Matt, what is your theory about where Lost is going. I read somewhere the series is "doubling back" on itself. Season 5 parallels 2 (lots of Dharma stuff), 4 paralleled 3 (split group storylines), so will 6 parallel 1? As in, retell the saga from the beginning because the universe has finally "course corrected"?
12:04
Matthew Gilbert, TV guy -  I've heard that, too. And it's a cool idea. I'd love to see them redo season one, only give it entirely different context.
12:05
Matthew Gilbert, TV guy -  Maybe even do the island scenes from season one, but with new flashforwards instead of flashbacks.
12:05
Matthew Gilbert, TV guy -  Some kind of mind-blowing storytelling trick that would make the whole time-travel thing a little more interesting.

Hey Matthew. There seems to be mixed review on ABC's CASTLE. While I loved Nathan Fillion I thought he was better than the rest of the show. Did you see it? Your thoughts?
12:06
Matthew Gilbert, TV guy -  I was on the "nay" side of the mixed reaction. The crime plotting is too light for me, and Fillion seems too bent on being CHARMING.
12:07
Matthew Gilbert, TV guy -  

On Californication, David Duchovny's character is a similiarly over-charismatic writer. But he's kind of pathological. Fillion just seems kind of smug.

Hey Matthew, what are your feelings about Life On Mars being cancelled? Did you watch the show?
12:08
Matthew Gilbert, TV guy -  I did watch, although I have two or three saved up on my DVR. And I liked it -- not loved, though.
12:09
Matthew Gilbert, TV guy -  I kept wanting to love it, but something always kept me out of getting truly attached. Loved Michael Imperioli and Jason O'Mara -- the rest of the cast, including Keitel, didn't hook me in.

I hate both Castle and Motherhood because I started rewatching Lost from the beginning on abc.com...limited commercials but they're ALWAYS for those two shows!
12:10
Matthew Gilbert, TV guy -  I know what you mean. Too many commercials for a show can really be a turn off. Try watching TNT on demand through Comcast. It makes me start to hate all the TNT shows, even the ones I really like.

I feel the same way about castle! I never want to see that show!
12:10
Matthew Gilbert, TV guy -  

Yeah, I hear you.

Any idea when Rescue Me is coming back?
12:12
Matthew Gilbert, TV guy -  Yes, in April.

Matt - Why don't you think Friday Night Lights gets more attention? In my opinion, it's one of the best dramas on TV right now. The writing, acting and filiming is top notch. And the third season has been the best so far...So, I guess i dont understand why more people arent on the FNL bandwagon yet. Do you think it will get more popular and last for a 4th season?
12:12
Matthew Gilbert, TV guy -  I've never watched Friday Night Lights.
12:12
Matthew Gilbert, TV guy -  Kidding. I'm obsessed with the darn show.
