'Lost' was most pirated TV show of 2010 TorrentFreak has released their list of the most pirated TV shows for 2010, and the now-concluded mystery drama "Lost" topped the list.
At 6 million downloads, "Lost" beat out 2009's champion, "Heroes," which was downloaded 5.5 million times.

Rounding out the top 5 were "Dexter" at 4 million downloads, "The Big Bang Theory" at 3.9 million and "House" at 3.3 million.

The site also makes the interesting note that the most downloaded episodes of the shows actually exceeded average TV viewership, especially in shows like Dexter which air on premium channels.

Overall, downloads of the top five shows fell, year-over-year, notes the site.

The full list:

1. Lost
2. Heroes
3. Dexter
4. The Big Bang Theory
5. House
6. How I Met Your Mother
7. 24
8. True Blood
