I finally found the premiere of the last season of Lost. It’s almost bittersweet. So many of my shows are done at the end of this season, so I better enjoy them while they are still here.

The season premiere of Lost will be on February 2nd, 2010.  It will air on Tuesdays this season. I think it’s going to be hard to remember but I’m sure that I will survive this change. There will be a re-cap episode and then a new 2 hour episode. I can’t wait to find out what happens next…okay I kinda know but I won’t tell you.

I had to post this picture of the Lost cast too because I had to bring up my favorite game around the house, “How many cast members from (insert show here) appeared on Oz (the TV show)?” I have even started compiling a list because I never know when I might need it. So for Lost so far I have Echo and Michael that were on Oz. It’s a fun game to pass the time. Try it with almost TV show. It works.

I was so excited when my Entertainment Weekly came in the mail! Matthew Fox and Evangeline Lilly are on the cover. I have been looking forward to the new season to start already, but I am having a hard time not getting lost with all the time shifting they are doing. This won’t deter me though because I can’t abandon a show I have seen every episode of since the beginning.

Here are some highlights from the interview in the magazine:

Evangeline Lilly on the whole Jack VS Sawyer love interest: ”What I’ve noticed is that the audience tends to root for the coupling that gets the most screen time — and right now, what they’re seeing is Kate and Jack.”

Matthew Fox on love affairs-with ratings: ”That’s someone going, ‘People love romance, so just turn the buttons and dial it up,”’ complains Fox. ”Look, I understand that. But it has to be f—ing credible. Our world doesn’t lend itself to conventional romance. Yearning? Yes. Desire? Yes. Passion? Yes. And when those things play out in the context of survival s— that’s gotta get done, where people’s lives are f—ing at stake — that’s cool. But romance? I haven’t always bought it for Jack and Kate, and I haven’t always bought it for Kate and Sawyer. The show’s too intense for that.”

Matthew on Jack’s pull to the island: ”I’ve always believed part of what was destroying him was his lack of physical proximity to the Island,” says Fox. ”He is fated to do something on the Island, and he has fought that with every fiber of his body, and in doing that, the Island is destroying him from afar. When he finds himself back in this place, he’s wide-eyed and alert. He knows he’s in the path of his own destiny.”

Matthew on this season’s new twists: ”It feels very different from what Lost has felt like in the past, but in a really good way,” says the actor, sporting neatly parted hair and some dangling iPod earbuds. ”There will be many, many answers, lots of things from past seasons that left the audience thinking, ‘That’s never going to pay off’ — but it does, in really cool ways that make you go ‘Holy s—!’ The season has a real feeling of things coming together, and it builds a groundswell of momentum for the end of the show.”

More of the interview and photo shoot…

Evangeline on taking chances: ”I respect that [the writers] do things that could potentially alienate parts of their audience, because that means they are being true to their story and not being manipulated by outside pressure.”

Matthew on Lost’s legacy: ”People will remember it the way they want to remember it,” he says. ”What I will remember is that Lost was one of the most innovative, risk-taking, smartest shows ever. That’s how I want to remember it. And I think it deserves that.”

Can you believe Lost has already been on for four seasons? I can’t. And now the first official trailer for Season Five has been released but there is still no premiere date. I am hearing that it’s in February so let’s hope this is true. Enjoy the trailer…I can’t wait for it to come back!

I love this scan of Matthew Fox from Loaded magazine…and on the bottom right hand corner Matthew tells a secret about Lost…so if you don’t want to know don’t read any more.

“I’m not supposed to tell you this, but at the end of the show we’re all rescued and and move to Bognor.”

Uh oh…someone is going to be in trouble.

Lost kinda ticked me off in it’s season finale…not only did it take a year for them to answer the question of who was in the coffin. It totally confused me more. I think that episode had a lot of holes in it which I was really surprised by. But, with that all being said what is in store for Season 5, SPOILERS AHEAD…

Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse recently took the stage of the ABC Press Tour and spilled a couple of Lost Season 5 secrets.

Damon says that they are definitely working on how they will manage the split casts next season… what with the Oceanix Six off island and the remaining losties still stuck! “We have that [issue] intensely in mind,” Damon says. He says that they find that separating characters geographically and emotionally is a valuable storyline tool for them, but they’re aware that they can only do that for so long before audiences get impatient.

Damon continued speaking about Season 5, saying “This is a tricky year for us. This is like The Two Towers [portion of The Lord of the Rings saga] … it links us to the final season.” They know what they’ve wanted to do in the final season for a long time, but it’s a challenge to make THIS season engaging and exciting. “The worst thing we could ever do on the show is for the show to be boring … If we’re going to be bad, we’re going to be spectacularly bad.”

Damon and Carlton also chatted a big about Harold Perrineau’s recent outspoken ideas regarding Michael’s death. “The show has to be an equal-opportunity murderer … We’ve killed a lot of white people. And I can almost guarantee we will be killing more white people this season,” Damon relates.

Hmmm, I can only imagine what is in store… Can’t wait! But, I hope they pick a fast forward or a flashback…I was so obessed I couldn’t watch the show until I knew what it was.
