It has been one of the longest, slowest moving hiatuses in history...at least for me! But in a little over 47 days the best show to ever grace the small screen will return to us once again. As previsously mentioned here, January 21 is the date, with a 1 hour recap special (I'm starting to love these!) followed by the first two episodes, back to back, of season 5.

It is no doubt that most of you probably noticed that as Lost took a hiatus, so did many of the familiar faces at SWLS. In fact, apparently only Juggy didn't have enough accumulated vacation time to escape for a few months (or perhaps he pissed off Sledge). Juggy has been the glue of our contributors here and has definitely held the site together, without any other help, for the entire hiatus. Thanks Juggy! Everyone else be sure to let Juggy know how much you appreciate his time, energy, and excitement.

But with SWLS back in action, and Lost soon to follow, its time to make this site one of your everyday stops. So add us back to your bookmarks, send all of your friends an email, subscribe to the RSS feed to stay in the loop on new articles. The Island commands this of you! And stay tuned for all of the latest and greatest Lost updates.
