There are two versions of every LOST season finale. The first is an 'original' cut that plays as one single double-length episode. This is the version that originally aired on TV. A second version, likely created for TV reruns, has cuts and edits made to create two separate, ‘normal length’ episodes. These changes include the removal of footage, ranging from just a few frames or shots
to deleted lines of dialogue or even full scenes.
All DVD releases of LOST outside of Region 1, as well as most streaming services, only offer the second, shortened versions of the season finales. This means that there is roughly 10 minutes worth of LOST content that many fans might have never seen... This video is here to set things right. Here follows a compilation of all of the removed footage - once lost, but now... well, here!
Many thanks to users mmayor114 and Mister_reindeer on Reddit for their hard work identifying all of the changes. Check out their posts (listing a lot more than just removed scenes!) here:
