I’ve never seen any LOST promo in the States as creative as this one, which has the Flight 815 survivors dancing in slow motion on the beach, with odd expressions, decked out in dressy, but tattered, outfits. It’s surreal, like a dream sequence. At the same time it manages to suggest many of the relationships that were then yet to unfold in Season 1:
And here’s a version with some spooky narration:

In this short out-take, Christian Shephard breaks into the barracks. For a dead guy, he’s good with an axe!
More of these deleted scenes will be available on the Season 5 DVD

More fun with conspiracy theories as the Mysteries of the Universe series continues:
Dharma Chicken Soup goes astray. Alvar Hanso is rich. Gerald de Groot conducts strange experiments in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Octogonal logos show a Communist Chinese influence. Olivia does not wish to be contacted. Mysteries of the Universe receives nefarious phone calls. Church staff members are missing. Eloise Hawking refuses requests for an interview. Daniel has a different last name.
“Has another organization secretly taken over the Dharma Initiative?”

Detail from Season 6 promo poster
That’s just one detail of a small area of the poster. See the whole poster on TVOvermind: monster-sized blow-up of LOST promo poster.
It looks as if everyone who has ever been a major cast member is on there, with one notable exception. (Hint: Name starts with W and ends with T.)
The biggest mystery is why is Locke facing away from us when everyone else is facing forward?
Update 11/19/09: ABC just announced that LOST Season 6 will be on Tuesday nights.

Original post below:
ABC will be cancelling Eastwick after 13 episodes. That will leave a 10 PM Wednesday night slot open, which seems perfect for LOST.
But E! Online reports that ABC is thinking of moving Ugly Betty into that time slot in order to make Wednesdays solid nights of comedy.
P.S. Eastwick is one of my favorite guilty pleasures. Though it’s not a brilliant show like LOST, it’s a lot of fun, with exuberant acting, a dab of suspense, and more strong women characters per square inch than the vast majority of shows on TV.
This may be a lost cause (no pun intended), but if you like Eastwick too, please consider signing the petition to save the show. Fans of the show are also trying to get #SaveEastwick onto Twitter’s Trending Topics list.
