Auseillo has confirmed that Lost will get its 14th hour this season. "We are very excited and grateful to [ABC president] Steve McPherson for working out the scheduling difficulties to allow us to make the second part of our finale two hours," says exec producer Carlton Cuse. "Damon and I were working on the script and we just couldn't get it all done in one hour without shortchanging the story. Now the finale will have all the sweep and emotional completeness we wanted it to have -- along with, of course, answering who's in the coffin." You read it correctly! We are now going to have a two hour season finale. There is one catch, we will have to wait two weeks from the May 15th episode. to the May 29th two hour finale.
ABC's agreement with Lost created some scheduling conflicts. May 22nd was suppose to be the night of finales. Lost's season finale had to move to a different night, which left ABC with a free hour at 9pm. To fill this void, Grey's Anatomy will know also get an extra hour and a two hour season finale. Lost finale will be three hours total. It will start with one hour on May 15th and conclude with the two hour fianle on May 29th.
Here is how the new schedule will run.
May 15
8 pm: Ugly Betty
9 pm: Grey's Anatomy
10 pm: Lost (part 1 finale)
May 22
8 pm: Ugly Betty finale
9-11 pm: Two-hour Grey's Anatomy finale

That's cool. I found myself listening to one of my favorite Bloodhound tunes, "Lift Your Head Up High and Blow Your Brains Out", after I watched "Meet Kevin Johnson" a few weeks back.
