LOST: Interview with Charlotte


One of the new actors in season 4 was Charlotte, the red-head that we first saw dig up a polar bear skeleton in the desert. In an interview with IGN, she discusses what it’s like to be on a new show, what it’s like to be in Hawaii and how much the producers let her know about the show’s secrets:

Oh god, nothing! None of us know anything! It’s funny when people ask, “What do you guys do on your downtime in-between scenes? Do you all sit down and talk about the show?” I say, “No, none of us know anything. We’re all sitting there talking about the iPhone vs. the Blackberry,” you know what I mean? [Laughs] That’s about it.

LOST’s Dance With The Emmy Awards

If you were one of the producers of LOST, and you were told to pick ONE episode that best represents the show last year, what would you have selected to put in front of a panel of judges? Stumped? So were Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse. So, they put together their own panel.

Lindelof thinks, in any event, that assembling a panel to prejudge another panel’s reaction was a canny move.

“(ABC Studios) put together a group of people who don’t watch Lost, and screened a couple of episodes for them,” Lindelof explained. “And they were able to determine for us which they thought was the best and most self-contained, and we moved forward with their selection. We’re really grateful, because they invested a lot of time and energy in this.”

The panel’s choice? The Constant, written by Lindelof and Cuse, which aired on Feb. 28.

I think that’s a very good choice. Let’s hope it makes it!

There are many, many books on the list. If you’re looking for some summer reading, check ’em out!
