First, the good news: You can start seeing mini episodes of Lost online starting Monday!
EW.com reports that two- to three-minute vignettes that were supposed to debut on Verizon wireless customers’ phones will instead begin airing online.
The vignettes are being called the “Missing Pieces” and “The Watch” is the first to go. It focuses on Jack.
The micro-stories aren’t deleted scenes  they’re newly-shot material that fits into the larger Lost saga; it’s up to the fans to figure out where they belong.
Of course, this is exactly the sort of thing that this entire writer’s strike is about, ironically.
As for the abbreviated season of Lost  just eight episodes have been filmed, the show’s exec producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse have said  ABC appears to be ready to air it s tarting in February.
Lindelof and Cuse have been on the picket lines and have said the eighth hour ends in a cliffhanger  but not a season-ending sort of cliffhanger, rather a mid-season sort of cliffhanger.
The network, however, owns the show, and has the legal right to air new episodes every third Wednesday at noon if they so desire.
Oh, and this, too: Evangeline Lilly (Kate) and Dominic Monahagn (the now-deceased Charlie) apparently have broken up.
There’s a shock. They’re not in close quarters in Hawaii anymore and they broke up? Honestly, that was just a weird pairing anyhow. Monahagn seems to have gotten over it well, having been seen canoodling very publicly with another woman.
