ausiello's spoilers

Question: Please tell us which Lost female might not make it through the season? -- Hippo
Ausiello: I'll do no such thing. Instead, I'll tell you that the mystery will be solved in the closing seconds of the Jan. 28 episode.


Question: Lost? Anything? -- Bia
Ausiello: Sawyer and a female character whose name isn't Kate will make out this season.

Question: Tonight's the night! Lost returns! I think that calls for some exclusive scoop! -- Sam
Ausiello: You'll get no argument from me! A Lost insider tells me that Team Darlton is very quietly looking for an actor to play a "younger Phillip Seymour Hoffman-type" for a smallish arc this season, and a much bigger one next. What does it all mean, Doc Jensen? "My guess is they want the Phillip Seymour Hoffman from Synecdoche, New York, because thematically, that trippy movie is very simpatico with Lost. I'm thinking he's some kind of Dharma mastermind, or maybe Jacob -- the true man behind the curtain directing the crazy stage play that is Lost." Once again, he took the words right out of my mouth! Speaking of Lost, I implore you to check out our award-worthy "Totally Lost" section, featuring (among other things) Doc J's exclusive, multi-part video Q&A with Team Darlton.
