LOST Pilot Episode to Air Day Before Series Finale

Just when you thought 5 hours were too many for the finale event on Sunday, ABC has confirmed we will get TWO more hours of LOST, but the night before the finale on Saturday May 22nd at 8PM.

ABC is planning a "Lost" weekend: The network has just scheduled a repeat showing of the show's two-hour 2004 pilot for the night before its finale.

The J.J. Abrams-directed, $10 million-plus spectacular will air Saturday, May 22, from 8-10 p.m., ABC told affiliates today. The two-hour finale will air the following evening from 9-11 p.m.

This brings the total number of "Lost" hours ABC is planning for the week of May 17 to 8. There's the penultimate episode of May 18; the pilot encore on May 22; a two-hour pre-show/recap on May 23; the finale itself; and "Jimmy Kimmel: After the Final Rose" (also on May 23).

The last time ABC aired the "Lost" pilot, by the way, was back in February 2006. It also got repeated in 2004 and 2005.
