This is an update on something I posted a year ago today.
In memory of LOST, the best show ever!

Listen to the showrunner: it was NOT dead the whole time (and neither were the characters).
For the legions of idiots who didn’t get the ending of LOST. Damon Lindelof will explain to you, if you’re lucky.
Tip for interviewers everywhere: don’t tell the showrunner you didn’t like the ending if you didn’t even understand it. Lindelof, of course, handles it like a champ.
Fall TV news (renewals, cancellations, pilots) and more!
- Hawaii Five-0 (Daniel Dae Kim) has been renewed for season 3.

- ABC has given a series order to supernatural drama 666 Park Avenue starring Terry O’Quinn.
- You may have heard about Emilie de Ravin co-starring in ABC’s drama pilot Americana but Deadline reports the show is “not going forward.” (I just checked and the show’s Twitter account has been deleted which would seem to further corroborate that report.)
- Across the pond, Naveen Andrews is starring in Sky1’s fantasy drama Sinbad, which premieres in July.
- Maggie Grace will be joining Californication next year for a 9-episode arc as Faith, a muse/groupie to famous rock stars on the show. There is potential for her character to receive a spinoff show.
- Matthew Fox’s new film Alex Cross hits theatres in October.
- BBC America’s travel-adventure series Wild Things with Dominic Monaghan will find Dom traveling the globe for the “biggest, scariest, and weirdest insects on the planet.”
- The CW cancelled Ringer but fear not, Nestor Carbonell fans. You can get your Richard Alpert fix on the big screen twice this summer in For Greater Glory (June 1) and a tiny little indie flick called The Dark Knight Rises (July 20).
- Evangeline Lilly will be in The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey which hits theatres December 14.
- Titus Welliver was to star in NBC’s drama pilot Midnight Sun, but it was not picked up.
- Common Law featuring Sonya Walger just premiered on USA.
- Damon Lindelof co-wrote Prometheus. It looks incredible and will be in theatres June 8. Brad Bird is set to direct 1952, a script Damon wrote last year for Disney.
- Carlton Cuse is aboard A&E’s The Bates Motel which is a prequel to Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho. He is also developing a Civil War-era show for ABC.
- Josh Holloway will star in Battle of the Year: The Dream Team, in theatres January 25, 2013.
- JJ Abrams is producing the Eric Kripke-written NBC drama Revolution. You can watch the four-minute trailer here.
- NBC cancelled Kyle Killen’s Awake, featuring Dylan Minnette.
- FOX cancelled Alcatraz instead of giving it a second season. Here’s hoping Jorge finds a great new show to work on real soon.

Cutie-pie collective!
Oh Sawyer. *sigh*
I have a whole collection of LOST cards from www.supermercadocomics.com. They’re awesome!
The minute we start vilifying writers for taking risks, we become complicit in an effort to make television boring. I am not interested in the dive where the guy just jumps off the board and flawlessly splishes into the water. I want to watch the one where there is a high probability he will belly flop so devastatingly that even the traditionally emotionless German judge cringes in empathy. And friends, I have had my fair share of belly flops. See? I told you we’d get to LOST.
