I meant the actor that plays him. There was some spiel about how he didn't want to come back a while ago.

Yes, apparently. He thought it was unfair to bring Michael back for a number of episodes of Season 4 only to be killed off at the end. But looks like that was just a rumour...

Hopefully Walt might make an appearance...so many questions surrounding him..

8:59AM: T-Minus one minute and counting to the last ever LOST panel at a Television Critics Association Press Tour. Well, that is until the inevitable spin-off, re-boot, re-imagination dreamed up by some desperate ABC executive five seasons from now.

9:04AM: Since I?ve just been informed that ?we?re going to get started in just a couple of minutes,? I?ll kill a few of my own by letting you know that expected to be in attendance are Emilie de Ravin (Claire), Daniel Dae Kim (Jin), Josh Holloway (Sawyer), Evangeline Lilly (Kate), Damon Lindelof (Co-Creator/Executive Producer), Carlton Cuse (Executive Producer), Terry O?Quinn (Locke), Michael Ermerson (Ben), and Jorge Gargeia (Hurley). Most of whom will just sit on stage and look pretty as 99.9% of the questions get directed to LOSTerminds (Yup, still determined to make that name happen!) Lindelof and Cuse.

9:07AM: Evangeline Lilly promises that she?s going to cry like a baby when the show ends. Jorge Garcia says that shooting has been very nostalgic, like, ?Woah! I haven?t been here since season three.? While Linedlof jokes, ?I can?t believe they?re actually going to let us get away with this.?

9:14AM: Carlton Cuse promises that they?ve known the final image of the show since when they first plotted out the first season. Being sure to add that they?ve been adding elements, the end is not yet written and much of the character stuff has yet to be fully worked out.

9:17AM: ?They [ABC] have not pressured us at all.? said Carlton Cuse with regards to a spin-off. Translation: Don?t hold your breathe for SAWYER!

9:18AM: Obligatory trek down memory lane. ?Sangria Thursdays,? jokes Evangeline Lilly. And on a more serious note, ?I?ll never forget watching the episode where Claire gave birth and Boone died. It sort of culminated everything the show represents in these two very heroic moments. I don?t often cry watching the show because I know the script and have filmed everything. But I remember thinking this is something I?m proud to be a part of.?

9:25AM: Lindelof remembers moments in the form of walking across the bridge on the Disney lot from the writer?s room to the executive suite. Where each June himself and Cuse pitch the following season to the ABC execs. The hatch!? Time Travel!? Credits ABC President Steve Macpherson for allowing them to stick to their vision. Cuse talks about collaboration and how the orchestra once spontaneously broke out into applause while playing the music for a season one scene. Michael Emerson says, ?I have lots of fond memories of breathless confrontations in small rooms.? While Garcia adds, ?Running away from an exploding plane wing is always something that?s going to be emblazed in my head.?

9:26AM: ?The premiere is definitely like ?What? Wait. Let me read that again,?? says Jorge Garcia. And, after Emilie de Ravin says she had to re-read the season premiere three times, Lindelof jokes, ?Get ready to scratch your heads America.?

9:30AM: ?The season premiere picks up right after the finale,? promises Cuse. ?We don?t want to give away what the show is going to be this season which is why we haven?t shown any new footage.?

9:35AM: On Sawyer?s journey, Holloway remembers reading the first season and thinking, ?This guy is such an *******, I got to figure out how to stay alive.?

9:38AM: ?I?m a lifelong Democrat and it?s amazing how fickle my political leanings became when I first heard the White House was considering February 2nd [for the State of the Union] I said, ?That MotherF*cker!? joked Lindelof.

9:41AM: Cuse promises that there will be new footage from the final season released prior to the premiere.

9:43AM: ?The stories we?re telling in the final season really harken back to the first season, so that?s probably the most important thing going into the final season.? says Cuse. Adds Damon, ?We?ll show who [the characters] used to be and who they are now, makes you feel like we felt in season one.?

FmEzq.jpg

9:45AM: On being so indelibly linked to the show, and the possibility of attending LOST conventions for the better part of this century. ?We all hope we?ll have something else to do,? said O?Quinn. Jokes Holloway, ?I don?t know what you?re talking about. I?m retiring and only doing conventions!?

9:48PM: ?Harold Perrineau and Cynthia Watros will be back on the show this season.? Promises Cuse: ?All your Libby questions will be answered.? Adds Damon, ?No, they will not, but Cynthia will be back.?.

Latest From Kristin - TCA Tour Snippets - 12th Jan 2010

CARLTON CUSE

What about Maggie returning as Shannon?

We would love to have Maggie Grace back, but she's very busy?she's got a movie career. We would love to work it out and have her back on the show, and we've talked to her; we're just trying to get that worked out.

When in season six will Harold Perrineau and Cynthia Watros be appearing?

