Here is the latest Ausiello ramblings. To put everyone out of their misery the answer to his "cryptic clue" is
"Someone who was on the plane, but didn't have a ticket"
Here are the rest of his ramblings.
Question: I had a dream about Ask Ausiello. I dreamt that this week's edition included lots of info on Lost and a bunch of other shows I don't care about. — Jenni
Ausiello: Wow, that is seriously creepy. I'm getting goose bumps as I dictate this to my assistant type this. C'mon, 'fess up: Did your "dream" also include Dionne Warwick and a $2.99/minute surcharge? No one's here to judge you. Laugh at you? Yes. Judge? Never. Regardless, your info is tack on, beginning with your prediction of Lost scoop. I have it on good authority that someone we thought was killed in the season finale will turn up very much alive in the Jan. 31 premiere.
Question: "Someone who was on the beach, but that's been gone a season?"— Melissa
Ausiello: Nah. But thanks for playing!
Question: Team Dalrton promised they'd deal with the four-toed statue this season on Lost. Any sign of it in the eight episodes they shot? — Robert
Ausiello: Well, considering that I haven't seen the eight episodes yet, I can't say for sure. What I can say for sure is that other interesting "out of place" objects will turn up, both on and off the island.
