General spoilers:

07/30 - Carlton Cuse revealed: We aren't changing any of the format of the show. We are just adding the flash forwards as an element. They have made a radio call to a freighter, and there are people on that freighter, and it might be logical to imagine that that storyline will continue... The situation is going to be very intense this year. Charlie wrote on his hand not Penny's boat , and the message he wrote on his hand was very important. It was really funny because the clip at Comic-Con showed Mr. Friendly saying, 'by the time you see this, I'm gonna be dead, but I am telling you it's a shame because whoever is going to come after the Others is going to be a hell of a lot worse than we ever were.' Damon and I were listening to him and sort of nodding our head going, 'That's pretty prophetic.' With Jin and Sun there is a very dynamic situation at work. She's pregnant... the fate of her child, the fate of their marriage, all those questions Damon and I will get to and more this season. Walt will be back. You will see more of Jacob.

07/27 - The Comic-Con Lost panel started off with a clip featuring Ben calling the Others a "rebel sect" and Tom (M.C. Gainey) saying "By the time you see this, I will be dead." Then, a voice-over in the clip revealed "The survival of the Island is now at stake. Carlton Cuse told that Rachel probably won't be on the Island. Cuse and Damon Lindelof warned fans to not get too attached to the character of Richard Alpert because actor nestor Carbonell is part of the regular cast of the new CBS show Cane. Cuse said that flashbacks and flashforwards will both be part of the upcoming season. Lindelof nodeed furiously when asked if Jack and Claire would find out they are related. He also confirmed that Ben and Henry Gale had words. The duo revealed that Harold Perrineau is indeed returning as Michael Dawson but they don't want to reveal how or when he returns; however, Damon Lindelof claimed that he would return ealy in the fourth season. Lindelof added that "[Michael] too some extreme actions" and that his story is about the power of the Island to be redemptive. Cuse confirmed that it is their "intention to get to Libby's story this year." They revealed that "there are important things going on in Danielle's story and they have to sync up." They will work on syncing those things this season or the next one. Lindelof confirmed that the whole deal with the moster will be answered. The Lost panel present a never-before-seen Dharma Film. It is hosted by Marvin Candle but the man presents himself as Dr. Edgar Halifax [Note: It sounds more like Haliwax]. The film is about bunnies but more specifically about Bunny #15. Candle indentifies this station as Station 6, The Orchid. Then, he goes on to say that the viewer has probably realized by now that he or she is not working at a mere botanical research unit. He apologizes for making him or her lie to friends and family members about the nature of the work. He mentions something that sounds like "Kasimir effect" and mentions the "unique properties of the Island." Then there's one of Jacob's subliminal messages. It may have been some variation on "as Jacob loves you." Then there's a bunny riot. One of the station's alarms blares, Dr. Halifax/Marvin panics. There's an intercut clip of someone riding a bicycle. The clip is inserted upside-down, and the rider appears to be in the village of Otherville... And then, amid the chaos (perhaps this is the Incident?), the filmstrip slides off the reel.

07/25 - Harold Perrineau is returning to Lost! Source: The Ausiello Report

07/25 - During a show of AlloCiné Séries, Lost producer and director Jack Bender was asked if the format of Season 4 episodes would change to include flashfowards as used in the Season 3 finale. Here is the translation of is answer: No, there are no rules in Lost. Certain episodes will have flashfowards, others will have flashbacks, others will have neither. It will depend on the nature of the story, of what Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse will write with the writers. I know what the global approach of the upcoming season but the series will not really change: it will only depend of what the stories will be. Source: AlloCiné

07/02 - I'm hearing they're going to cast at least one newbie for next season. Source: Kristin on E!Online

06/26 - I can tell you that producers definitely have made an offer for Harold Perrineau to return in the new season, which they also did last season (Harold declined because he was working on a pilot). Back then, Harold was offered a truckload of money. Now, sources tell me he wants that same truckload. The question is whether he will receive it-hence, the holdup. Source: Kristin on E!Online