In the latter half of the season.

Do you have plans to bring Charlie back?

Yes, Dominic Monaghan is back for four episodes this season.

Malcolm David Kelley is the big question I have...

Well, Malcolm is very tricky because of the age thing, and it makes it very hard for him. We would love to have him back, but he has aged and looks older than his character. So that's the problem with him, so we're still trying to see if there's a way to work that out.

Will the clips from Comic-Con?the Mr. Cluck's commercial and the Kate crime feature?make sense once we've seen the premiere, or will we have to wait to fit them into the mythology?

I think they will start to make sense after the premiere, but it will take a number of episodes for them to fully make sense.

What about the Helen episode with Katey Sagal?

That comes up in the first third of the season.

Obviously, you can't answer every single question, but some things like the numbers?

No, obviously, if we said nothing about the smoke monster, if we said nothing about the numbers, we would be killed, but we believe that we recognize what the major questions are, and we will be providing some answers to those questions.

Where are you in terms of writing the episodes?

We are in the middle of writing episode 11, prepping episode 12 and we're writing episode 13.

How quickly does Claire come back?

I can't say.

What is the vibe of the final season?

I'd say it's a lot like the vibe of first season?the actors talk a lot about how they?ve reconnected with each other?there's almost a nostalgic quality. I think the first season of any show, the actors get together, they bond, and then there?s a drift over time. But because the show has an end, the actors have a chance to sort of rebond, much like they did in the first season when they screened the episodes every Wednesday at each other. There's a real sense that the connections between these characters is a huge part of the show: Why did these characters cross [paths with] each other?

DAMON LINDELOF

Are you worried the show will jump the shark?

I think that the show has jumped the shark at least a dozen times now, and fortunately for us, the storytellers, but unfortunately for a mainstream audience, yes, absolutely there was a time 23 million people were watching Lost, and that time has passed. Every time this show takes a risk, declares itself more overtly, there are going to be people saying, "I wasn't watching a show about time travel. I don't like that show. I don't want to watch that anymore." But we want to tell the story that we're committed to, and hopefully the audience will stick with us. We can't really comment past that.

How will this finale compare to other recent series finales?

I think that The Shield was a phenomenal series finale, and certainly Newhart is one of my favorites, but my all-time favorite series finale is M*A*S*H. I remember watching that with my folks; I remember everyone on our street was watching it. I remember Hawkeye basically saying, "It was a baby, it wasn't a chicken, it was a baby," and how emotional it was when the chopper finally lifted off and Klinger stayed behind; it stayed with me for my life. I feel like to end a show that people do care about and to give the characters incredibly fulfilling resolutions, M*A*S*H is the pinnacle of something we're trying to achieve. That being said, it wasn't a mystery show, so we've got to answer all our mysteries and give the audience a satisfying character conclusion, so I'd like to say for the record that our degree of difficulty is very high.

JOSH HOLLOWAY

What happens to Sawyer this season?

They've kept me in the dark since day one; I don't know, and I don't want to know. I'm spoiled now with not having to study much, just get it and go.

Anyone know anything about the hidden pyramid on the island what's going to be relieved this season? I think that's what lies in the middle of the infamous temple. If it's true, then my theory is the island was a part of Egypt, originally. And that it either broke off because of some earthquake or it was "moved".

"Not all questions will be answered"?

What, so that they can create spinoffs?

I think they mean they're going to leave some of the questions up to the audience to answer. They've said this for a while now, that not everything will be answered by the end of the show.

Lost viewers won't get answers about the nature of the island! Source

Damon Lindelof has admitted that Lost fans will not get answers to questions about the island.

Previously, the executive producer had promised that fans would get more answers about the series in the sixth season premiere than the first five seasons put together.

However, Lindelof has said that those answers will not involve questions surrounding the island's mythology.

"There are certain questions I'm very befuddled by, like, 'What is the island?' or 'What do the numbers mean?'" he told SFX.

"We're going to be explaining significantly more about the numbers, but what is a potential answer to 'What do the numbers mean?' I feel like you have to be very careful about entering into midi-chlorian territory."

He added: "[The island] is a place. I can't explain to you why it travels through space-time, it just does. You have to accept that.

"So we intend to answer the big questions, but in terms of the island itself, there will be questions left unanswered after the show ends."

Lost returns for its sixth and final season Tuesday, February 2 on ABC.

