Captain Gault is now a Vampire

2009-11-29T09:31:00.001Z

Thanks to TV Spoilers for the heads up.

Australia’s Sunday Telegraph confirms that Grant Bowler has joined the cast of True Blood for season 3. Bowler isn’t saying which character he’ll play, but he’s excited about the opportunity:

“Mate, it’s HBO and it’s the King … it’s the chance to work for an Oscar-winner [series creator Allan Ball] and alongside an Oscar-winner [Anna Paquin],” he said.

Bowler is currently co-starring on Ugly Betty as the dasterdly Connor Owens, the man who charmed even the scheming Wilhelmina. You may also recognize him as Captain Gault from Lost, which stars Carrie Preston’s hubby Michael Emerson. Bowler will be bi-coastal while filming True Blood in Los Angeles and Ugly Betty in New York, but it sounds like he’s up for the challenge

Top 10 TV series of the decade - Lost No.9

2009-11-28T09:28:00.003Z

Thanks to DV30302 for the heads up.

9. LOST
* ABC, 2004-present
Part adventure, part mystery and part sci-fi, "Lost" defies convenient characterization. Supposedly conceived as a blend of "Lord of the Flies," "Survivor," "Gilligan's Island" and "Cast Away," the series developed a unique mythology and an unconventional rhythm that mixed stories of the present with those from the past and future. Creators Jeffrey Lieber, J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof created one of TV's biggest casts, then made each character utterly fascinating.

Damon Lindelof Article on Season 6 Promotion and Lost University

2009-11-19T20:05:00.004Z

Thanks to Kevin for the heads up on this article from Damon.

Nrama: Are you in the home stretch of Lost right now?
Lindelof: It doesn't quite feel like the home...in the grand scheme of things, we have nine more episodes to write, having written a hundred and, you know, ten episodes at this point, it's relatively the home stretch, but it feels like we're in the weeds as they say in the TV business.

Nrama: Is it true that they're not going to show any previews before the season starts?
Lindelof: That is the marketing strategy that we are trying to impose upon our masters. Well, I can't unequivocally say that we'll be able to hold the embargo up until the actual premiere, but it's pretty cool that we're not showing anything as late as November, so we'll see...I think once the show starts, once we're back on, then we'll start showing people what we're up to, but I think even a single scene from the show would tip what it is we're doing this year. What it is we're doing this year is different from what we've done in other years.

Nrama: You've said you're done with time travel. The whole season of Lost and Star Trek, you're done with time travel.
Lindelof: I was just being cranky. [laughs] No, between Trek and Lost, you know, the amount of times that I said, 'paradox' in a given day was way more than anybody should ever say, 'paradox' in a given day. So I think that, Lost wouldn't be Lost if the idea of time travel, and by that I mean, the show jumps around in time, it's non-linear story telling, you kind of have to do flashes of light and dropping into World War II...that stuff we did in season five, and it was a lot of fun. And thank god we got out without causing any major paradoxes.

One of the great things about the last season of the show is that a lot of the writers are beginning to feel the way that we felt in season one. The idea of we're kind of returning to the same kind of storytelling that kind of put us on the map in the first place, and resolving some of these mysteries that people have been...this has got to be a record for how much patience people have. But the idea that we're trying to answer some of these questions, you know, create this incredible nostalgia, especially when you're doing it through the characters. And the actors who were there in the very beginning. So it's pretty cool. Theoretically.

Nrama: You talked about resolving Lost mysteries. Will one or two remain unresolved for people to debate ever after?
Lindelof: I think that there are some Lost mysteries that we're not even aware are mysteries. That's the thing. People ask us questions and I'm like, 'What are you talking about?' Like, 'Are we ever going to find out who murdered Scott?' And I was like, 'Ethan murdered him.' And they're like, 'Well, but did he?' I'm like, 'Yes! Yes he did!' So for the mysteries that we acknowledge as mysteries, they will be answered. But then there are mysteries that should never be solved. Then there are things like the midichlorian issue, which is essentially, was anyone really saying, 'How does the Force work?' You know? We just sort of accepted that it works. So I think that there are some mysteries like, 'Why is the island and island?' that aren't mysteries to me, because that's what it is.