06/06 - Damon Lindelof tells me, "Desmond will have to deal with the aftereffects and the guilt of [Charlie's death]. He will question whether or not Charlie would have made this sacrifice, had he not told him that was what he was going to do? He will question the role he played in Charlie's death." So, it sounds like big sexy Dezzie is haunted by Charlie's passing, as many of us fans are! Source: Kristin on E!Online

05/31 - "The four-toed statue is something we will get to next season," Cuse revealed. "Sometimes we're surprised by the things people get fixated on. We tried to answer a fair number of questions this year, but that's one we just didn't get to." Benry's barely visible boss man will also be back, he confirms. "There will definitely be a lot more of Jacob in Season 4." Source: Ask Ausiello @ TV Guide

05/27 - Next season of Lost will feature BOTH flashbacks and flash-forwards. Source: AICN

05/22 - There's a great deal left to be told about the relationship between Sawyer and Kate. Source: Kristin on E!Online

05/01 - Lost Spoilers offers us a summary of the spoilers Cuse and Lindelof revealed in the latest podcast: They will be revisiting the psychic's predictions for Claire in the future as well as Walt's abilities. The Others' obsession with children and pregnancy goes beyond the inability to successfully bear children on the island. The Other's definitely have an interest in children with special abilities. That's why they took Walt. There are two factions of The Others and are in no relation to the hatches/stations. They will be getting back to the statue before the show ends. Source: Lost Podcasts

04/23 - Lost Spoilers offers us a summary of the spoilers Cuse and Lindelof revealed in the latest podcast: There will be a Rousseau flashback eventually. In it, it will talk about Montand and his arm. Source: Lost Podcasts

04/17 - Lost Spoilers offers us a summary of the spoilers Cuse and Lindelof revealed in the latest podcast: There's going to be a Goodwin story in the future, although it's hard to determine if they are joking. Rachel may not have had the cancer come back... Ben's folder may have been a lie, MAY. Source: Lost Podcasts

04/09 - I asked Emilie de Ravin [if Jack and Claire would ever find if they are related] during my Lost set visit, and here's her take: "There is going to have to be some kind of reference on our parts of our father or a photograph saying something to make that happen. But neither one of us talk much together anyway, let alone talk about our parents." Source: Kristin on E!Online

04/06 - Lost Spoilers offers us a summary of the spoilers Cuse and Lindelof revealed in the latest podcast: Juliet probably knows more about the monster; Rousseau will get a flashback at some point. Source: Lost Podcasts

03/27 - While walking out on the red carpet for the premiere of Meet the Robinsons, [Harold] Perrineau put himself on the record as being currently in negotiations for a return to Lost in season four. Perrineau told a Reuters' reporter that "We're trying to figure out if I can get back next season and do both." That would be an interesting feat considering Lost shoots in Hawaii and Demons will no doubt shoot in Hollywood. Source: BuddyTV

02/12/2006 - Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof reveal: Given everything else we have to tell, [Libby’s story] is going to be a mystery that's going to have to get answered in year 4. There's really one significant missing piece to Libby's story. We saw in the season finale last year that she met with Desmond, she gave him his boat, and we know that her husband died — and then we know that subsequent to that, she spent some time in a mental institution, the same one as Hurley. The question the audience wants answered is, How did she get from A to B — from Desmond to the mental institution? We know the answer to that question, but the only way to tell that story is through another character's flashback, and that character would have to be another character on the show who is not among the beach dwellers. Source: Kristin on E!Online


11/08/2006 - Cuse and Lindelof revealed: Harold Perrineau's story is not finished. He is not on the show currently, but I think everybody is very curious to know what happened to Michael and Walt, and we hope to get back to that story. That character is still out there in the Lost universe. [Eko might be back and it] might not necessarily be a flashback episode. Source: Ask Ausiello @ TV Guide

11/07/2006 - Other Tailies have survived but we don't know where they are. Future episodes will explain what happened to the doctors. Source: Lost Podcasts

07/22/2006 - Among the revelations to come: Viewers will learn why Libby was in the asylum, and why the island has healing powers. Source: Sci Fi Wire

07/22/2006 - The Powers That Be all but confirmed Libby will be appearing in flashbacks, most logically Desmond's or Hurley's. Source: Kristin on E!Online

