Season four of Lost was a fine return to form for the series, which polarized its audience the year before with its focus on The Others and not enough on our original crash victims. That season's finale introduced a new storytelling device--the flash-forward--that's employed to great effect this time around; by showing who actually got off the island (known as the Oceanic Six), the viewer is able to put to bed some longstanding loose ends. As the finale attests, we see that in the future Jack (Matthew Fox) is broken, bearded, and not sober, while Kate (Evangeline Lilly) is estranged from Jack and with another guy (the identity may surprise you). Four others do make it back to their homes, but as the flash-forwards show, it's definitely not the end of their connection to the island. Back in present day, however, the islanders are visited by the denizens of a so-called rescue ship, who have agendas of their own. While Jack works with the newcomers to try to get off the island, Locke (Terry O'Quinn), with a few followers of his own, forms an uneasy alliance with Ben (Michael Emerson) against the suspicious gang. Some episodes featuring the new characters feel like filler, but the evolution of such characters as Sun and Jin (Yunjin Kim and Daniel Dae Kim) is this season's strength; plus, the love story of Desmond (Henry Ian Cusick) and Penny (Sonya Walger) provides some of the show's emotional highlights. As is the custom with Lost, bullets fly and characters die (while others may or may not have). Moreover, the fate of Michael (Harold Perrineau), last seen traitorously sailing off to civilization in season two, as well as the flash-forwards of the Oceanic Six, shows you never quite leave the island once you've left. There's a force that pulls them in, and it's a hook that keeps you watching. Season four was a shorter 13 episodes instead of the usual 22 due to the 2008 writers' strike; nonetheless, the set comes with two discs of extras. One of the best features is "LOST in 8:15," which is a rapid-fire summation of the series thus far in eight minutes, 15 seconds. Narrated by a hilariously droll female, it includes lines such as "Jack meets Kate. Kate stitches up Jack. They bond." and "They see Jack play football with Mr. Friendly. Mr. Friendly throws like a girl." The featurette "The Right to Bear Arms" takes a fun look at the prop masters responsible for supplying the castaways with guns--and keeping track of who has one and who doesn't (best here is Sawyer's (Josh Holloway) assertion that characters often cock their guns just to look cool). Cast members Lilly, Garcia, Yunjin Kim, and Daniel Dae Kim provide a few of the commentaries, and the set even comes with an amusing safety guide for Oceanic Airlines. (Example: "if you notice black smoke emanating from the plane, please alert the captain. It is either a problem with the engines or a mysterious creature.") Finally, for those who bought the standard-def DVD, take a closer look at the front cover after you've removed the O-sleeve; you'll notice the entire cast has been blacked out save for a few: the Oceanic Six. --Ellen A.

I bought this for my son's birthday. No complaints from him, and he and his fiancee are major Lost fans. It arrived on time; no problems. I guess all is well!

I'll admit, I was a little worried about lost after season 3. Sure, there were plenty of good episodes, but there too many filler episodes, and things seemed to be moving in a direction of aimlessness. Luckily, Season 4 returned to greatness, and was arguably the best season yet. The story was rather well done, as the story involved the characters off the island, and how they got off the island in the first place, ending almost at the same time as season 3 ended. Mysteries were answered, while some new ones were added, but the important thing was that it was well written, acted, and incredibly entertaining the entire time. I highly recommend it as a fan of lost, and a fan of excellent television in general.

Another great Lost season although not my favorite January 3, 2010

Lost Season Four is shorter than the first three seasons due to the Writer's Strike, but it packs a lot of developments into its truncated season. The show is notable for its dazzlingly effective use of flashbacks. In Season Four it begins using flash-forwards to give us some notion as to if and how some of the survivors get off of the Island. Consistent with Season Three, Jack is having more than his share of issues and problems which do seem to derive back to his failed marriage, but maybe not. This part of the storyline seems wrong to me; Jack mostly has it together and that is who he is. But not here. This is not really a spoiler because this is obvious very early on in Season Four and even parts of Season Three. I also would have liked to have seen more development of Elizabeth Mitchell's Dr. Juliet Burke character. Good chemistry between her and Jack could have been used more, and more effectively. These are just opinions and they are fun to write about but no matter. This is a great season of a great miniseries.
Let's face it. If you made it to Season Four you do not care what I or any other reviewer thinks about the season. You are hooked, like I am. Enjoy! RJB.