Nrama: Now I've been told to ask you about something on the Season 5 Blu-ray called, “Lost University”.
Lindelof: Our guys have cooked up, I think, a really cool course. There are certain areas, like Physics, where you can really educate yourself looking at the show and prepare yourself for what's to come. We've always looked at Lost as a potentially collegiate experience, which is to say, if you want to get your masters degree backwards and forwards...but you can just sort of like, cruise through and get your B.A. And I think people are now starting their own fraternities and sororities in Lost U but once you get the DVD and go online and you sign up for some courses, hopefully the show will make a little more sense than it does now. We acknowledge that it's not the easiest thing to watch in the world.

Nrama: So there will be some hints about the next season in there?
Lindelof: In “Lost University”? Hints...I think there will be sort of a, 'You might want to go back and review this.' It's sort of like when a teacher tells you, 'There might be a pop quiz tomorrow, and if there is, you might want to read chapters nine, ten and twelve.' It's going to be that kind of experience, I hope.

Elizabeth Mitchell Interview with IF Magazine

2009-11-17T20:26:00.002Z

Thanks to Sluky for the heads up.

The actress talks about battling aliens, her time on LOST and her love for FIREFLY and STAR TREK

“Oh, God, no!” she laughs. “No, I’d never been happier than when I was on LOST. No, I was asked to leave LOST. I would never have asked to leave, not in a million years. [Moving back to the mainland from Hawaii, where LOST is filmed] was pretty sudden, so it was hard to leave. I had to pack everything up. But I’m an actor, this is what I do, so I was fine – sad but fine.”

LOST message boards have run fiery and icy about Juliet ever since the character appeared. Mitchell says she’s read some posts. “I’ve read some gorgeous stuff," she adds. "Of course, I’ll read eight gorgeous things and then one ‘I just hate her, I don’t care what other people think.’ And then I want to go, ‘Why do you hate her? [laughs] I like her.’ But [there isn’t as much board perusal] as you might think. I try not to let that in my life."

Does Mitchell know whether she’ll be back on LOST in its final season – more to the point, is she allowed to say what she knows? “They have all of their storylines done,” Mitchell says of the LOST writers. “They know exactly what they want to do. They’ve told me, I just can’t say.”

If V generates the same sort of passionate fan base that LOST has, Mitchell is ready for it. “I love science-fiction fans," she notes. "I’m kind of a geeky person, so I love the minutiae.” She adds that she’s also good at following the intricate plots on both series. “I’ve got one of those weird minds that holds onto all the pertinent details, especially where I’m concerned. Maybe I’m a narcissist, but anything that has to do with my character, I really keep close track of."

J.J. Abrams Will Not Be Building His 'Dark Tower'

2009-11-13T11:36:00.001Z

Pretty sad news, at least for me and I know a lot of you were looking forward to this...

It coulda been great! J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof — two of the key dudes behind "Lost" — were set to adapt Stephen King's sci-fi/fantasy opus, "The Dark Tower," for the big screen.

Such a seamless fit between material and filmmakers — it coulda be great, but it ain't gonna happen, as Abrams himself told MTV News' Josh Horowitz recently. "The 'Dark Tower' thing is tricky," he said. "It's such an important piece of writing. The truth is that Damon and I are not looking at that right now."

This only confirms what Abrams previously said to USA Today in an October interview. "You'll be hard-pressed to find a huger fan of 'The Dark Tower' than me, but that's probably the reason that I shouldn't be the one to adapt it," he revealed. "After working six years on 'Lost,' the last thing I want to do is spend the next seven years adapting one of my favorite books of all time. I'm such a massive Stephen King fan that I'm terrified of screwing it up. I'd do anything to see those movies written by someone else. My guess is they will get made because they're so incredible. But not by me."

That's an abrupt about-face for these guys. As late as last May, Lindelof told MTV News that he was still gung-ho about the project, though he did seem to be a little bit wary following the blowback from Zack Snyder's efforts to adapt "Watchmen."

"Having seen Zack go through what he went through on 'Watchmen' in terms of saying where can I digress from the material, I just get headaches thinking about changing anything," Lindelof said at the time.

Elizabeth Mitchell Discusses Being Green

2009-11-13T11:06:00.003Z

Here is a small snippet from a new Elizabeth Mitchell Interview where she talks about how she feels it is easy to be Green.

Thanks to Holly Greenwood from Greenwala.com once again for the heads up.

NOTE: The article discusses some spoilers about her character Juliet, but nothing new.

Elizabeth Mitchell's character is a composite that didn't exist in the original V, "So I've been given a little bit of a gift in not having to follow in any footsteps," said the actress, who lives in eco-friendly Seattle when not shooting the series in Vancouver. "My husband and I share one car, we ride our bikes, we recycle, I buy things fresh from the market, where I bring my own bags. It's just what everybody does. It's very easy to be green.

Evangeline Lilly Says Adoptions Could Help Save the Planet

2009-11-09T23:54:00.001Z

Thanks to Holly Greenwood from Greenwala.com for the heads up!

I am a LOST fan, like Evangeline Lilly and I know she believes in all natural products and saving the environment. However, now we know she is worried about the planet and over population so much that she confirms she thinks some people should stop having babies and adopt. For some this might be an extreme comment, but countries with large populations, this is part of the solution for population control and is a common reason that some people even adopt.

She discusses adoptions but also the desire to have her own child in the article below.

What do you think!? Here is the full article:

Evangeline Lilly thinks people have to stop having babies to save the planet.

The actress - who is been dating her co-star Dominic Monaghan since they met on the set of 'Lost' in 2004 - believes people are procreating at an alarming rate and must slow down their baby-making or adopt to "protect" the Earth.

It makes sense not to add to the population problem

She said: "For a very long time, I have had intentions to adopt. We have a huge population problem on Earth. We're not going to protect the Earth the way we need to protect it if we don't stop making so many babies."

Best TV Pilots: Series Premieres That Made Our Jaws Drop

2009-11-09T14:42:00.002Z

Thanks to Ryan for the heads up on this article from AOL that list Lost as the Best Pilot Ever.

This much-copied pilot (exhibit A; 'FlashForward') displayed lavish visual flair (those expensive special effects, that vivid plane crash and aftermath, those lush Hawaiian locations), but all in the service of character and story. The episode introduced us to more than a dozen major characters (and, via their flashbacks, to the show's storytelling strategy), and it left us with all kinds of intriguing questions about, not just what was going to happen to these survivors, but what kind of show we were watching in the first place. Best. Pilot. Ever.

500 Rads - New J.J. Abrams Movie

2009-11-07T00:36:00.003Z

Thanks to The ODI for the heads up.

With their now expected levels of secrecy and sneakiness, it seems that JJ Abrams and Bad Robot are already deep into bringing a mysterious movie called 500 Rads to the screen. At least that’s if it will be called 500 Rads and this isn’t just some kind of hazy-fantazy codename.

The leaked information so far pegs the film at a sweet little $25 million budget and alleges that production will take place in Europe. The story was apparently formulated by Abrams who handed it off to Jeff Pinkner to write the screenplay, and now it seems that some other scribes from the Bad Robot mafia will be taking a pass too while Pinker gets busy at the Fringe again.

Seeing as their source has told them to expect 500 Rads to fall in the vein of both Cloverfield and 28 Days Later, and because they’ve researched enough to find out that Rads refers to radiation, Pajiba are speculating that this might be a zombie picture of some kind. I’m just thinking there’s video cameras involved.

My research into radiation has yielded little more of any definite use, though I can tell you that 500 Rads is the absorbed dose that will turn a guy sterile - a woman would need to be hit by 600 Rads - so there’s an off chance that Abrams and co. are playing with fertility sci-fi, ala Children of Men, ZPG and so on. Having said that, other sources I surfed to in my research told me that 500 Rads would be enough to kill you… well, I guess the dead are pretty sterile. I await the actual factuals from our well informed readership in the comments section below.

Seeing as there’s no director attached as yet, this could be a project Abrams himself decides to take ownership of. On the other hand, it probably won’t be and he’ll pull in somebody else.
