lost_dvd.jpg Warning: This article reveals the contents of the third season of Lost.

Season Three of ABC's Lost does not disappoint; watch as the drama, mystery, and romance are taken to new heights on DVD.

The third season takes the viewer from the cages of the Others to a radio tower on top of the island...from desperation to hope of survival. The season also features the show's first flash-forward, revealing that our heroes do in fact eventually make it off the island.

Season three steps up the drama as we learn more about each character's previous lives, and hope and despair culminate in new ways. Our friends from Oceanic flight 815 become more complicated and more real, and the notorious Others get even more manipulative.

While some things become clearer: there are actually two islands rather than one, the Others have a submarine with which they can travel to the outside world, they have been jamming transmissions off the island, and the group does eventually escape the island, new puzzles arise in their place—Desmond now receives flashes of the future, there may be a boat 80 miles offshore, Ben might not actually be the leader...

Romance plays no small role in the third season either; even though Jack sees Kate and Sawyer together and manages to move on with Juliet, both he and Sawyer seem to harbor affection for Kate. And we can't forget that magical "I love you" that leaves us desperate for the next season.

If you haven't seen Lost, don't worry. It's simple really:

Plane crashes on island. Two groups of people survive. Both experience weird things happening in the jungle. One group finds a hatch and must push a button in the hatch every 108 minutes. Failing to push this button may end the world. Other people on island aren't nice. Communication with world fails. People die. People who are dead often aren't actually dead. Nothing is ever certain. Make sense? If not, do not fear. The drama, romance, and mystery play out in such a way that you will get it, even if you don't right now. And it's oh-so-worth-it when you do.

This DVD set includes commentary, behind-the-scenes video, previously unreleased scenes, and much more.

This Reviewer's Rating: 4 / 5

MTV has their own little campaign going on for college students right now. They gave 100 Flip camcorders to 100 college students around the country and told them to get inspired and surprise us with some video footage of their own design. Different themes guided them, some were open-ended, others were scavenger hunts and others were questions only they could answer. Read More
