The third season of the American serial drama television series Lost commenced airing in the United States and Canada on October 4, 2006 and concluded on May 23, 2007. The third season continues the stories of a group of over forty people who have been stranded on a remote island in the South Pacific, after their airplane crashed sixty-eight days prior to the beginning of the season.[1] In the Lost universe, the season takes place from November 28 to December 23, 2004. The producers have stated that as the first season is about introducing the survivors and the second season is about the hatch, the third season is about the Others, a group of mysterious island inhabitants.[2]

In response to fan complaints about scheduling in the previous seasons, the episodes originally aired in two blocks without reruns.[3] In the United States, the first block consisted of six episodes aired on Wednesdays at 9:00 pm and after a twelve week break, the season continued with the remaining sixteen episodes at 10:00.[4] In addition, three clip-shows recapped previous events on the show. "Lost: A Tale of Survival" aired a week before the premiere, "Lost Survivor Guide" aired before the second block[5] and "Lost: The Answers" aired before the finale.[6] Buena Vista Home Entertainment released the season under the title Lost: The Complete Third Season – The Unexplored Experience on December 11, 2007 in Region 1.[7] It is available as a seven-disc boxed DVD set and as a six-disc Blu-ray Disc set.[8]

Contents

Crew

The season was produced by Touchstone Television (now ABC Studios), Bad Robot Productions and Grass Skirt Productions and was aired on the American Broadcasting Company network in the United States of America. The executive producers for the third season were co-creator J.J. Abrams, co-creator Damon Lindelof, Bryan Burk, Jack Bender, Jeff Pinkner and Carlton Cuse.[9] The staff writers were Lindelof, Cuse, Pinkner, co-executive producers Edward Kitsis & Adam Horowitz, co-executive producer Drew Goddard, supervising producer Elizabeth Sarnoff, story editor Christina M. Kim and executive story editor Brian K. Vaughan.[10] The regular directors were Bender, supervising producer Stephen Williams, Paul Edwards and Eric Laneuville. Lindelof and Cuse served as the show runners.[11]

Cast

The season featured sixteen major roles with star billing, making it the second largest ensemble cast of the 2006–2007 television season, behind ABC's Desperate Housewives. Characters are briefly summarized and ordered by billing and number of third season appearances.

Evangeline Lilly stars as fugitive Kate Austen, who is unsure whether she loves Jack or Sawyer more.[12] Matthew Fox stars as doctor Jack Shephard, the leader of the castaways.[13] Josh Holloway portrays the sardonic con-man James "Sawyer" Ford. Elizabeth Mitchell joined the cast as Juliet Burke, an Other trying to escape the island.[14] Henry Ian Cusick was promoted to the main cast,[15] playing Desmond Hume, a man with a supernatural ability to see "flashes" from the future, who foresees Dominic Monaghan's character Charlie Pace's death. Naveen Andrews acts as Sayid Jarrah, a former Iraqi Republican Guard.[16] Second season guest star Michael Emerson was promoted to the main cast as Ben "Henry Gale" Linus, a high-ranking manipulative Other.[17] Jorge Garcia's character Hurley Reyes continued to serve as the show's comic relief.[18] Daniel Dae Kim plays non-English speaking Jin Kwon, the son of a fisherman, with Yunjin Kim as Jin's English-speaking pregnant wife Sun.[19] Terry O'Quinn plays John Locke, an alienated survivor with a deep connection to the island.[20] Emilie de Ravin portrays single new mother Claire Littleton.[21] Rodrigo Santoro and Kiele Sanchez also joined as previously unseen crash survivors Paulo and Nikki Fernandez. Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje returns as Mr. Eko.[22]

The third season featured numerous recurring guest stars. M. C. Gainey plays the Other Tom.[23] Tania Raymonde plays Alex, while Mira Furlan plays her mother Danielle Rousseau, who meets Alex for the first time since she was born.[24]

Andrew Divoff acts as the eye-patched Other Mikhail Bakunin and Nestor Carbonell acts as the ageless Other Richard Alpert. Marsha Thomason's character Naomi Dorrit parachutes onto the island.[25] Blake Bashoff plays Alex's boyfriend Karl. Michael Bowen portrays the vengeful Other Pickett and William Mapother portrays the late Other, Ethan Rom. Sonya Walger plays Desmond's off-island girlfriend Penny Widmore. L. Scott Caldwell and Sam Anderson briefly return as Flight 815 married couple Rose Henderson and Bernard Nadler.

Special guest stars are actors and actresses who were once given star billing, but due to a character's death or escape from the island, now appear on occasion. First season main cast member Ian Somerhalder reprised his role in hallucinations and flashbacks as Boone Carlyle, as did his stepsister Shannon Rutherford, played by Maggie Grace.[26] Malcolm David Kelley returned for a single scene as ten-year old Walt Lloyd.[27]

Reception

The first block of episodes was criticized for raising too many mysteries[28] and not providing enough answers.[29] Complaints were also made about the limited screen-time for many of the main characters in the first block.[30] Locke, played by Terry O'Quinn, who had tied for the highest second season episode count, appeared in only thirteen of twenty-two episodes in the third season – only two more than guest star M.C. Gainey, who played Tom. Reaction to two new characters, Nikki and Paulo, was generally negative, with Lindelof even acknowledging that the couple was "universally despised" by fans.[31] The decision to split the season[32] and the American timeslot switch after the hiatus were also criticized.[33] Cuse acknowledged that "No one was happy with the six-episode run."[34] The second block of episodes was critically acclaimed however,[35] with the crew dealing with problems from the first block.[36] More answers were written into the show[37] and Nikki and Paulo were killed off.[38] It was also announced that the series would end three seasons after the third season,[39] which Cuse hoped would tell the audience that the writers knew where the story was going.[40]

The third season was nominated for six Primetime Emmy Awards, including nominations for directing, writing, single camera picture editing and sound editing.[41] O'Quinn won the third season's only Emmy Award for acting in a supporting role.[42] The eighth episode was nominated for a Writers Guild of America Award in the "Episodic Drama" category.[43] The producers were nominated for a Producers Guild Award in the "TV Drama" category.[44] Lost's stunt team was nominated for the season's only Screen Actors Guild Award.[45] Lost's third season also received a Television Critics Association nomination in the drama category.[46] The season was not nominated for a Golden Globe Award[47] and has two Directors Guild Award nominations.[48] The season averaged 13.74 million American viewers per episode, ranking seventeenth in viewership and ninth in the key adults 18–49 demographic.[49] The first block had an average close to four million more viewers than the second block,[50] with the fourteenth episode meeting a ratings low for the series,[51] with 11.52 million viewers.[52] However, Lost was the most recorded program of 2007.[53]
