What are you talking about? They ordered four this season and are airing them all.

Here is the low-down on the episodes of Lost at Home in question.
In April of 2002 the pilot episode was filmed under the title of "Untitled Michael Jacobs Project"; later called "My Second Chance" before becoming "Lost at Home". In May of the same year, ABC ordered 12 episodes of Lost at Home to be produced as a mid-season replacement for the network. Production began in October and seven new episodes were completed before ABC stopped production in December, due to the success of their other sitcoms and giving them full season orders. So.....
There are in fact 8 completed episodes of Lost at Home. As to if the other 4 will ever make it to air is yet to be seen. If so, they likely would not be broadcast until the fall if ABC decides to bring the show back.
I encourage you to contact ABC and voice your support of the show to assure that they bring this great program back in the fall lineup.
