It's the highly anticipated, final (sob!) season of one of the best shows ever on television.

And yet, a certain former star apparently does not want to take part.

Bananas, right?!

Sources close to ABC's Lost tell me that although most of the original cast?holler!?will be seen in some capacity for the show's upcoming season, one former Lost castmember has turned down an offer to return to the series.

So who is it?

Well, you know we can't name names in such cases, but suffice it to say that this is a person you'd assume would very much want to return to the series.

According to my moles, offers went out to the original castmembers several weeks ago, and this particular Lost star decided to decline. While some of the other returning Losties have already filmed scenes, this Lost holdout has not been on the set or filmed anything for the series, according to insiders.

Want one more hint? OK, twist my arm?

I can tell you that it's not the hot Damonic bloodsucker also known as Ian Somerhalder, whom we caught up with recently while he was in Hawaii filming for Lost. "Maybe, just maybe we'll get to see a more-relaxed Boone," he teased to us. "Maybe we'll get to see a Boone who's just happy."

E!

Perrineau 'not asked back to Lost'

Harold Perrineau has revealed that he has not been asked to reprise his role on Lost.

However, speaking to E! Online, the 46-year-old actor, who played Michael Dawson on the ABC cult series, said that he would love to go back.

"Honestly, no-one has asked," he said. "But if I was asked to come back to Lost, indeed I would say yes. We all started that journey together, and I would love to be able to end it with everybody.

"It would be a great thing to do, to get to say goodbye to them all at the same time. I would love to go back and hang out a little bit."

Perrineau also dismissed rumours that he fell out with the producers after he was written out.

"Those people are my family. And not like my twisted, dysfunctional family, but people I totally love, you know what I mean? It was a great show for me and I'm really glad to be part of that."

He added: "There are no hard feelings. Period. That's the real truth."

Casting News

It looks like Maggie Grace is headed to Oahu in November to shoot top-secret Lost scenes as Shannon Rutherford, who was buried on the island back in ?05. Producers had invited Maggie back earlier, but the busy actress had to wait for shooting to conclude on a string of three film projects, including the role she just wrapped as Cameron Diaz?s kid sister in ?Knight & Day,? also starring Tom Cruise. I?m hearing Shannon may be cut into an episode shot earlier this fall with brother Boone, played by Ian Somerhalder

It's not Shannon then!

*slaps Rappy* Spoiler tags. :p

I don't know why said person would leave, its not like they have any other things they should be doing....

she's dead :p its not like I said smokey was going to go to LA in 2012 and wipe out the world :rolleyes:

There is almost nothing I?m looking forward to more, in the realm of movies, television or books, than the final season of Lost. For those of you hoping that we?d have a seamless run for the final chapter of the sci-fi television series, I have some bad news for you. The bad news takes the form of the Winter Olympic games, which will cut into the sixth season.

While no official broadcast dates have yet been announced, and the games are being broadcast on NBC (not ABC), series showrunner Cartlon Cuse has revealed to IGN that ABC will take a time out during the Winter Olympics after the first few episodes, which are tentatively scheduled to begin in January. Lost will take a break and resume the season in early March.

    • Windows 11 is getting redesigned taskbar settings in new build by Taras Buria Microsoft is rolling out new Windows 11 preview builds in the Insider program, offering users new features and changes to try ahead of public release. In the Experimental channel (formerly Dev), Microsoft is shipping build 26300.8758, while in the Beta channel, users can download build 26220.8754. The changelogs do not contain much, but there is an important update to taskbar settings. Here is what is new in build 26220.8754: [Taskbar] Taskbar customization just got easier. As we continue to make improvements to the Taskbar experience mentioned last month, we've introduced a dedicated Taskbar Size setting, making it simpler to find, understand, and personalize your ideal taskbar experience. We've also made refinements to the transitions between taskbar sizes for a smoother overall experience. [File Explorer] We've improved the reliability of thumbnail previews for cloud files in the Details pane. The pane has also been reorganized so file properties are easier to find and review at a glance. Fixed an issue where the OneDrive shortcut in File Explorer stops working when File Explorer is run in administrative mode. Fixed an issue where the confirmation dialog might display an internal Recycle Bin file name instead of the original file name when permanently deleting a file. [Sounds] Improved system sounds when using Windows in dark mode. And here is what is new in build 26220.8754: [Smart card removal policy] Administrators can now configure Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) and Windows 365 sessions that use Microsoft Entra ID (RDS AAD Auth) authentication to automatically disconnect when a redirected smart card is removed. This extends smart card removal policy enforcement to Microsoft Entra authenticated remote sessions, helping organizations meet security and compliance requirements. [File Explorer] Fixed an issue where the OneDrive shortcut in File Explorer stops working when File Explorer is run in administrator mode. [Taskbar] Improved reliability of loading the system tray area of the taskbar. [Sounds] Improved system sounds when using Windows in dark mode. You can find release notes for build 26300.8758 here and for build 26220.8754 here.
