Lost Will Finally Give Answers

Lost executive producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse told SCI FI Wire they are finally going to provide some answers at the beginning of the Emmy-winning ABC show's upcoming second season. Honest.

"In terms of just the narrative and the characters, the second year is going to be different," Cuse said in an interview. "The first year was really about denial of their circumstances. They were looking for a way off the island. The second season of the show is about looking inward. Going into the hatch is the perfect metaphor for that concept. As they look inward, they're going to look more inward towards themselves. And obviously the revelation that there are survivors of the tail section is going to have a major impact on the society of our survivors."

The hit series about a group of plane-crash survivors who run into mysterious things on a not-so-deserted island returns on Sept. 22 in a new Wednesday 9 p.m. timeslot. The season premiere will take place moments after the events in the season-one finale, which left some of the characters looking down the opened hatch and others having just suffered an attack while trying to escape on a raft.

Lindelof, who created the series with J.J. Abrams, told SCI FI Wire that the big mysteries will still exist this season. "What we find inside the hatch is going to drive the majority of season two," he said. "And the other side of season two is obviously what happens to our boys who were out on the raft." The audience will also learn more about the mysterious Others. "Who are these people? What are they doing here? And why do they keep f--king with us? That becomes a big part of it," Lindelof said.

The two cagey producers won't give away too many details. But Lindelof said that the first three episodes will provide an "enormous" amount of island mythology. Especially the third episode.

And, according to Cuse, the show's writers are planning to inject more romance into the series. Several new characters have been added to the cast this season, including Michelle Rodriguez, who plays a passenger from the tail section with whom Jack (Matthew Fox) had a brief encounter in a flashback last season.

But don't look for the show's "bread and butter" to vanish, Lindelof said. Lost will continue to reveal "personal, character-based stories" through flashbacks. "The thing that's very exciting with Lost is there are still all these chapters of these people's pasts before the plane crashed," he said. "Everybody thinks with Locke [Terry O'Quinn], all we need to know is how he got in that wheelchair, and then we're done." No so, he said.

Cuse added that there's still a lot to learn about the characters. "Hopefully you'll be surprised," he said, adding: "People have more [to] them than one defining event in their lives. I think we all have at least a handful of them, and they shape the people that we become."

 

Holy shit. That was awesome.

 

What the hell?

 

Great episode...can't wait till next week.

Lots of theories, but I know that show will throw a twist that will blow them all to hell, so I ain't even trying.

 

Anyone else notice that the unlucky numbers are all numbers that are retired at Yankee stadium? and I think they are in the order that they were retired in. One of the producers said that they got the #23 from some book and in the book under 23 it had a pyramid with an eye in it meaning bad luck and that same picture is the tatoo on Jack's left arm. Also, anyone else notice that all of Jack's patients died at 8:15 A.M. and they were on Oceanic flight 815. Also, the quarantine sign was on the inside of the hatch meaning that the outside is the actual quarantined area, and the inside is safe. That needle he was using was probably a vaccine. Also, Claire mentioned that they tried to stick a needle into her baby. Maybe it was that guy sticking a needle in her baby too save her from catching the virus that is somewhere on the island.

And Walt also said "Where's The Button, The Button is Bad" when he talked to Shannon. That was the same button Jack was about to press when Locke came in with the gun to his head and said don't push that. They also could all be in purgatory and have all died, the island being purgatory and they are just redeeming all their sins so they don't go to hell. The others would be those who aren't trying to do that and are therefore enemies. I don't know about the purgatory thing. It would just make since on why they can't escape the island, and why it's so big but no one's discovered it. They all died in the plane crash.
