The Official Lost Podcast March 30, 2007

A new edition of the famous official Lost podcast has been unleashed:

Executive Producer Carlton Cuse and fellow writers Adam Kitsis and Eddie Horowitz expose “Exposé” and look forward to “Left Behind” (4/4/07). Elizabeth Mitchell discusses the challenges of playing Juliet.

Listen to the Lost podcast

  • Elizabeth Mitchell was told that Juliet hadn’t been on the island her entire life and that she is trapped there when she got the part.
  • Elizabeth thinks that Juliet mostly tells the truth.
  • Carlton Cuse got Kitsis and Horowitz to join the Lost writing team.
  • The idea of an actress on the island (Nikki), first came up at the end of season one.
  • The fans asked to see the background survivors, but when we got to see them in the form of Nikki and Paulo we wanted to see the regular characters again.
  • Eddie and Adam feel that even if Nikki and Paulo got off to a bad start with the fans, it was worth it to be able to do “Exposé”, which they feel is one of their favorite episodes.
  • It was Damon’s idea to bury them alive.
  • Through a messenger, Damon asked if it was alright if Vincent, the dog, could have magic powers and die in the season 3 finale.
  • It was Adam Horowitz’s idea to cast Billy Dee Williams as ‘The Cobra’ in Exposé
  • It takes about 10 days to shoot an episode of Lost, but around 5 weeks total to complete it. Which is pretty cool considering that it can take 5 months or even 5 years to complete a feature film which is usually only twice as long as a Lost episode.
  • The man falling by the building Hurley was having a meeting in was not Locke.
  • Rose and Bernard will be back this season. The characters are “always on the island” but the actors have other things to do so the schedule has to fit.
  • As we know, some characters are named after philosophers, other names are just randomly picked, but from now on Carlton will be using fakenamegenerator.com.
  • Locke is unhappy that Ben is using too many technological resources and is loosing his sense of tune with the island.
  • According to the writers, “the box” is a metaphor.
