Lost is gearing up for its series finale in a couple of weeks, with a two-part episode aptly titled The End Part 1 and The End Part 2, which will air on Tuesday, May 23. The Hollywood Reporter's The Live Feed caught up with co-creator/executive producer Damon Lindelof, who revealed some interesting tidbits about the finale, explaining that the season's "flash-sideways" device will be explained.

"We knew the new storytelling device would be controversial," Lindelof said. "We started showing people this thing, and people don't know what it is. They don't know how it connects back in the show. We're throwing this huge mystery into a show that already has a bunch of mysteries at a time when the audience expects us to be closing doors and not opening them."
