Lost pulled over 2 million viewers on CTV Sunday night, not bad after the Canadian rights holder treated it like a buried hatch for six years. You had to be a fan to find Lost on CTV, which over the years was jammed into a 7 p.m. slot, bounced over to sister station /A and just generally made tough to find. The two-and-a-half hour series finale drew 13.5 million on ABC according to preliminary Nielsen data.
Global drew 1.23 million opposite Lost Sunday with the finale of The Celebrity Apprentice. CBC, stuck with an afternoon Stanley Cup playoff game thanks to the NHL catering to its U.S. broadcaster, saw just 1,257,000 tune in for the Blackhawks-Sharks tilt Sunday. Saturday afternoon, CBC pulled 2,135,000 viewers for the Canadiens second last loss to the Flyers; a further 1,842,000 caught the game on RDS. Friday’s episode of The Bridge on CTV drew its usual 880,000 according to overnight estimates.

That’s a pretty big LOST audience for a country with just over 30 million people.
