Jorge Garcia announced on his blog that he cut off his curly locks and shared a picture with us. I am wondering if it was for the show or he just wanted a change. If it was for Lost, I can't wait to see why he needed a new look.
Michael Ausiello is reporting that if the strike goes until next year ABC might postpone season 4 of Lost until possibly 2009. They currently have 8 shows in the can, and Carlton Cuse (Lost creator) told Michael Ausiello how he feels about only having 8 of the episodes airing this season.
"Damon [Lindelof] and my concern about running the [eight] episodes we will have made is that it will feel a little like reading half a Harry Potter novel, then having to put it down. There is a mini-cliff-hanger at the end of Episode 8, but it's like the end of an exciting book chapter; it's not the end of the novel. Damon and I didn't write [the ending of Episode 8] differently [with the looming strike in mind]. We wrote it to be the ending of Episode 8." In any case, he concedes that the decision to hold or air the episodes isn't ultimately theirs. "It's really [ABC honcho Steve MacPherson's] call," Cuse notes, adding, "No one was happy with the six-episode run last season."
I don't know about you, but I would rather get 8 episodes in 2008 then wait to 2009 for the other 10. I am not sure I will care or be back for Lost if I have to have waited 30 months for a new episode of Lost.
Entertainment Tonight is reporting that Daniel Dae Kim was arrested this morning for DUI in Honolulu. As we all know a DUI arrest or any vehicular arrest means you will be killed off on Lost ie. Michelle Rodriguez, Cynthia Watros and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje. At leat this time it was an original cast member and not a tailie.
What is up with all these Lost actors getting arrested in Hawaii, seriously no other show has had many arrests as this one.
BTW how do you think they are going to kill of Jin? I mean there are already rumors that another person will die on the show, so why not think it is him…
I am so freaking excited for this episode! A bunch of the stars have been saying the ending of tonight’s season finale blew them away and left them speechless that is how good it is! So I am skipping American Idol to watch Lost instead because I don’t want to be spoiled! That and I really don’t care who wins American Idol.
It looks to be official that Lost will only have 48 more episodes over the next 3 seasons bringing the total to 119 episodes according to The Hollywood Reporter. Lost will air 16 uninterrupted episodes from February to May for the next 3 years. Executive Producer Damon Lindelof finds the end date, "incredibly liberating," he added, "Like we've been running a marathon and we actually know where the finish line is for the first time." Lindelof and co-EP Carlton Cuse have been working on "a road map for the series with all the major mythological milestones and the ending in place for a while. What we didn't know was how long we had to play the story out," Cuse said. "By defining the endpoint we can now really map out the rest of the series in confidence." Now the two and the writers have to plan out the rest of the show, "We sort of view 'Lost' as a mosaic," Cuse said. "Now there are only 48 more tiles that go into that mosaic, and we're figuring out, along with all the other writers, exactly where they all go."
It will be interesting to see if the show will still be able to do well when it comes back next February after being off the air for so long. And if does really bad in the ratings will ABC remain committed to all 48 episodes. I am still undecided how I feel about the show not coming back until next February, I am not sure I will be back for the final 48. Depends on what else is on.