05/14/2006 - Damon Lindelof [reveals]: Libby's got this mysterious backstory, of which we've only given you the tip of the iceberg. We know she's spent some time in the mental institution with Hurley, and the idea of killing her before she had an opportunity to explain how she got there... we have a master plan for how we're going to tell that story, but it's all posthumous. You'll start to learn Libby's moves through flashbacks over the course of the next season. So we're not done with Cynthia, but Libby is dead. Source: The Ausiello Report

05/03/2006 - Lindelof and Cuse: The growth of Malcolm David Kelly (Walt) will be addressed in the 3rd season. The story of the wrecked research vessel, it will be coming at some point but we can't guarantee it'll be in Season 3. Source: Ask Ausiello @ TV Guide [Note: Walt's growth was not addressed in season 3; however we will let the spoilers there as it shows they plan to do reveal it someday.]

09/11 - Lost was back at the historic YWCA on Richards Street in downtown Honolulu. Interior filming, so not many details. However, several fans spotted and took photos of Jorge Garcia, which would make sense, as the YWCA has played his mental institution several times. Also spotted, Lance Reddick, one of the new faces on the show. He was carrying a briefcase or suitcase, one that you'd think a doctor might carry. Source: The Transmission

09/20 - Lost executive producer Carlton Cuse confirms that [Cynthia Watros] will be playing Hurley's dearly departed sweetheart [Libby] again this season for multiple episodes, presumably in more of Desmond's flashbacks. "She'll be in enough of the show for us to fill in the missing pieces of her story," says Cuse. Source: The Ausiello Report
That's all I've got, folks - your turn. Are you as giddy about Watros' return as I am? And do you think her comeback proves this theory true? Sound off below! (And yes, this is the big casting news on an USWL that I alluded to in this week's Ask Ausiello .)

09/26 - Interestingly, Lost is back at the historic YWCA on Richards Street in downtown Honolulu. It was again an interior shoot, closed set. But, trailers indicated accommodations for "Jack" and "Hurley," and sure enough, I spotted the pair leaving the building just as I was leaving for work. The usual unrevealing 'parked trailers' photos can be found here. Hurley and Jack? Flash forward, maybe? Source: The Transmission

09/26 - It appears that episode 2 or 3 is going to be Sayid centric: I was in downtown Honolulu today (Saturday 9/22) and they were filming Lost. It was suppose to be in Germany. They had snow (shaved ice) all over the road. Some of the security said it was a Jack scene. It was not, it was Sayid. There was no dialog I could hear, just Naveen crossing the street several times.

09/30 - For at least the third time within a week, the production crew for Lost returned to the historic Laniakea YWCA building on Richards Street, across from 'Iolani Palace. For the show's many character flashbacks, this beautiful building has served as everything from a mosque to a French restaurant, but most notably as a mental institution. I have a feeling that the recent shoots may have the building playing a different character. With the filming taking place inside the meeting rooms on the third floor, there wasn't much to see but the crane-mounted spotlights. Though things didn't get rolling until sunset, the lights could have easily helped create a daytime scene within. Evangeline Lilly was spotted at the location, as well as this actress, who took a smoke break out on the balcony. Look familiar? More photos from today's shoot can be found here. Lost was at the YWCA on Monday morning, too, similarly secluded from passers-by. But I did see Jorge Garcia and Matthew Fox making their way across the street. Spotting them together has got fan gears spinning. Since it seems unlikely Hurley and Jack met prior to the crash of Oceanic Flight 815, chances are they were filming one of the promised "flash forwards." But, we'll have to wait until next year to find out for sure. Source: Hawaii Blog

