There will be more Lost...well, at least a half hour more. It was announced on last night's Jimmy Kimmel Live that the 2-hour season finale of Lost, scheduled to air Sunday, May 23, from 9:00pm-11:00pm, will actually run a half-hour longer, until 11:30pm. The nightly local news will air at 11:30pm, followed by the Jimmy Kimmel Live: Aloha to Lost special, which will air at 12:05am. All tolled told, there will be five-and-a-half hours of Lost programming on May 23, as the finale will be preceded by a two-hour retrospective titled Lost: The Final Journey. As well, the original two-hour Pilot episode will air the previous night, May 22, as an "enhanced" episode, complete with Pop-Up Video-style facts. Clearly, the Powers That Be at ABC recognize the conclusion of Lost as a major television event, as they are going all out for those fans that have spent the last six years of our lives obsessing over the show. (Can you imagine being someone who saw the first season and then trying to jump into the finale? Talk about confused!)
If there is more news regarding the Lost finale weekend, we here at TVOvermind will have it. Namaste.

This is fantastic news! I can't wait, but at the same time I don't want it to get here…
"All Tolled" are you sure it isn't "All told"?
Although, I will admit "all told" is the much more common usage. :-)
Tolled does not mean "added up." It can mean to exact a fee OR to ring a bell, but it does not mean "added up" in any way. Look it up. "All told" is the much more common usage because it is the only usage.
“All tolled” as in “added up,” since I was talking about the number of hours. As opposed to “all told,” as in “everything said.”
I shall concede defeat. I improperly made a verb out of the noun “toll,” which can be a sum, according to the Collins Thesaurus of the English Language. I got my homophones messed up. Correction above. Thanks commenters.
