    I've noticed there's no topic where we can discuss the show without spoilers while watching it on RTE. Perhaps we can do it in here if there's not.

    Yeah they did, and having not watched Lost since midway through season three it was fecking mental. I have absolutely no idea what I just watched but I think I liked it.

    Wrecked my housemate's head with question but still none the wiser.

    That's because of Sky. :(

    Do we really need a thread for Irish eps now that they are only not even 2 days behind the US.

    Someone explain that one to me. Why does the Irish state broadcaster have to wait for a British channel to finish showing it? I thought RTE Player is only available to Irish people? :confused:

    Because RTÉ don't pay $1,000,000 per episode.

    I don't understand. Are you saying it's because Sky don't want Irish people accessing it on RTE Player? Why would they care?

    Look at what happened with 24 sky blew RTE out of the market. All of a sudden RTE are looking at 24 3 months after Sky. Sky know that their Irish audience base is very important. Unlike in the UK Sky aren't the only ones with exclusive rights to major US shows like lost and 24.

    I didn't realise they looked upon the Irish market as significant. I figured they were only interested in their UK ratings.

    Not ratings but $ubscriptions.
