On the lookout for a cold-hearted snake (look into his headshot)...
The casting news from Lost is coming fast and furious, even as the fourth season is well underway in terms of filming. The latest casting news comes from TV Guide, who reports: The show is on the hunt for Huston, a fortyish authority figure whose charming demeanor belies an ice-cold heart. The new character is also...

New casting news rings a "Bell"
More casting news from the Lost world: the latest addition to the cast is Zoe Bell, a relatively unknown actress whose biggest role to date was in Quentin Tarantino's latest film, Death Proof. You might better know her (if not her face) from stunt doubling for Uma Thurman in Tarantino's Kill Bill films. Many websites have...

Another bump in the road for a 'Lost' cast member
Oh, for crying out loud. At the rate this is going, I think the producers of Lost should buy bicycles for everyone in their casts and be done with it. Daniel Dae Kim, better know to you Lost fans as Jin, Sun's husband, has added his name to the ever-growing ranks of Lost cast members that...

Theory Thursday: Volume 2
So for the last week, I've been slowly building towards this week's edition of "Theory Thursdays." Each Thursday, I'll be examining one of the "big" Lost questions, or trying to pose one of my own. This week's edition falls into the latter category. Everything that follows is speculation, and based on as little actual fact as...

Smoke on (and over) the water
Today's entry seeks to bridge the gap between yesterday's entry and tomorrow's second edition of "Theory Thursdays." I want to further explore the sealed wall in the Swan, the "incident," and everyone's favorite monster, Smokey. The smoke monster is potentially one of those "won't get fully answered until Season 6" mysteries, up there with "What is...

"Hatch"-ing a theory for the Swan
In case you haven't noticed by now, I'm a bit of a Lost mythology freak. Sure, I cried along with many of you when a certain main character bit the dust at the end of Season 3 (actually, many of you might have actually cheered, come to think of it), but as we work together in...

What mysteries will Season 4 solve?
A show like Lost is not merely as good as the questions it poses, but in the answers it delivers. As I mentioned last week, having 48 final episodes gives the show ample time and structure in which to slowly answer the dozens (if not more) of lingering questions that it's posed during the first three...

Theory Thursday: Volume 1
It's no real secret that the show runners of Lost, Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, were more than a little peeved when spoilers concerning the game-changing Season 3 finale, "Through the Looking Glass", leaked out weeks before its airing. The duo essentially went radio silent, rendering themselves as out of touch as the Others after the...

Surf's up for 'Lost'
By now, you may already have heard the news: the future syndication of Lost has been announced. "Geek-centric cable networks Sci Fi and G4 have secured rerun rights to the ABC series, ensuring that "Lost" obsessives who have worn out their DVDs will have a place to watch the series beyond the show's projected 2010 end...

Seasons of change
Season 4, as you assuredly know by now, will last for 16 non-interrupted weeks. Season 5 and 6 will follow similar patterns. This schedule was borne out of three simultaneous desires: Lindelof and Cuse's desire to have a final, known endpoint for their narrative ABC's desire to milk the cash cow that is Lost for three,...

'Lost': The countdown to Season 4 starts
Hello, dear readers, and welcome to the first of many, and I do mean many, posts dedicated to your favorite show and mine, Lost. Over the next few months, I'll be looking at nearly every aspect of the show, from past episodes to casting notices to theories plausible, implausible, and "so out there even John Locke...
