On the weight loss thing - that backstage video diary thing that was on The Insider had Kate (EL?) talking about that. She said the actors all discussed that if they tried anything like that, they would be sure to go only as far as they felt safe, health-wise. She said that for herself, there wasn't much margin that she was willing to cut into. It sounded like there wasn't anything contractually requiring any weight-loss.
Mal: How drunk was I last night? Jayne: Well I dunno. I passed out.

Lost: OMGWTF POLAR BEAR
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)

Well, at least she's honest! (She's right, she's already so skinny she's got nowhere to go but anorexia.)
Dang it, cleo's recap spoiled me for Veronica Mars! I am on tape delay - or in this case TiVo delay. I wrote a comment asking her not to spoil current VM eps, or at least put it in white[font] or something.
ETA forgot to mention the ENORMOUS SHOUT OUT to my boyfriend in this ep - Locke is from Tustin, CA - same place as my BF! We were like 'OMG, Tustin'!

All is well that ends in pizza.
I half expect Ethan to fall over, injured, with Walt holding a knife.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
I lived in Tustin for a year when I was a kid. Strikes me as the perfect place for someone like Locke, trapped in a cubicle. It was all very cookie-cutter.

Can they bring Tim in as a guest-writer to wield his shiny scythe, as long as he doesn't kill the characters I like?
Um, you know if it's Tim, he's gonna kill the characters you DO like, so you might want to re-think that. Also, misdirects proven not to work with Tim. He's a smart one, that Doyle killer.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
No, Tim will make you like Boone or Larry, and then poof! So anyone you like now might be safe.
Might.

Yeah, my boyfriend hated it. It's like the boring part of OC, right?

I wonder if Scott and Steve are going to turn out to be a gay couple...
I sincerely hope not, as they seem to be identical twins...

Really? I hadn't looked closely.
I withdraw my speculation.

[insert something funny here]
So... Having watched the rather wonderful 2 "hour" pilot of Lost over the summer, it occurred to me the other day that it was absolutely disgraceful that I'd been letting the outside world interfere with my regular enjoyment of the series....
Deciding to put this right... I just sat down and watched the first ten episodes straight through.... Re-lived my very own OMGWTF POLAR BEAR!!!???!!! moment from ep 2 (interesting how they split the first two eps for broadcast - I felt the pilot worked better running straight through), and sat enthralled as the story continued, to the point that I am totally ready for the next ten... Damn having to wait.
I now have rectangular eyes and its 7:30am here, but hey - this definitely one hell of a TV show!
Now I must sleep. But plan to read up on the thread tomorrow and maybe even post some speculation... for now all I can think of is... That Kate is kinda cute.... and I have a horrible feeling that the mysterious "Ethan" will of course die before anyone finds out 'where' he came from....