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By TsarNikky · Posted

      Why would any self-respecting intelligent person follow any recommendation by Donald's GOP administration? With almost two years of fabrications, deceit, and blatantly illegal behavior, why believe them now? They had best be gone after the November 2026 election, so we'll wait and see.
    • AltSendme 0.4.1

      By Copernic · Posted

      AltSendme 0.4.1 by Razvan Serea AltSendme is a minimal, cross-platform application designed for fast, secure, and private peer-to-peer file transfers. It allows users to send files or entire directories directly between devices without relying on cloud servers, accounts, or any personal information. Everything is encrypted end-to-end using modern protocols like QUIC and TLS 1.3, ensuring both strong security and low-latency performance. Transfers are verified with BLAKE3 for data integrity, and interrupted downloads automatically resume, making the experience reliable even on unstable connections. You can transfer anything—images, videos, documents, and more. Integrity checks are performed on both ends, so your files are automatically verified for correctness during both sending and receiving. AltSendme works seamlessly across local networks or long-distance links, capable of saturating multi-gigabit connections for extremely fast delivery. With built-in NAT traversal and encrypted relay fallback, it connects devices almost anywhere. The app integrates with the Sendme CLI and will soon support mobile and web platforms. Fully free and open-source, AltSendme offers a lightweight, privacy-first alternative to traditional cloud-based services, removing size limits, upload costs, and unnecessary data exposure. AltSendme 0.4.1 changelog: Release Highlights Self-hosted relays: Run your own iroh relay so transfers don't rely on public infrastructure. Includes a full deployment template in deploy/relay/ with Docker Compose for a VPS and configuration examples for production use. Fly.io support: One-click deploy template for Fly.io, including a quick-start config (fly.dev.toml) for testing without a custom domain, plus production setup with Let's Encrypt and your own hostname. Relay settings UI: New Settings → Network panel to choose how AltSendme connects: automatic public relays, custom self-hosted URLs (with optional auth token), or disabled. Test connections, verify latency, and see live relay status in the footer. Disable relays: Turn off relay servers entirely when you only need same-network transfers (e.g. LAN). Direct connections only. No relay hop required when devices can reach each other. Android graduates from beta: Android is now part of the regular release cycle alongside desktop. APKs ship with each version (universal, arm64, and armv7). Other improvements Private relay access control via shared auth token Relay fallback notifications when a custom relay is unreachable Broadcast mode toggle in sharing settings Android release build fixes (split-per-ABI APKs, universal APK preservation) UI polish: mobile safe-area insets, dropzone layout, transfer progress animation Bug fixes for minification-related serialization issues and system tray icon loading What's Changed feat(relay): add relay status functionality and settings UI (a120cdf) feat(relay): implement custom relay server configuration and verification (51276c7) feat(relay): add configuration for private relay access and enhance observability features (48fbabf) feat(relay): enhance relay URL validation, display connection status (d4fffa0) feat(relay): add RelayChangeGuard component and enhance relay-related translations (16ba514) feat(broadcast): add toggle setting for broadcast mode in sharing UI (ca6d977) fix(relay): correct QUIC discovery port, pin image, templatize fly.dev (52a2ba5) fix: More broken serialization due to minification (67491a9) fix(android): preserve true universal APK across per-ABI builds (e9f256f) fix(ui): conditional safe-area insets padding on mobile (1182f0e) refactor(transfer): CircularRing component animation fix (944572b) chore(android): drop x86 and x86_64 release APKs, keep universal+arm64+armv7 (34ada0b) Download: AltSendme 0.4.1 | ARM64 | ~9.0 MB (Open Source) Download: AltSendme for MacOS | Android Links: AltSendme Home Page | GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Why Delta Chat is the best decentralized messenger you have probably never tried

      By zikalify · Posted

      You are mostly right about the ephemeral nature of it. As I mention in the article, if you dont add a second device or take a backup of your account before uninstalling it, then yes you will lose access to your account. That said, in terms of actual user experience when you sync multiple devices your message history carries across and there's also a Saved Messages chat like there is on Telegram to send messages and attachments between your installs. But yh, what you point out are correct and its not trying to emulate Messenger or Telegram.
    • You've tried DuckDuckGo and Brave Search, now get serious with SearXNG

      By zikalify · Posted

      OK so SearXNG is a meta search engine that you can install locally or use via a public instance. It scrapes other search engines which you choose and then sorts the results. Not as complicated as multiple relays

      By excalpius · Posted

      The only difference here is that you think you came up with these reasons. You didn't. These age old fearmongering lies (that were NEVER true) were funded by and the anger stoked by Putin through proxies like Farage (and later in the USA, Trump) and filtered down through the skinheads, Neonazis, etc. until it reached the uninformed, ignorant, and gullible -- never realizing they were being played for fools against their own best interests. Even now, despite all of the EVIDENCE proving that Brexit was a terrible mistake for ALL citizens of the UK and that its supporters were tricked by Putin's proxies into sabotaging their own nation, you're still here defending these well-known lies as if they were ever true. Not only are they not true. They NEVER were. So, when are you going to realize that you were lied to and actually get angry at the liars and charlatans who lied to you, instead of blaming the innocent people they lied to you about?
