SPOILER ALERT: Before you read this post, turn off The Muppet Show on your monitor and watch Lost. 

Namaste! Lost returns from its halftime break—hope you had time to make a sandwich and hit the bathroom—with tonight’s episode, titled “Namaste,” which promises to be quite Dharma-heavy again. To kick off the pregame discussion, let’s talk about the impact of having so much of the story now set (seemingly for the duration, but you …

SPOILER ALERT: Before you read this post, buy some cord from the hardware store–no, don’t do that with it!–hook it up to your TV and watch last night’s Lost. 

For the last Lost Discussion Group, I solicited your thoughts on Locke’s death. Since tonight’s episode is “The Life and Death of Jeremy Bentham,” I will solicit them again. (I know a little about the episode from teaser clips ABC has posted for the press, but until time.com upgrades the blogs to handle embedded video–cough! cough!–I …

There’s a new promo for Lost / music video for The Fray’s “You Found Me,” containing old and new scenes from the series, which returns in January (along with Big Love, Flight of the Conchords, Battlestar Galactica, and it seems pretty much every other reason to watch television): …

I sort of, um, forgot to post LDG earlier in the day, so I’ll keep this brief. This will probably be the last Lost Discussion Group of the summer (at least, the last one not hosted by Robo-James), after which I think we’ll give LDG a rest for a while, so we may as well return to our tradition for one whole entire year and solicit …

Another tidbit from the Lost panel at last month’s Comic-Con to chew over this morning:

-Will Rousseau get a flashback? CC: “You will learn some more about Rousseau’s story. To use the word flashback might be disingenuous. Instead of flashbacks and flash forwards, we’re gonna do something different.” (This was the first of a few

…

We may be in the summer doldrums, but Comic-Con came along last week to give us a few more nuggets to chew on before LDG takes a well-earned fall vacation. I’ll start with the video screened at the Lost panel, since I haven’t linked it here yet:

The most important bit of information is, of course, that Marvin Candle / Pierre Chang …

A bit of housekeeping: I’ll probably wind down LDG, like last year, by the end of the summer–maybe even a bit sooner because (unlike last year) the season 4 finale didn’t set up any game-changer that made for a season’s worth of speculation. Hopefully, ComicCon—which my L.A. colleague Rebecca Winters Keegan will be reporting from for …

I realized after posting my Emmy reactions this morning that I mentioned not a word about Lost being nominated for best drama nor Michael Emerson for best supporting actor. So I decided to treat the omission as not a bug but a feature and to milk an entirely new post out of it. Let’s take a week away from the mythology and …

From this week’s Ask Ausiello (now relocated to Time’s sister publication/site, EW), Michael Ausiello shares a small bit of Lost dish:

Team Darlton is doing their annual “radio silence” thing, so Lost scoop is at a premium these days. Luckily, I managed to unearth this little morsel: John Terry (Christian) and Alan Dale (Widmore)
