anyone notice mention of Oceanic Flight 815 being shot down by (garble) subterranean (something) in second episode of Chuck? Good chance it is unrelated, since Oceanic is used (according to wiki) as a fictional airline by many tv shows, and the snapper is different networks IIRC (I think Chuck is NBC)....but still caught my ear

Yeah I saw that I did think it was cool :D

There is a big difference:

24 begins and ends in each season, without leaving any questions.

Lost leaves so many, that the gap between seasons is like between episodes ...

Nope. In 24, season two ended with an assassination attempt on Palmer and season five ended with Jack being kidnapped by the Chinese. The part of Lost's success is the mystery of the show. That's how it started from the pilot. It's much more frustrating to have an airing schedule like ABC did for season two of Lost; any sensible person would consider non-stop runs better than gaps. Besides, having it aired sooner would not tell you more than you would know when the season ends in May, you get some answers sooner. Woopy, I'd pick weekly showings over sooner answers.

That's what this thread is all about.

I wasn?t telling I like gaps.

I was only comparing Lost with 24 and why is more desperating to wait for the next season of Lost; because it leaves so many questions that it doesn't seem to have 6 different seasons, but only one with 5 big gaps in between...

Exactly.

All the other seasons began by late September or beginning of October, with almost the same number of episodes (24,23,22).

So, gaps or not in the middle, I think they could easily make 16 in the same time (1 year).

By the time we watch episode 4, season 4 shooting will be complete.

Thanks, Peewee. Hope then start shooting season 5, so we don't have to wait so much again...

Mattachew: I'm failing to explain myself so I'll keep it simple:

- I DON'T like gaps. I prefer all the season in one block, just like you.

- I was only comparing waiting for Lost and for 24.

- To avoid further questions, I am a big fan of 24 too ... (and Monk, Dr.House ...)

^ Each season will start in either January or February most likely. That's the way 24 does it and I believe that's the way ABC wants to continue to do it. I'd rather it start in Feb and we get 16 consecutive episodes than get some here and there with 6 weeks off in between.

The actors need time off to, so they can't just jump from doing season four to doing season five. They all have families and stuff that might not live on the island. Not just the actors, but the writers, directors, they all need a break. I'm happy with the way things are going, of course the one down fall to how they're doing this is that if the viewers don't like the direction they're going in, there's nothing they can do to make up for it because they'll be done filming already.

Yeah I like the fact that it starts in the Feb because as Hurmoth mentioned its a straight run then and theres no repeats or catch up shows plus theres only 16 now so they can do that with ease as other stuff are finishing.

Heroic Hurley moment coming

In the latest Lost Magazine there was a very small snippet/spoiler from Damon Lindelof regarding Hurley.

I love Hurley. He is the greatest. More heroic Hurley moments like in the finale please! Ok, that was more of a statement than a question. Do you agree?

Hell yes, I agree. And thusly, I hereby promise you one heroic Hurley moment in the season four premiere!

Sounds good!

Fisher Stevens to play Minkowski

The mysterious Minkowski, whose voice was heard on the other side of the satellite phone found by the "Lost" gang, now has a face as Fisher Stevens has been tapped to play the role on the ABC/ABC Studios series.

Stevens will recur as Minkow?ski on "Lost." The character, which was referenced several times toward the end of last season, was only heard talking to Jack (Matthew Fox) on the phone and told the survivors in the third-season finale in May that they will be rescued.

In the "Lost" fan blogosphere, the name of the character has been tied to German mathematician Hermann Minkowski, whose Minkowski space -- a four-dimensional system including the three dimensions of space plus the dimension of time -- was used in Einstein's theory of special relativity.

Stevens, who recently co-directed the critically praised documentary, "Crazy Love," is repped by Fortitude and the Collective

No doubt about where the things are going ...

    • Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe PC gamers have two more games they can add to their library without needing to open their wallets, as the Epic Games Store's freebie offer has just refreshed. That means last week's Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King offer has been replaced by two new games, which happen to be Robobeat and Citizen Sleeper copies. From the duo, Robobeat lands from developer Simon Fredholm, offering a rhythm-based action game. Released only last year, the title puts you into the shoes of Ace, a bounty hunter that's targeting the robot showman Frazzer. The fast-paced title offers movement techniques like wall-running, sliding, and bunny hopping to zoom around while shooting enemies, but the requirement is doing everything to the beat. Outside of built-in tracks, the title also lets players upload their own music to populate its levels too. Next, Citizen Sleeper lands from Jump Over The Age, a sci-fi RPG adventure taking place in a ruined space station where thousands of people are trying to survive. The tabletop RPG-inspired title uses things like dice and clocks to change how the player approaches situations and survives their day-to-day lives. There is a large range of characters to meet with in the station, each with their own storylines and alliances. "You are a sleeper, a digitised human consciousness in an artificial body, owned by a corporation that wants you back," says the developer about the setting. "Thrust amongst the unfamiliar and colourful inhabitants of the Eye, you need to build friendships, earn your keep, and navigate the factions of this strange metropolis, if you hope to survive to see the next cycle." The Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat giveaways are set to run until June 25 on the Epic Games Store, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, new freebies will take its place on the same day. They are supposed to be copies of RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.

    • The Online part hasn't even been announced and probably won't be included on day one. This is a massive singleplayer game.
    • While I agree with all that, it just proves there's an a** built for every seat.
