Lost Is Ending!

Don't worry... it's not being cancelled. They've just announced that ABC and the producers of the show are sitting down to set a final date for the show. I've read in the past that there would probably be 5 seasons total, which would be great. We're already halfway into the 3rd and we could see a definite ending instead of having it just lurch on past the point where it gets boring (I'm looking at you, X-Files and Millenium!)

Here's the quote:
The date will set a limit to the number of "Lost" seasons to come and will be announced to fans. The show's producers, speaking at ABC's Television Critics Association press tour session, said having a conclusion date will bolster fan confidence in the series' narrative. A timeline for making the decision was not announced.

"It's time for us now to find an endpoint for the show," said executive producer Carlton Cuse. "JK Rowling announced there were seven books in the Harry Potter series and it gives fans [a framework for understanding the arc of the show]. 'The X-Files' was a cautionary tale for us. It was a great show that ran two seasons too long. 'Lost' has a short-half life."
