Not only because of the writer's strike, but also because the producers realized that the show wasn't moving at a good enough pace. They lost quite a few viewers during Season 3 when it encountered quite a few episodes that were slow paced, and revealed little. Sometime during the airing of Season 3, the producers and writers set an end encontro, data for Lost, an unheard of action in the televisão industry. The end encontro, data is set for the end of Season 6, 2009-2010, and which is also the seguinte season coming up. This end encontro, data was set because the crew noticed that they were losing viewers, and it would be difficult to keep this complex show going without a an end in sight. Now that they have an end encontro, data and the rest of the show mapped out, the show has been given shorter seasons, starting in December/January and ending sometime in May of each year, starting with Season 4. It originally had seasons starting in September of each year. The original plan was to air 16 episodes each season, but due to the writer's strike, 14 were aired in Season 4, and 17 will air in Seasons 5 and 6, making for a total of 48 episodes. This plan has kept the show moving at a brilliant pace that can be followed por fans, and also keeps the story interesting and engaging. As producer Lindelof stated, they are no longer stalling. They have an end in sight, and that is why there is a longer break between their seasons.
