Pues si estás tan impaciente como yo, ya tienes la solución: un reloj que va contando los días y horas que faltan para el primer episodio de la quinta temporada (que, por lo visto, ya tiene título y todo).

En concreto, faltan (si pones el cursor sobre el reloj, sale un spoiler. Advertido estás):

Durante la pasada Comic-Con, como es ya normal, se presentó otro vídeo de la Iniciativa Dharma. En el vídeo vemos al doctor Candle, que revela su verdadero nombre, enviando un mensaje al futuro solicitando la reactivación de la Iniciativa Dharma. Se oye el llanto de un niño y se oye hablar al cámara (que podría ser un personaje que ya ha salido en la serie).

Y recomiendo la entrada Hints from Comic-Con donde se analiza el vídeo y se elucubra sobre lo que podría significar para la quinta temporada de Lost. Pero no hay que olvidar un detalle: el año pasado se vio un vídeo similar que luego apareció en la serie de una forma mucho más pulida y diferente.

But stories are more interesting when they can manipulate the mode, break into new territory and redefine previously understood ideas. The Oceanic 6 have certainly returned home, but they’re not quite the O6. They’re more like the O62, and they couldn’t tell the homefolk what they’ve been through even if they wanted to. (Who would believe them, and how would they explain the lack of an island?) In most monomythic stories, the person returns somewhat more than she or he was before leaving; the O62 are both more and less, in some ways exaggerations of their strengths and weaknesses. What’s more, those strengths and weaknesses seem to be the reverse of what they were on the island: Sayid, the man who walked away from torture, is now Ben’s hired assassin. Jack, the social leader and healer, is verging on a heavy case of delirium tremens and can barely manage himself, let alone a scalpel. Hurley (with the help of Libby) went from finding an inner strength and confidence in his own mental stability to playing chess with dead Nigerian warlords in the Santa Rosa mental hospital. Sun has gone from a near-shrinking violet who was looking for a back door out of her marriage to a corporate titan living for the memory of her husband. Kate, always on the run and making just the wrong choice at the right time, has become a pillar of stability in her role as surrogate mother. Ben has gone from a kind of island shaman-king to a permanent state of exile, stuck in a cycle of vengeance and samsara out in his own private Land of Nod. We don’t yet know about Desmond or Lapidus, but we do know something about another islander, Locke. The news isn’t good.

Atención, contiene spoiler de la cuarta temporada de Lost.
