LOST: The Opening 4 Minutes of Season 6 Corey, January 29, 2010January 31, 2010 ABC’s LOST is premiering its 6th and final season on February 2nd, 2010 at 8/7c and after the amazing cliff hanger of season 5, LOST fans have taken to the Internet to speculate what is happening, discuss previous seasons and episodes, and to argue over what will happen in season six – trust me, I know.

He was actually the person that got me hooked onto the show and probably loves the show more than I do. I don’t know how he stands on spoilers, but I have a feeling he’d kill me if I gave away what was in the video you’re about to see… (Update: This is the official video from Lost’s YouTube Channel) Viral Marketing 6fourLOSTminutesseason
