Lost Untangled 6×14 The Candidate

I was worried about this Lost Untangled, afraid they would try to make a joke out of the very sad event — but it was okay, they handled it well.

You have to watch this:

This has got to be the best thing that the “Lost Untangled” crew has ever done, with the possible exception of the Season 5 Untangled Finale Event — which is where the dancing statue seen in the video above originated. The music for both videos was done by the same group, the recap band Previously on Lost.

Official video podcast — Prop Master Rob Kyker, part 2

The Prop Master is back, showing off more cool items, including Claire’s squirrel baby and Jacob’s wine bottle.

The video also adds comic-book-style dialogue bubbles to clips from the show, for no apparent reason, other than, perhaps, end-of-the-show giddiness. Whatever the reason, the comic-book styling is cute:

Official video podcast — tour of the sets

Executive Producer Jean Higgins, who I don’t think we’ve seen before in a podcast or panel discussion, takes us on a tour of some of the indoor sets — the police station where sideways Sawyer and Miles work, Jack’s hospital, and Widmore’s submarine:

Lost Untangled 6×13 The Last Recruit

I think these are getting funnier each week, becoming less about untangling and more about being goofy:

Official video podcast — behind the scenes with the prop master

Rob Kyker, the prop master on LOST, shows off some cool props that were used earlier this season: the ankh in Hurley’s guitar case, the hour glass in the Temple’s pool-of-doom room, the scale with the black and white rocks in Flocke’s cave, Sawyer’s bottle of Dharma whiskey, and Jacob’s spinning wheel.

Official ABC Podcasts

I’ve been catching up on some of the official podcasts —

March 25 audio podcast

Darlton, punchy after having just finished writing a draft of the finale, rehashed Ab Aeterno, prehashed The Package, considered the possibility that Flocke was not evil — and revealed the title of the finale — on the March 25, 2010 audio podcast.

March 30 video podcast

In this short video podcast, Darlton answered a fan question about whether the fish that Jacob was cooking in the Season 5 finale, The Incident, was, ahem, a red herring.

I love the idea that it was a kind of visual pun, and in fact, someone left a comment on this blog back in September putting forth the “red herring” idea — an idea I found really funny at the time and still do. Alas, in this podcast, Darlton deny that was their intent. But the whole podcast is so jokey, I don’t know if they can really be believed:

April 1 audio podcast

Darlton briefly rehashed The Package, talked about who might win in a Flocke-Widmore showdown, prehashed Happily After Ever, and answered questions about Richard Alpert’s hair, the squirrel baby, and, of all things, grammar. April 1, 2010 audio podcast

April 8 video podcast

In this video podcast, Nestor Carbonell gave a tour of the set of the Black Rock. He talked about how they filmed the scenes there in Ab Aeterno — how they created the illusion of the smoke monster, and how they got the boar, who wasn’t hungry, to gnaw on a body (don’t worry, it was just a dummy). Very interesting!