10/02 - Executive producer and co-creator Damon Lindelof said the fourth season will continue "to answer and ask a lot of questions." But, he added, "season four is going to be a whole new show in a lot of ways. We're really excited with what we're doing and hope that it'll offer as many surprises as the finale did." Among the spoilers Lindelof revealed: "Michael is coming back. Definitely. As for Walt, we've always known Malcolm was going to grow faster than we could shoot the show. And we planned for it. Trust us. Please trust us." The show's producers have already figured out what they will do with the mysterious character of Jacob, who was introduced at the end of season three. Picking his words carefully, executive producer Carlton Cuse said, "Yes, we do know how Jacob will be depicted. Notice the careful wording of my answer. And no, Jacob did not appear before he was met by Locke." Cuse also declined to say whether an actor had been chosen to portray the character. Flashbacks will continue to explain the backgrounds of some of the characters, but there will also be glimpses into the future, the producers said. The producers said that it is inevitable that the time-bending story of Lost will continue to use looks both backward and forward. "It's absolutely inevitable, not to migrate completely away from flashbacks, but at least to find a new paradigm for storytelling that changed up the nature of the show," Cuse said. "Moving forwards, you'll get a mix. Every week will hopefully be a guessing game as to not just who will be focused on, but when we're focusing on them. Flash-forwards will be a part of season four, yes." The reverberations of the death of Charlie Hieronymus Pace, played by Lord of the Rings's Dominic Monaghan, at the end of the last season will inevitably continue at the beginning of season four. "The reverberation of that death echoes right into the premiere of season four," Lindelof said. Source: Sci Fi Wire

12/31 - [1 more person will make it off the island but won't be considered an Oceanic 6. That person will either be Locke, Michael, Walt, Claire, Aaron, Cindy or Vincent.] Source: Lost Spoilers

12/27 - The action picks up where May's finale left off, as the castaways begin the process of leaving the island, courtesy of a mysterious rescue squad (which includes Fisher Stevens and Jeremy Davies). To say complications ensue would be an understatement. "The new group is dangerous, so everyone is in a mad scramble to survive," Michael Emerson (Others leader Ben) tells Us, adding, "A threat from the oustide can breed unlikely alliances. Prepare to see character glimpses into the past and future -- and the return of Walt and Michael. "Some people get off the island, like Jack and Kate, but deals have been made that leave them with a mix of guilt and denial," says Emerson. Spoiler? Of the eight episodes in the can, he has yet to film any scenes off the island, which may signify a bad end for Ben. Source: US Weekly

12/26 - Rescue arrives, in the form of Not Penny's Boat, but seeing as how it's Lost, that's not all it's cracked up to be. This year's new crop of characters are the boaties, played by a crackerjack team of actors including Jeremy Davies, Rebecca Mader, Jeff Fahey and Ken Leung. Meanwhile, the newly possible flash-forwards will reveal shocking fates (not to mention some shocking allegiances) for the survivors. In the first few eps, look for lots of hostage situations, a division of the Losties between Team Jack and Team Locke, interrogations, lies (Ben) and a couple of shootings. Just another day on the beach! Source: Kristin on E!Online

12/26 - [There will be at least two deaths in the first eight episodes.] Source: Ask Ausiello @ TV Guide

12/16 - Lost Spoilers resumed the spoilers released in the Season 3 DVD commentaries: Horace Goodspeed and Olivia are important to the DHARMA story, and we can expect to see more of them in the future. Speaking of volcanoes, there is one on the island. Damon says it will be of "seismic importance" (pun very much intended.) Annie is an extremely important part of the island's backstory, and it is a planned chapter to come. Annie is more important than the Goodspeeds or the volcano. We have not seen Ben's motivation for his role in the purge, but we will. Source: Lost's Season 3 DVD

12/13 - As Kristin recently revealed in her last post, she asks who are the Oceanic 6? [...] Well the Oceanic 6 are the 6 people who get off the Island and are semi-famous. [highlight if you want to know who they are... The 6 are Sun, Jin, Kate, Jack, Hurley and Sayid.] Source: Lost Spoilers

12/13 - [Carlton] Cuse also fessed up about the person in the coffin seen at the very end of season three. Was it someone we've seen before? "Yes," he said without elaboration. Damon Lindelof, a co-creator and producer, was asked about why the expectations set up for the return of young Walt (Malcolm David Kelley) never seemed to materialize in the third season. Will he be seen again? "Oh, you'll see him again. But you're going to have to be patient. Sorry." [...] Cuse teased, "The Jack/Kate/Sawyer triangle is something that will go on for a long time. And who says they don't have a chance?" Source: Sci Fi Wire

