Special Edition
What is the difference between a ‘special edition directors cut’ DVD and the original?

I am thinking about buying LOST season box set, what is the special edition directors cut? Is it recommended. I have seen all seasons throughout the time they were broadcast, so i know the storyline, but i wanted to own them because i love the show. Is it a good buy? if its special edition directors cut, are the original episodes shown or are they shortened, altered etc? any help would be greatly appreciated?

A director’s cut is a specially edited version of a film, and less often TV series, music video, commercials, comic book or video games, that is supposed to represent the director’s own approved edit. ‘Cut’ explicitly refers to the process of film editing: the director’s cut is preceded by the rough editor’s cut and followed by the final cut meant for the public film release.
Director’s cuts generally remain unreleased to the public because, as far as film is concerned, with most film studios the director does not have a final cut privilege. The studio (whose investment is at risk) can insist on changes that they feel will make the film more likely to succeed at the box office. This sometimes means a happier ending or less ambiguity, but more often means that the film is simply shortened to provide more screenings per day. The most common form of director’s cut is therefore to have extra scenes added, often making the “new” film considerably longer than the “original”.
