Chaos reigns in Los Angeles after a mysterious event causes everyone in the world to lose consciousness at exactly the same moment. Was it an act of nature?

Beginning with “Destination: LOST,” the six recap specials will air commercial-free on The 101 Network for the first time since they were originally presented on ABC. The specials examine the stories of the survivors of Oceanic 815 and explore the mythology that has made “Lost” one of the most compelling series of the decade.
Each of the recap specials, which previously aired before the series’ season premieres and finales, will feature exclusive interstitial elements such as DVD extras not previously seen on television, including behind-the-scenes footage and unaired scenes, as well as music videos that were created with the show. The airing of the specials is the first significant promotional partnership between ABC and DIRECTV’s The 101 Network. The culmination of The 101 Network’s “Lost” event on February 2 will directly lead into the premiere of the sixth and final season of the series on Tuesday, February 2 at 9:00 p.m., ET on the ABC Television Network.

ANAHEIM, Calif. (Dec. 18, 2009) — President Abraham Lincoln returns to the Main Street Opera House in Disneyland with stunning new Audio-Animatronics technology that makes this the most lifelike and expressive Lincoln figure yet.
Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln, a beloved Disneyland attraction for nearly 45 years and a historic landmark in the development of Audio-Animatronics technology, reopens Dec. 18 on Main Street, U.S.A. with the new Lincoln figure and an enriched presentation that combines the best elements of the park’s original 1965 show and the most advanced technical enhancements. (The show first opened at the 1964 New York World’s Fair.)
The new Abraham Lincoln figure represents several major milestones for Audio-Animatronics figures. The fully electric head – a first for human Disney Audio-Animatronics figures, which are traditionally hydraulically operated – is based on an all-new sculpt that is more lifelike than in previous versions of the show. With an expanded range of facial movement, Lincoln is more expressive than ever. He can purse his lips, form an “O” with his lips, smile, grimace and use his eyebrows to enhance his emotions.

With the product removed completely from the products list and the help section listing the product as being discontinued, it doesn’t appear as though the PhotoMovie is destined to return any time soon.
