I know both of these shows were created by J.J. Abrams. I just thought it was a cool little detail.

Maybe it was just me.

I heard about that but haven't seen a rerun of that episode yet to actually hear it.

New stuff coming out.

From an e-mail a friend sent me:

LOST Alternate Reality Game?
In the March 28th episode of the official LOST podcast, Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse made references to a new online "mystery" endeavor that would include an updated Hanso Foundation site. Well, word is starting to leak out http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/home-ente...ame-168184.php that there may be a LOST alternate reality game launching soon. According to someone who bills themselves as an ABC insider:
"ABC, Channel 4 Television in the U.K, and Australia Channel 7 will launch the “Lost Experience,” a revolutionary interactive experience based on the international hit television series, “Lost”. Working together, more than 30 broadcasters from Europe, Africa, Asia Pacific and the Middle East will release clues with new information regarding the mystery and mythology of the island featured in the series. Fans looking to solve the puzzle will find audio, video, and text clues in locations around the world, along with an online community in which to connect and collaborate with others. Just like any other good mystery, clues can and will happen anywhere at anytime across multiple platforms."
Is this the same thing Cuse and Lindelof were talking about? There's already speculation, or at least hope, that the same minds behind A.I.'s The Beast , and the Halo 2 ilovebees alternate reality games might be bringing this "LOST Experience" to life. In fact, the cloudmakers are already talking about forming again to take on this new game.
Of course, as a podcast focused on the mysteries, speculation and theories surrounding the show, LOSTCasts will be knee deep in this when it launches... if it launches. And we hope it does.


There's a new ABC website:

This is the lotto that Hurley won. Take a look at the dates on some of the other winners' checks. Now add "images" to the end of the url.

I'm especially interested in these, (but others are curious too):

That's all I got for now.

I've just about had it with these assholes and their month-long breaks between new episodes - not to mention those tedious "imagine you're on a desert island recap" shows.

Tonight's episode damn well better be worth the wait. I'm poised to jump off the bandwagon.

[Mile High Mania]

If you scroll over some of the words on that lottery URL, it takes you to other sites... move your cursor around and check it out. Just more madness.

[Mile High Mania]

There's a URL link for Atlas Hosting in one of the words... I called it and some sleepy sounding guy named Chris answered. Odd... I asked what his affilliation to the show LOST is and he said there isn't one and while he hosts the megalotto URL, it was a spoof. So, it appears to be nothing more than a LOST fan with more time on his hands than those on the island.

[teedubya]

Luckily that Island Recap show, actually made me watch it, to catch up on the show. Now, after two years, having watched ONLY the island recap show... Im gonna watch a bit more. My wife loves the show, so its an opportunity to bond, i s'pose.

'Lost' producers lobby for scheduling change Topic Starter

'Lost' producers lI obby for scheduling change
Tuesday, April 4 2006, 20:50 BST - by Neil Wilkes


The producers of Lost are seeking a new scheduling model for the show in the US to curb the frequency of repeats.

Most US series, including Lost, typically air 22 new episodes each season over a period of 36 weeks, meaning that new episodes are often punctuated with repeats of old episodes.

US Lost fans have complained that having to wait many weeks for a new episode has ruined their enjoyment of the show.

24 has successfully avoided the problem by delaying its return from September to January each year before airing its full season without interruption.

Although Lost's broadcaster, ABC, is unwilling to adopt a similar strategy, show producers have come up with a compromise solution.

"We're lobbying ABC for when the show is on, it's on, and when it's off, it's off," exec producer Damon Lindelof told E! Online. "So, we want to air it in three acts next year. You know, blocks of seven, seven and eight. But in order to do that, we have to roll the show out in October instead of September, and hopefully that will work out."

Dang shame. Never shoot the cute women on an island. Doesn't he know that island lackanookie leads to onanism, or worse.

I assume this will all become clear later. For now it's pretty mysterious.

[Mile High Mania]

Well ... I didn't see that coming until he took the gun from her and I thought "this is gonna take a left turn".

[DMAC]

We have found the theme of the show. Everyone will slowly get shot over the next 10 seasons, which will end the show. And nothing will ever get answered or accomplished.

[Bearcat]

I finally shook the addiction... haven't watched for a few weeks (well, probably only missed one new episode ), and never even thought about it this week until seeing this thread.





So.... what happened?

Just things that make you want to know more, you know, the usual.
