Just thought I'd post this, as I don't think it's been posted before, sorry if I missed it

Anyway, Lost season 1 (naturally) will be released on DVD in September .. I've been taping it, but I might just wait till the set comes out. It sounds like its going to be good, with lots of extras on it. Yay!

[AnaheimPMWitch]

thanks for the heads up

[Janet McFarland]

Oh yeah I heard about that! I can't wait

[barwars]

Definite must-have.... especially considering I missed a ton of episodes after the first few, up until a few weeks a go.

LOST is the thrilling adventure of 48 survivors of a plane crash, all stranded on an island that holds many secrets.
Matthew Fox (“Party of Five”) stars as Jack, the quick-thinking doctor and group leader.

Stripped of everything, the 48 survivors scavenge what they can from the plane for their survival. Some panic.
Some pin their hopes on rescue. A few find inner strength they never knew they had — like Kate (Evangeline
Lilly), who, with no medical training, suddenly finds herself suturing the doctor's wounds. Hurley (Jorge Garcia,
TV’s “Becker”) — a man with a warm sense of humor despite the desperate situation — does his best to keep his
cool as he helps those around him to survive. Charlie (Dominic Monaghan, “The Lord of the Rings” Trilogy) is a
faded rock star who harbors a painful secret. Sayid (Naveen Andrews, “Bride and Prejudice”) is a Middle Eastern
man who must wrestle with the racial profiling directed at him by some of his fellow survivors.

Jin (Daniel Dae Kim, TV’s “24”) and Sun (Yunjin Kim, “Shiri”) are a Korean couple whose traditions, values and
language are foreign, causing much to get lost in the translation. Sawyer (Josh Holloway, TV’s “Sabretooth”) has
an air of danger surrounding him, and his intense sense of mistrust for everyone around him could prove to be fatal
to his fellow castaways. Michael (Harold Perrineau, TV’s “Oz”) has just gained custody of his nine-year-old son,
Walt (Malcolm David Kelley, “Antwone Fisher”), after the death of his ex-wife — they are a father and son who
don't even know each other. Locke (Terry O'Quinn, TV’s “The West Wing”) is a mysterious man who keeps to
himself, and who harbors a deeper connection to the island than any of the others. Claire (Emile de Ravin, TV’s
“The Beastmaster”) is pregnant. Self-centered Shannon (Maggie Grace, TV’s “Cold Case”) and her estranged
controlling brother, Boone (Ian Somerhalder, TV’s “Young Americans”), constantly bicker and must learn to get
along if they are to survive.

The band of friends, family, enemies and strangers must work together against the cruel weather and harsh terrain if
they want to stay alive. But the island holds many secrets, including the intense howls of the mysterious creatures
stalking the jungle, which fill them all with fear. Fortunately, thanks to the calm leadership of quick-thinking Jack
and level-headed Kate, they have hope. But even heroes have secrets, as the survivors will come to learn.

J.J. Abrams (creator of “Alias”) and Damon Lindelof, who co-created LOST, serve as executive producers along
with Bryan Burk, Carlton Cuse and Jack Bender. LOST, which is filmed entirely on location in Hawaii, is from
Touchstone Television.

Actually, I was mistaken. The Best Buy Exclusive Disc has "Lost: The Journey" not TV Guide. TV Guide's contains some of the DVD's behind-the-scenes features, a trailer for Season 2, a song by Drive Shaft and photos from the set.

Best Buy has:

Bonus disc features:

* 43-minute "Lost Journey" episode
* "Flashbacks & Mythology" — a new minidocumentary that explores the stories and storytelling methods of the show
* "Lost: On Location" — two additional behind-the-scenes featurettes
* "White Rabbit"
* "The Moth"

So, if I'm not mistaken there are 3 other Lost special discs. From Best Buy, TV Guide and the one that is coming with the Lost Companion book (coming Sept. 28).

[Pavan]

Yeah, I believe so.

[skiphop]

Just got the box set, backed it up on my PSP (used this: www.psptransfer.com), it's been my ultimate boredom cure lately! Plus I'm picking up on all sorts of hints that I missed when the episodes originally aired. It's neat to see how far back they set up the plot points being developed this season.

[AnaheimPMWitch]

thats how I feel and I didnt see it from the beginning so actaully seeing the eps I missed is helping me understand the characters more

[Janice]

I rented the first two DVDs yesterday. My husband and I watched eight episodes. We were up until 3am, lol.

This show is great! Very exciting and suspenseful. I don't regret missing it on tv. I like it better this way. The only problem is that we'll blast through the first season this week....then have to wait forever for Season Two.

I can't read too much off this board either for fear of spoilers.