10/21 - News of a location shoot at the old Honolulu Brewing Co. building on Queen Street, last seen in a flashback for the late, great Charlie Pace. News of a military camp of some kind set up on the slopes of Diamond Head, with soldiers made to do sit-ups in the mud (courtesy industrial water trucks). Tantalizing reports of several days' worth of shooting at the Others' camp out at the YMCA's Camp Erdman, with several actors sighted - some we've never seen in Othersville, and some we've not seen anywhere in a long time.

10/21 - A couple of weeks ago they were filming a shouting match in the jungle involving Sawyer, Jack, Kate, Hurley, Claire and Davies (a new character). So in some episode, early in the season, the radio tower team and the beach party will be reunite. Source: Lost Spoilers

10/17 - Reliable sources close to Lost confirm to me exclusively that Andrea Roth is joining the cast in a recurring role. Details about her character are being kept under wraps. Source: The Ausiello Report

10/14 - Fisher Stevens is joining ABC's Lost in the recurring role of Minkowski, a mysterious character alluded to several times toward the end of last season and ultimately heard over the phone when Jack made contact with Not Penny's Boat. The name Minkowski, the Hollywood Reporter notes, could be an allusion to German mathematician Hermann Minkowski, whose concept of a fourth dimension - time - played into Einstein's theory of special relativity.

05/21 - A series regular who has been on the series since the first season will not be back next season (season five). According to inside sources, this person's contract has been put into a holding deal and the plan at this point is to have him or her return for season six. It is not Jack or Sawyer. It's a she. Remember how I told you that time traveling and teleporting is most definitely happening? Well, let's just say that it's going to be happening on a much larger scale in the coming seasons. Source: Kristin on E!Online

05/07 - Sawyer doesn't die. He's alive. On the Island. [Locke is alive on the Island in the future.] Source: Kristin on E!Online

04/23 - Francois Chau is on the island! This may suggest that he has a large part in a flash sequence, or that he is doing the orientation film work for The Orchid set, which leads us to rumor number 2. Source: DocArzt's Lost Blog

04/23 - We will find out more back story as to why the late Libby was in the same mental hospital with Hurley, prior to the plane crash, and presumably after she gave her boat to Desmond for the race. [We will] at some point catch up with Emma and Zack, the two kids from the tail section group of survivors who were kidnapped by the Others in season 2's "The Other 48 Days." To the question of whether we'll ever see Katey Sagal's Helen character (Locke's former flame) again, Darlton indicated that they hoped so. To the question of whether the DeGroots, the hirsute couple who founded the Dharma Initiative, are still alive, Cuse and Lindelof paused a bit and then pressed for more specificity on the time frame of the question. As of where the time line of "Lost" will be when the series returns on April 24, Darlton would only say: "One of them is." Lindelof let it be known that in a recent episode when one of the castaways asked Ben if he knew what the island's smoke monster really was and Ben responded that he didn't know -- big lie. "Ben was lying about the smoke monster," Lindelof said. Source: Variety

04/23 - Fans will also see a new Dharma station called the Orchid - all three levels of it - that might shed more light on the Island's time-warping properties. Peripheral faves like Penelope, ageless Other Richard Alpert (Nestor Carbonell), and off-Island mystery man Matthew Abaddon (Lance Reddick) will pop up. But due to the strike, two breakout freighter newbies - frazzled physicist Daniel Faraday (Jeremy Davies) and ghost-whispering hustler Miles Straume (Ken Leung) - won't be getting their spotlights until next year. Source: Entertainment Weekly

04/23 - The four-toed statue "will be back on the show," says Damon [Lindelof]. "People will learn who built it and why it has four toes." Source: Kristin on E!Online

02/26 - Season 4 is about who gets off the island and the fact that they need to get back. Season 5 is about why they need to get back, and season 6 is about what happens when they get back. Source: New York Post

Oh, please. The fourth season was the best of the show. And that's not just my opinion, that's the opinion of the majority. You may not like the characters but the quality of the show has not gone down at all.

