Summary by: The ODI
In which we preview tonight's episode of Lost — the first of five installments to air over the next six weeks — with a cryptic bit or two from executive producers Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof.
This week, something special as we celebrate the return of Lost from its strike-induced spring break: We're going audiovisual with a video tease. Check out this clip, in which ''Darlton'' preview tonight's episode, ''The Shape of Things to Come,'' with a little help from friends Michael Emerson, Josh Holloway, and Jorge Garcia. (By the way, don't let the fact that I interviewed the producers on April Fool's Day scare you. Everything they say is legit. I think.)
To their tease, I would add this: ''The Shape of Things to Come'' also happens to be the title of a famed H.G. Wells book, which also spawned a movie written by the author called, more simply, Things to Come. When I asked the producers what the episode and Wells' work have in common, they said it basically boils down to one word:
Basra.
I leave it to you to investigate further for now. Tune in tomorrow for my recap, in which I'll offer my highly theoretical and mildly incoherent two cents.
