The Ack Attack!

For a show that is so completely unpredictable, Lost’s writers have quite a few standbys that they always seem to fall back on. More endearing than tiresome, here are my favorite go-to moves Lost uses more often than not.

I know I’m not the only one who can’t hear a Patsy Cline song without thinking of Kate Austen.  Here’s a list of my 10 favorite musical moments (with links to the songs!) that have been used on Lost.

Last week we counted down the Top 10 Deaths. This week, we count down the villains that were responsible for many of those deaths!

And now the first in a series of Top 10’s I’ll be doing in the weeks leading up to the premiere of Lost on February 2, 2010 (61 days!!!)

First of all let me just say HAPPY LOST DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you’ve got a Livejournal account and you’ll be watching Lost at 10 p.m. EST, come hang out at my ongoing Lost post! It will be posted here a few minutes before the show begins. Make sure to bring your capslock.

• Remember those Lost theories we submitted last week to USA Today? They have been answered! Read each theory, then give it a grade to see what Damon and Carlton say about it. Snark is running high as Damon and Carlton react to fans’ ideas!!

  When presented with the “The island is stuck in 1988 theory”

  Lindelof: “What I love about this theory is that for some reason the island has remained locked in 1988 while the rest of the universe proceeds normally. It makes me wonder what happened in 1988 that this person wants this world to forever be 1988.”

  Cuse: “The person could be a Cyndi Lauper fan.”

  Lindelof: “I think she had already peaked. By ‘88, we’re talking about U2 and INXS. Just the idea that everybody on the island is in 1988 is pretty crazy.”

• Ausiello’s got spoilers out the ying yang for Lost, The BSG spinoff Caprica, The Office, The Office’s own spinoff, and more.
• Some scans of an article about Michael Trucco and his car accident from TV Guide. I cannot BELIEVE those scars. He’s kind of my hero.
• And they are only photos OF photos, but Hot Damn!!! Tricia Helfer, Katee Sackhoff, and Grace Park in bikinis. Yowzahs.
• Here’s a really interesting Final Cylon theory that I think makes a lot of sense…although I still think it’s Gaeta!
• Ricky Gervais has an awesome blog post about his new movie This Side of Truth including photos of him, Tina Fey, and Rob Lowe…and toy guns. The best bit is the candid shot of Christopher Guest “preparing for his role.”
• Speaking of Tina Fey, MSNBC is saying she’s the funniest person out there right now. As much as I love Ms. Fey and all the attention she is getting, I’d love to finally see an article about her that doesn’t include the words “It’s true, women can be funny.” Sigh.
• The Deadbolt’s got 10 Movies they want to see this summer (and 5 that make them nervous). Number one on my list is definitely Pineapple Express, which stars the love of my life, Seth Rogen.

• The AV Club has an interview with Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse! They are so fantastic.
• Jimmy Kimmel also did a Q and A with Damon and Carlton.
• Steve Carell on how to act brilliant:
  

  Appear to Listen
  I’ve learned to appear scintillatingly intellectual by asking people questions (“Do you like pizza?”). Then I just look at them, nodding and saying “Hmmm” and “Um hmmm” every few seconds. Try and keep one or two things in your head to regurgitate later. After all, what is knowledge, really, but high-resolution regurgitation?

• Here’s a James Franco interview where he talks about being part of Team Apatow and FunnyorDie.com.
• Attention 30 Rock fans! 30 Rock will be moving to the 9:30 time slot, right after The Office. The Office, 30 Rock, and then Lost all in a row? I’m getting a little farklempt.
• The 11 Most Unintentionally Gay Rap Lyrics Ever. My favorite? Obviously Black Moon’s “Ack Like U Want It.”

And don’t forget, Lost is back tomorrow night!!!!!!!

• Firefox has introduced Rickroll protection! Filter him all you want, Rick Astley is never gonna make you cry/say goodbye/tell a lie and hurt you.
• The Philadelphia Inquirer interviewed Stephen Colbert.
• Empire Magazine’s list of The 50 Greatest TV Shows of All Time, obviously written by a huge sci-fi fan. Lost is #5. Damn straight. Although I have to admit I disagree with many of the “Best Episode” choices. “Pegasus” as the best Battlestar Galactica episode? Frak no.
• Spanish director Pedro Almodovar has started blogging. In three languages, no less.
• Lost pseudo-spoiler from Kristin involving a certain kiss that was mentioned by Damon Lindelof. Not very high on the spoiler scale, but it’s something to think about.
• Galactica Sitrep has posted Some fun interviews with Michael Hogan and James Callis.
• A San Francisco Chronicle sitcom snob muses on what makes a good comedy.
• Everyone in the Conference Room, now! Mental Floss has an Office Quiz! I scored 16/18. Me lobe you long tim.

9 Days until Lost!!!!!!!!! Recap of Season 4 So Far coming soon :D
