“What do you know about the Comic Con panel?” Seems to be the prevailing question these days. The truth is, I know as much as anybody else. Okay, so maybe that isn’t the truth; maybe I know just a tiny bit more, but for now let’s stick with the knowns:
- The Comic-Con ‘09 Panel will be about giving back to the fans. This has been made pretty clear by the write up on the mock theme contest webpage. “It is because of you that we are celebrating our 5th year at Comic-Con, and we would love to incorporate your astounding creativity.” This would indicate that we’ll be seeing the spotlight turned back on we minions, but to what extent? Are we talking just a few silly songs? Expect more. Much more.
- Who will attend the panel? Elizabeth Mitchell will be all over Comic-Con, it seems, so would she be a possibility? Ian Somerhalder will be there in support of Vampire Diaries as well. The question is: even though they have announced publicly that Emilie De Ravin is coming back as a regular, wouldn’t bringing Mitchell to the panel answer an overarching question about Juliet’s fate? Maybe not. In fact, bringing Mitchell could be an even bigger tease. If Mitchell and past cast members like Somerhalder showed up under the guise of just wanting to be a part of the ‘last’ LOST panel, and avoided questions concerning a season 6 appearance, well… that could be either the truth or the beginning of a long con.
- Mr. TheODI is reporting that Garcia and Emerson are tentative for the panel. I gotta tell ya, I’m hearing some additional information but, again, I’m not going to publish it until there is some rock solid confirmation. All I can say is, IT SUCKS I CAN’T GO! Unfortunately, my streak of not being able to make it to Comic Con for the LOST panel goes unbroken. Fortunately, That means nothing as far as our coverage goes. Read on:
As far as our coverage is concerned, we intend to once again be providing LIVE coverage from the panel. This year the beloved Tapdawg will be in Tokyo. Bummer. However, we are very fortunate to have pop-culture blogger extraordinaire JOpinionated providing live updates from the floor. I cannot promise that our streak of being first with an unauthorized audio or video recording of the panel will continue on, however. We’re working on it. If you have any ‘ideas’ please contact me at doctorarzt [at] gmail [dot] com. In the meantime, here is what we have cooking for those who want to stay in the know:
- Follow @jopinionated and @docarzt on twitter for live tweets.
- Subscribe to this RSS Feed now, as well as the TVOvermind RSS Feed.
- Check DocArzt.com and TVovermind.com frequently, and be sure to visit JOpinionated in the evening for in-depth write ups.
- If you are interested in the other panels, we will be providing EXHAUSTIVE coverage of those as well, again provided by JOpinionated. The full schedule for our coverage can be found here on TVOvermind.
- There WILL be a contest with plenty of LOST schwag, so stay tuned for details. We’ll be announcing more on that next week.
That is all I have for now. This is sort of a bitter sweet moment, folks. The LAST LOST panel, the LAST season. Wow. Existential shock.

remember how Matthew Fox was going to leave Lost before 6th season, but they promised him a higher salary and answer to how the show would be ending. Well this was because Matthew Fox knew his character would “die” in the Season 5 finale and him staying with LOST indefinitely proves that he will be a regular character in Season 6 of LOST. So if we can assume that Jack survives, can we assume that Juliet survived as well?
No more than we can assume that everyone survived the hydrogen bomb blast (Sawyer, Kate, Jin, Hurley, Miles…).
Also not to mention that there was a lot of space between Juliet and the rest of the folk back in the 70’s near the blast. If we assume that WHH, which I do, (simply because they named a frakkin episode after it, similar to Dead is Dead, which we also later learned to be true despite Locke’s seeming resurrection) then the Island survived the blast, and everything went down as planned. I don’t know much about nuclear devices, but that little thing Juliet was pounding on maybe didn’t cause a big enough blast to hurt anyone above ground, while unfortunately sucking Juliet out of Lost. I am a big Juliet fan, so that would be lame, but, that’s lost.
One way or another that blast is going to send everyone back to the future/present. So, if that works out to be WHH or ALT who cares, but Jacob’s they are coming is a pretty clear reference to Jack and Co.
I think the WHH argument is redundant at this point because it is anybodies guess as to the specifics of what will happen next. They might try to pull a foiler and make us think everybody is back on the plane, but in the end the won’t reset the whole show.
Agreed. I think the combination of Jughead and ‘Electro magnetic properties’ caused a final flash to happen sending the ‘77ers back to ‘07… As for Juliet, I’m not so sure…
I’m kinda on the fence with this one, but WHH seems to be the direction of the show I can’t dismiss that. It was ironic that Farady disproved his own variable theory. After his whole “variable” speech he gets shot looks at his mom and says “you knew and still sent me”…how is that ever possible without WHH. When he spoke about the scar to jack, he must of had a brain-fart cause the scarless Faraday wasn’t even born yet and it’s the unborn Faraday who is going to meet Jack without a scar not scarface, so still WHH.
I’ve read a lot of interviews on this site and quite a few of them stated season 6 will be a lot like season 1 not to mention we may see some old faces again. They may not be regulars but if RA was right and he saw them all die, then the loop starts again and when the eyes start opening this time, they may be enlightened this round like another person who was also very close to bright explosion on the island in the same spot hmmm…desmond, I just still don’t know why he was naked. Season 6 could very well be Season 1, at least a few episodes just so we as the viewer can say goodbye with a “Lost” twist. The ultimate (flash)back.
“The Comic-Con ‘09 Panel will be about giving back to the fans.”
Haven’t they given us enough?
