Jack and Locke watch the video.

Addicted to Lost is a video of clips of Lost set to Robert Palmer's song and video Addicted to Love that was originally featured by ABC as a one-minute promo during the Super Bowl following the 2005 NFL season. The video was later released as a full, 3-minute version. The promo is official, and endorsed by ABC, although it is considered a parody and therefore Non-Canon.

Selected highlights

• The video is cleverly edited;
  • It opens with a clip of Eko saying "I have something I think you should see".
  • It looks like Jack and Locke are watching the video as opposed to an Orientation Film.
  • The audio has been modified: instead of "addicted to love", Palmer now appears to sing "addicted to Lost".
  • There are numerous clever syncs within the video; audio of "you'd like to think that you're immune to the stuff" synced with clips of the quarantine notice on the station 3 hatch, as well as many others.
  • Jack asks Charlie, "How long since your last fix?"
  • It closes with a clip of Locke saying "We're going to need to watch that again".
