Singapore/London/Hong Kong – The Walt Disney Company today announced the season finale of ‘Lost’ will be made available to viewers between 24 to 48 hours after the U.S. broadcast.

In total, 59 countries (including only two in the Asia Pacific region) will air the two-and-a-half-hour final episode with subtitles for viewers in non-English speaking territories. SingTel will be airing the finale in Singapore via its premium video on demand service mio TV Season Pass. In Australia, the final episode will air on Channel 7 and 7TWO. The series is licensed as part of their existing ‘Hot from the US’ agreements with Disney Media Distribution, which bring series such as ‘Lost,’ ‘Desperate Housewives’ and ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ to international platforms in a 24-48 hour window from US broadcast. Tim Carmichael, VP of mio TV. “Fans of the series will be anxious to see which secrets of the island are finally revealed. With mio TV they have the ability to watch the finale at a time that suits them and to pause and rewind at their convenience.
