Another Great Interview with Cuse and Lindelof

There is another great article out their with the production team from ABC’s Lost. Cuse and Lindelof sat down with a bunch of TV reviewers, and Canada.com to answer some questions and spill the beans a bit on Lost. Again, they didn’t choose me, but they did ask a few questions that I would have gotten around to. Mr. Cuse and Mr. Lindelof, if you are reading this, I am available this summer for an interview.

For example:

I’M NOT DEAD YET
Death is real on Lost, but dying doesn’t necessarily mean the end of the character. Confused?
Cuse: “The good thing about Lost is that oftentimes being dead leads to more work on the show. Actually, you can kind of improve your standing in the cast by being killed. If in fact Danielle Rousseau (Mira Furlan) does prove to be dead, for example, that really doesn’t have much bearing in terms of us telling more of her story. We think her back story and how she came to the island is actually pretty interesting, and we’d love to tell that story at some point.”

LOCKE OR JACK — DISCUSS
In the season premiere, the castaways have to choose whether to follow man-of-faith and survivalist philosopher Locke (Terry O’Quinn) on a search for the answer to the island’s secrets, or stay with man-of-reason and university educated realist Jack Shephard (Matthew Fox) on the beach and wait for rescue.
Lindelof: “If I was just on the island and in the moment, I would go with Locke. Because he has the more salient argument. Remember, when Charlie (Dominic Monaghan) dies, he said, “These people are liars and are not here to save you.” It wouldn’t be so much that I was going with Locke as I was going away from Jack.

“What’s interesting, though, is when you see the show on TV and you watch the flash-forwards, you know that Jack is right because he’s going to get off the island because of the decisions he’s made. But what if you didn’t know he was going to get off the island? Who would you go with then? It’s a fascinating question.”
