Comments on: EW.com Interview with Damon Lindelof & Carlton Cuse http://www.lostblog.net/lost/tv/show/ewcom-interview-with-damon-lindelof-carlton-cuse Lost news, theories and discussion of ABC TV's Lost Fri, 21 Nov 2008 12:22:47 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.1.3 By: SpinPapi http://www.lostblog.net/lost/tv/show/ewcom-interview-with-damon-lindelof-carlton-cuse#comment-108483 SpinPapi Tue, 04 Sep 2007 07:10:18 +0000 http://www.lostblog.net/lost/tv/show/ewcom-interview-with-damon-lindelof-carlton-cuse#comment-108483 I love how they have a macro outline of the show but leave the micro somewhat "to fate," that is, who is rubbing them the right way when it comes time to cast, how a particular character may bend or shape the story (and how it wouldn't happen if it was anybody else in the role)...it gives them tremendous creative flexibility in each season to do something really unique that plays on the individual talents of the cast. Makes the LOST experience (pun intended) far richer and more vibrant.

And it really ticks me off when people spin (if I may borrow part of your name, SP) this as TPTB are "making it up as they go along," as if this is some great evil that is not allowed in creating a complex story like Lost.

They need to start the big tease again for next season because the casual & fringe viewership needs to hear that us loyalists are still a-buzz and interested in the saga. It is amazing when our excitement about LOST is low, our 10Mil voices equals 12Mil viewers. But, when we are excited and chatting/blogging or just spreading the word around the water cooler, ratings soar by 2-3 Mil more viewers than normal. Plus, online downloads go way-up too. Glad to see Fahey added to the line-up. I am sure he will be a key figure to the rescue frieghter-types, like Emerson is to the Others/Natives. While Emerson is OCD, maniacal, stop-at-nothing... I see Fahey as a stop-at-nothing, bottom-line oriented, corporate drill. His LOST character should be a "maximize-profit", barely in the shadows, hands-on operator. He should be the puppet- master of the new faction (think of the corporate angle of the last Jurassic Park, or the profit driver from any of the King Kongs). Fahey should also be a (science) "man-of-action", ala Kurt Russell in "The Thing". I’m glad to see some info start to flow from “Lost Robot” productions.

As you said, it doesn't start until February!!! This is bogus, this is worse than having to wait for the X-files premieres!! This is excruciating; why are they doing this? If they want to maintain a stable fan base, they should rethink the dates of their season premieres otherwise people will go away in droves. tristan wrote:
