If you’ve got DirecTV somewhere, you can look forward to watch six Lost specials on The 101 Network on Saturday nights from December 26. While the specials will be based mostly on the episode recaps that aired on ABC over the past years, some never-before-aired elements will be included in the mix, such as DVD extras, behind-the-scenes footage and deleted scenes.
E! Online has revealed that, to cover for Maggie Grace’s non-appearance at the beginning of season 6 - she will, by the way, return later in the season - Lost will push a significant chance to Shannon and Boone’s back story. So, sure, the bomb worked, but I’ll guess they haven’t met at the possible revised time line? That’d be a lot of explaining
Talking to TV Guide Magazine after earning a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actor, Michael Emerson hinted that the final season of Lost could be the best yet.
“I think next year, after the conclusion of the final season, when people see the strength and style of how we go out, I expect Lost to have more recognition,” he said.
He’s also hinting at strong performance from Terry O’Quinn, and especially for Josh Holloway. “And it’s a great year for [him],” he said. “He just continues to get better and better. His storylines are turning out to be gripping and very moving at the same time.”
The Golden Globe nominations were announced this morning, and while Lost was left out of many of the major categories, the show did receive one nomination for Michael Emerson in Supporting Actor.
The Golden Globes combine drama, comedy, miniseries and TV movies for the supporting categories, so Emerson’s competition is:
Neil Patrick Garris, How I Met Your Mother
Jeremy Piven, Entourage
William Hurt, Damages
John Lithgow, Dexter
Ben Linus vs. the Trinity Killer? Now that’s what I call a showdown!
BuddyTV has a list of the 50 best TV episodes of 2009, and it includes not one, not two but THREE episodes from Lost’s fantastic fifth season. Which episodes? You’ll have to check it out to see if your three favorite episodes of season 5 made the list.
As a bit of misdirection, I will tell you that the list includes an episode titled “The Incident,” but it’s probably not the one you’re thinking of.
ABC has just released the first official photos for season 6. Yes, they’re cast photos, but it’s still our first real glimpse of Claire’s return.
What can we tell from these photos? Well, a lot of them have their hands on their hips, and many of them look sad or forlorn to me. Basically, I’m not smelling a happy ending for most of the characters.
Anyway, check out the pictures for yourselves and tell us what you think.
