Shannon Returns!

Monday, August 28th, 2006

The producers [of Lost] have been deluged with calls and emails from irate viewers after [Shannon] Rutherford joined the lengthy body count in the second series, which is halfway through its run. But nothing in Lost is quite what it seems - the show is told through a series of flashbacks, and she is due to make her next appearance in a scene about another character’s past.

Buy Lost Season Two DVD Today! Sort-Of

Sunday, August 27th, 2006

I was at another website this morning and saw this heading:

“Buy Lost Season Two DVD Today!”

I looked over at my boyfriend and I said, “What! I guess we need to go to (name of discount chain omitted because I shamefully go there only because they are the cheapest, but I don’t want to give them any free advertising).” Then I started questioning this. I had September for sure in my mind and what kind of Lost fanatic forgets the release date of Season 2?

“Maybe it’s one of those pre-sales,” Scott said.

Of course it was. Silly how I question my Lost knowledge.

Moral of the story is that Lost Season Two will be out on DVD on September 5th just like I thought.  *Insert me crossing my arms in juvenile defiance*

Evangeline Lilly is a Genius!

Friday, August 25th, 2006

Not that I think Paris Hilton deserves any more press than she already gets … AND.. you might ask WHAT she has to do with Lost? Check out this interview with Evangeline Lilly. I like her even more now.

Lost beauty Evangeline Lilly has blasted socialite Paris Hilton and her party girl pals for living a selfish existence. The Canadian actress tries to spend as much time away from Tinseltown as possible and prefers to spend her free time relaxing in Hawaii or doing charity work.

She says, “(I need to help people or I’d be) no better than the Paris Hiltons of the world, waltzing around with their Louis Vuitton bags and their little dogs. Those people couldn’t give a rat’s a*s if somebody was starving in the street next to them.”

ABC Official Press Release - Season 3

Thursday, August 24th, 2006

Source: ABC Medianet

Jack, Kate and Sawyer open the season in captivity as prisoners of “The Others.” Just who these “Others” are and what they want are primary questions Season Three will explore. Michael Emerson joins the regular cast in his ongoing role as Henry Gale, leader of “The Others.” Romance looms on the horizon as Jack’s interests veer towards a mysterious new woman, whose motives may be questionable. Sun and Jin will continue to celebrate their pregnancy - but is the child really Jin’s? Locke and Sayid will band together with some of the other survivors and journey across the island in an attempt to free Jack, Kate and Sawyer. Charlie will attempt to return into the good graces of Claire and her baby, Aaron, but can he be trusted to stay clean and sober? The fates of Locke, Desmond and Mr. Eko in the aftermath of the implosion of the hatch are answered. Will Penny Widmore find the island and her long, lost love, Desmond, and can the survivors find a way to interact with the outside world?

The band of friends, family, enemies and strangers must continue to work together against the cruel weather and harsh terrain if they want to stay alive. But as they have discovered during their 60-plus days on the island, danger and mystery loom behind every corner, and those they thought could be trusted may turn against them. Even heroes have secrets.

Spoilers For Season 3

Wednesday, August 23rd, 2006

Some BIG spoilers here (if you want to believe them).  Here is something from the information that I don’t think will spoil the surprises of next season for anyone, but to get some juicy gossip, check out my spoiler page.

Jack, Kate and Sawyer find themselves being held captive in prison cells that remind them of their lives off the island.  Creepy.  Insiders say this is very reminiscent of the television show “The Prisoner”.

Jack Flashback(?) Photo

Monday, August 21st, 2006

Check out this picture that was taken during a recent filming of Lost:

lost_jack_flashback_pix.jpg

It appears that Jack is performing the Heimlich on a child at the playground. The question on hand is why we are seeing Jack in a flashback when he doesn’t have a flashback episode scheduled to be filmed currently. Is he going to show up in someone else’s flashback?

There is also talk that Jack is leaving the show so he is filming his scenes now to fulfill his obligation. I hope the later is not true!

Bad Twin- Chapter 1

Saturday, August 19th, 2006

Click here to read Chapter One of Bad Twin for free. Has anyone out there read the whole book?

As a reminder, this is the book written by author Gary Troup. The novel is said to have been delivered to the publisher just days before he boarded Oceanic Flight 815.

New Cast Members

Friday, August 18th, 2006

I was thinking how cool it would be, and a great plot twist, if the new cast members were not Others. I would like to see them come into the story as tailies that had been taken by the Others but managed to escape. The viewers would be like “are they really survivors or are they Others?” They could hold the key to helping Sayid and the gang find Jack, Kate and Sawyer. If they escaped, they could lead the other survivors back to the Others hideout.

Purely speculation.

Final new cast member is revealed

Wednesday, August 16th, 2006

The producers said that two females and a male would be cast for Season 3 and now we know who the second female will be.  Actress Kiele Sanchez has been signed to the cast.  I don’t know her or any of her work, which might be really a plus so that there are no typecasts put on her for the show.

You can read more about her here.  Again, there are no confirmations as to how she will fit into the story.  We can assume she will be an Other, but it’s hard to assume we know anything before it airs!  The only nugget of information given is that her character’s name will be Nikki.