And for me, the characters are just as interesting as they've ever been. Not only that, the writing is better, the mythology is coming together, and it just continues to get more intriguing.

By far the best show on the air.

Lost is a weird show for me, I still watch, most weeks. I'm still curious, but I've completely given up on having any of it make sense. I'm sure it might in the end. But right now, things just keep getting 'weirder'. And I never get that 'omg I have to know what happens' kind of feeling anymore. It's kind of just 'oh jeez, that was totally insane'. I still care about a few of the characters, but not as many as I used to, but there are some. And if I miss a few episodes here and there, I don't really care, I figure it'll hopefully all make sense in the end anyway. But yeah, I've 'passed' on a few episodes this season, in favor of taping Supernatural and watching Scrubs or just watching Supernatural, for that bit they were on at the same time.

And for me, the characters are just as interesting as they've ever been. Not only that, the writing is better, the mythology is coming together, and it just continues to get more intriguing.

By far the best show on the air.

The opinion of the majority still equals that - an opinion.
Just because you love the show, doesn't mean it is good.
I loved season 1, got bored of season 2, turned off season 3 and came back for season 4 because I was promised it would be better - it is not.
Granted it is better than its previous season, maybe even the 2nd but the complete pointlessness of this show has gone on far too long.

Most of the viewers that I know in real life that are watching it are doing so simply because they have to believe that the ending was worth it - though I don't think they will last the season themselves.

I have far more interesting things going on than to watch a show that has revelled in its own intelligence and now believes itself to be superior than its medium. I have no time for it, its actors or where it goes in the future.

If you love it, fair game, its not a comment on you that I dislike it, but it is not the best show on TV, not by a long way.

Alright, you don't like it...that's fine. But pointless? Lost is no more pointless than any other TV show or movie.

Ohh, I thought we were dealing in personal opinion.

This show is pointless because it has no point for me.

The shows I watch and enjoy, they have a point, they entertain me, Lost does not.

This show is, as I have said before, going to be a show studied in creative writing classes around the world for years! The lesson will be that as an author/writer never prove to your audience/fan that you are smarter then them. Give the fan the 'illusion' they are smart but put the twist in so as not to insult their intelligence but give them the joy of being fooled by a good ending/story.
Season 3 is where a lot of people gave up on the show as it got just too damn complicated to follow and there was too many biblical, mythological, and physic theories thrown at the viewer without the hint of any anwers to keep the fans interest. In other words it insulted the viewers intelligence.
I liked season 4 as we got 'some' answers and very few new intellectual theories. Some of those answers I actually figured out so my intelligence ego was stroked by the writers. This season, IMO, was story driven to set up the last two seasons but fans are still mad at the writers for the season 3 insult.
Is it the best show on tv? No. Is it the worst show on tv? No. Is it the most controversial, mind-f**king show on tv that compels you to throw the remote thru your tv? Yes. All I can hope for is the ride is going to be worth it when it is all over.

Actually I thought season three gave quite a bit of hints and clues...and other than the first pod of six episodes most people loved the second part.

Once the show is over, not only do I think it will be studied as much as Buffy and The X-Files, I think it decades from now it will still be making lists of the best shows in the history of television. It's a very polarizing show that I think people will be talking about for years after it's over.

Right now Pry I would have to say Rescue Me. This show never fails to push the envelope and no subject is off limits. The camera work is very eye popping at times. And the acting makes it feel like your in the room with them. I think the idle banter between firefighters during a call is so hilarious. It's like so sorry fighting a fire or responding to a car accident is getting in the way of your conversation about trying to figure out how to get the best basketball player in your house or how a date went.
I don't have the movie network so I get the edited version of Dexter. Wow who knew you could think a serial killer would be a loveable guy? This one gets a big creativity nod and Michael C. Hall plays the part so damn good. I have only seen season 1 so far but I find it amazing that he hasn't been caught yet and I think that is what gives the show that added edge for the fan.
A show that has a habit of putting that twist on the end of the show that makes me happy I was fooled after thinking I had it all figured out is Medium.
