TELEVISION: Confused? You Won’t Be After Tonight’s Premiere of Lost!

No, I haven’t seen anything more than the almost new footage-free spots that ABC has been airing for the much anticipated final season premiere of Lost [ABC, 9/8C – Recap at 8/7C] – or the collections of soundbites from the cast members – all content-free but talking about such things as the show’s legacy and their places within it.

Network suits everywhere are astounded!

Tomorrow, I’ll post my reaction to LA X, the two-hour premiere of the final season of Lost.
