Catch up with ‘Lost’

December
27

You know, you take one measly week off around the holidays, and out comes the biggest “Lost” news in six months: The show is finally back for its 8-episode run on Jan. 31!

My pal Amy graciously blogged on this super-duper scoop already, but here’s some more info for those (sadly misguided) folks who haven’t yet caught on to the fabulousness that is “Lost.”

ABC has put together a special 8-minute-15-second trailer called—appropriately—“Lost in 8:15” that recaps the last three seasons. (Of course, Lost-philes know that the plane crash survivors were on Oceanic Flight 815, and 8 and 15 are two of the mystery numbers that may have brought our castaways to the island.)

Oddly, the recap serves best to remind regular viewers what happened over the last three years; I imagine that this trailer would cause the heads of anyone who hasn’t seen “Lost” to explode like the hatch in Season 1 (and 2, come to think of it).

Information overload, my friends.

But if you can’t wait another month—I know I can’t—here’s what Kristen from E! had to say on the upcoming mini-season:

Boy, they weren’t kidding when they called the season-three finale “Through the Looking Glass.” In the eight produced episodes of season four, the show begins to look back at the Island, and the survivors of Oceanic 815, from distant vantage points far removed in both time and space from the crash-era story. Meanwhile, 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 (following on the heels of the tailies and the Others) 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!

Can’t wait! And if you can’t either, just know that all of the photos on this posting are stills from the premiere episode—interpret as you will! (From the looks of the photo below, it’s not looking good for Ben…)

Until next month (or the next scoopy-scoop!), “Lost” fans…
