We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Lost 2: Tied to a Tree in a Jungle of Mystery  

[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.

ABC is saying that LOST Season 6 premiere episode “LA X” will screen at the (Oahu) Sunset On The Beach big screen on January 30th, ahead of the Groundhog Day network premiere. It may only be the first hour of the premiere.

Perhaps. There's a scheduling problem: President Obama's State of the Union speech was originally set for Jan. 26, but there's now talk of moving it to Feb. 2, which would conflict with the Lost network premiere. [link]

[link] This is fun, it includes all the other shows that have posed their casts similarly: BSG, The Sopranos, South Park, MASH.

Executive producers Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof, give The Hollywood Reporter an interview - [link]

My favorite part:

Cuse: I think the one thing that's pretty certain is neither of us have a great [urge] to do something [after Lost] that's this dense, sprawling and serialized. You need to exercise different creative muscles.

Lindelof: My hope is to rip off other successful shows.

THR: Like you've been ripped off?

Lindelof: Exactly. Maybe a show about vampires that work in an ad agency and one is a serial killer.

Cuse: Especially if the lead character is also cooking meth.

Lindelof: Oh, I hadn't thought of that. Almost guaranteed an Emmy. "Breaking Bad Men."

Ha!

I can't believe I am looking forward to watching Lost again. And yet I am. I just have to see what they do with it.

Lost Supper stuff was fun.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Re-watching Lost from the beginning, at this point, is turning out to be a fascinating experience. Tiny speculation: I think they've already given us the 'how' of the entire show, with the ending of season five; the final season will be about the 'why'. Sort of. I think. Man, do I hope they close all the plot loopholes and don't leave any loose ends hanging.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Some of those loopholes will be left hanging. They have said as much. I've resigned myself to the fact that I'm not going to get all the answers that I want and the answers I do get may not be satisfactory.

I've been a little dismayed with all the articles about "Lost" I've read that focuses on how important the CHARACTERS are when apparently I am one of the few who cares about plot. If they cared that much about characters, they wouldn't have been so inconsistent: they eviscerated Kate, fucked up Jack and made him do really questionable things for no reason, and killed off people who were really interesting.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

I've resigned myself to the fact that I'm not going to get all the answers that I want and the answers I do get may not be satisfactory.

I'm not expecting that the plot will be resolved solely to make me happy (I didn't stop watching BtVS when Tara was killed off), but they surely realise that their viewers will expect it to make at least some kind of sense. A poorly written/plotted ending to a show that has so much plot potential would be unbelievably frustrating. As with the end of Heroes season one, but so much worse.
