 22nd. Lost is one of the very few shows continuing to the 29th. So, it'll be interesting to see how high in the rankings it'll get. :)
Do the rating's include people who dvr it and watch it later? I think alot of people are doing that cause of the late time slot.
A few months ago I was shouting on these boards about the 10 PM timeslot that doesn't let my husband watch, as he wakes up too early for his own good. So while I watch it live, I have to DVR it for him and he usually watches it over the weekend, as Friday is "Battlestar Galactica" time for us (it broadcasts at 7 PM where I am instead of 10 PM, because somehow Comcast feeds us with the East Coast programming for SciFi Channel).

No. DVRs are tallied for 7 days and then released seperately.
Lost is typically number 2 in DVRs... but that was at 9pm. I'd imagine it's even higher now that it's at 10.
This doesn't count viewing on other channels either. Hmm..
I always find Rating to be depressing, especially in a graph that shows how the show has sunk in ratings.
It is a shame that Hollywood is so slow to embrace the new technologies that are revolutionizing the way people entertain themselves.
DVR stats should not be a separate statistic.
silent impression I agree. It sucks for me to look at the graph every week and see how high the ratings were at one time. The fact that season 3 had to skip a few months killed the show and they will never show how great the show was once it is way over.
There is also people who get the show off Itunes every week. Lost is always in the top ten downloaded.
Also, LOST is the (second?) most viewed show on the world. I would say it's doing pretty well after four seasons.

Actually, it's number one.
It's sold to more countries around the world than any other show on television.
