Lost has topped a list of the top 10 most pirated US television series for 2010.

Episodes of the ABC drama, which ended its run in May, were illegally downloaded almost 6 million times this year, according to TorrentFreak. The figure is a slight dip from 2009 figures, which also saw Lost top the list.

Axed NBC series Heroes came in second with around 5.48m downloads, up on the show's estimated television viewership of 5.3m. Showtime drama Dexter was third in the list, with 3.88m downloads again topping the show's estimated viewing figures of 2.54m.

Other shows that made the top ten include Fox's House and 24, which placed fifth and seventh respectively. Fox was the worst hit network overall, with Glee and Family Guy also charting.

Surprised South Park isn't up there, people are always trying to download that show considering the amount of sites there are that are made for downloading South Park Seasons.. of course none of them ever work.

Pretty sure this is torrents only, Patrick, so those wouldn't count anyway
