did you see the State of the Union Address is set for Feb 2nd??

President Barack Obama's State of the Union address is scheduled to replace the 2-hour Lost premiere on ABC. The final season of Lost, which has long been advertised by ABC to be scheduled for February 2nd, is being threatened by the White House's uncertainty as to whether the State of the Union address should be aired on January 26th (when American Idol airs) or February 2nd.

Lost fans are already in uproar; some have launched a campaign on Twitter tagged #NoStateofUnionFeb2.

Would you rather watch the State of the Union address or the premiere of Lost?

I saw this yesterday. There's a facebook group too. I'm sure ABC will move it. They won't let us miss the premiere of the last season (or they better not).
 
You know why right..b/c last year they ran it against American Idol and Fox just chose not to air the president and no one watched him. so now he's all wanting to force ABC to air him...
 
I just heard about this last night!!!! I will be so crushed if I have to miss LOST. lol, I don't want it pushed back any further either! Surely, abc wouldn't let us miss it would they? They'd have a lot of POed people on their hands! :)
 
WOW! I can't lie and say that this doesn't make me a little sad... It is sad that the President of the United States has to compete with American Idol or Lost :thumbdown: Really?
 
I have to say, while I have NO interest in state of the union addresses, and have always been angry when they interrupt something I want to watch (so I feel your pain), I never thought I would see the day where anyone cared if it was interfering with what the public wanted! You have to be a little impressed by that! :p
 
Remember when we were kids though (those of us old enough to remember) and there were only like 3 channels and how much you hated the president being on..I can remember my sister and me wailing "oh nooooo, the president's oonnn!!" lol

Hey maybe they'll bump it up a day or a week and we can thank Mr. Obama :)

ABC had said it'd likely start Feb 9th instead so it'd
move back a week.

I don't think it's a huge deal other than that I'd rather they preempt American Idol since it would still be in the audition stage anyway.
 
Why does the State of the Union HAVE to be on a Tuesday, and why only those 2 Tuesdays? Can't it be on some other weekday? Ugh. I dunno if the Canadian site that airs Lost will show it if ABC doesn't.

I would guess not. I think ABC would officially move the premiere date for the show instead.
 
I can see where this would infuriate ABC and the producers of LOST though..I mean they have been promoting the premier and that date for months now...and it's a big deal (to us LOST fans) being the last season and all.
 
NO!!!! LOL I don't wanna wait one more week for Lost. I am selfish like that. We have waited MONTHS for Lost. AI is on all the time and I see more of the Pres than I personally care to see.
