Like pretty much everybody else who watches the show, I was getting pretty sick of it a year ago. And as it turns out, so were the guys who were making it! Damon Lindelof tells the New York Times that when they set a 2010 end date, it reinvigorated the show:

"It was nothing less than the difference between not wanting to do it anymore and being thrilled to do it to the very end. It had become such an arduous task: how can we start working toward any of the things we've been doing for the last three years if we don’t know when we get to do them?"

They decided to push ABC for an end date after Stephen King encouraged them to do so in his Entertainment Weekly column. Thanks, Steve.

Less than 8 hours until the liveblog! Are you getting excited? Hm. Well, then, keep it to yourself.
