Status: While the same-day viewing numbers for this show were soft in its first season, the show did very well in delayed and digital viewing and it drew plenty of attention during awards season.  Series creator Damon Lindelof has said that “there are no current plans to make” to make a second season, but he doesn’t want to “close the door completely” on a continuation.  I am counting it as ended for now, but it is possible a second season could happen down the road.
