    I'm intrigued by the premise of this show. Wednesday nights are going to be packed with good stuff this fall.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    [font=Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Sans Serif]David Fury, co-executive producer of ABC's upcoming SF series Lost, told SCI FI Wire that he intended to develop his own show after the end of his last one, The WB's Angel, but that he couldn't pass up the new series co-created by J.J. Abrams (Alias). "I turned down everything this year and had some nice offers, but nothing felt right to me," Fury said in an interview. "I wanted to spend more time at home and thought I was entitled to take a year off. It's a testament to J.J. and [co-creator] Damon Lindelof, because I had turned down Lost initially. It's only because they forgot that they tried me again. I decided I owed them the courtesy to see the pilot, and it was great! I decided to meet them, and I was totally seduced."[/font]

    [font=Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Sans Serif]Shot on location in Hawaii, Lost centers on the survivors of a plane crash trying to stay alive on an isolated South Pacific island, where freakish occurrences take place. Matthew Fox and Evangeline Lilly lead an ensemble cast.[/font]

    [font=Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Sans Serif]"It's not an easy show to categorize," said Fury, who previously wrote for Buffy the Vampire Slayer. "It borders on genre, an adventure show and character studies. It's what appealed to me about Buffy, which was that it could be so many different things. My biggest problem with shows in general is that they are what they are. But this is a show where we can mess around with the tone of it. I'm really happy to be on it." Lost premieres on ABC at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Sept. 22.[/font]

    It does look interesting. First time I saw a commercial I thought it was a new movie. I dont understand though who is chasing them around with guns in the commercial. Any thoughts?

    My impression was that is was guns they found in the wreckage of the plane (I mean, they wouldn't have them in the passenger compartment, right?).

    Pretty intense show. I really hate seeing plane crash scenes. Could be a good series.

    PS ok it is getting stupid. Looks like they have dinosaurs on the island. Gawd.
