Talk:Lost (2004 TV series)/Archive 1

message: Can we talk about what the title of this article should be?
I started it out at Lost (television drama) as to differentiate it from Lost (reality television program).  At this article's present name - it could be talking about either show.  Plus, now we have double redirects.  What should this article be called?  RADICALBENDER★ 20:20, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: I did not know about the reality show.  Personally I have no objection to moving this article to Lost (television drama), and then the Lost (TV series) page could be a disambiguation page pointing people to the other two.  I would be happy to do the grunt work to move everything around unless you'd like to.  Sorry for the mix-up.  Ahkond 13:03, 4 Nov 2004 (UTC)

thread_title: Title of article

message: Yes... IMDB lists her as "Kate Ryan." However, I do not recall her name being confirmed by any official source. The name used in WtCMB is "Maggie Ryan" and in TR is "Annie." Because of this, it seems pretty clear that Kate has a number of aliases, and the Kate referred to by the Marshal may just be another alias... and her real last name has not been mentioned. Therefore, I think it's important that we figure this out for real instead of just changing it back and forth. To begin with, does anyone have a tape of the scene in the bank where she says "My name's not Maggie?" Someone on The Fuselage says that line ends with "It's Kate." If someone can confirm it, we can at least firm up her first name. Her last name is a bigger stretch, and perhaps we can ask one of the writers about that. Baryonyx 03:37, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)
*Yeah, well. I'm not starting an edit war with someone who posts from an IP address. Especially since I'm laughing at the coincidence of seeing the real world Kate Ryan on the IGN front page this morning. It's not really that critical to life, and I've got a full schedule as it is. Good luck, all. Baryonyx 15:09, Mar 18, 2005 (UTC)
:I just checked the episode in question and "Kate" says "My names's not Maggie. (looks at bank manager) Now go." --Nosilleg 05:02, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: The 2nd to last fact (the 1st series will cover 40 days) is not true anymore since ABC ordered a full season of the show.
:I thought that the 40 days was based on a full series with each episode covering approximately 2 days.  At this point I think the time span is too up in the air and maybe we should just dump this note until somebody figures out a complete timeline.  Ahkond 13:03, 4 Nov 2004 (UTC)

message: There's an interesting New York Times article about J.J. Abrams that cites the pilot budget as around $12 million (instead of $5 million). Can either figure be confirmed? - Hedgey42 19:02, 20 Nov 2004 (UTC)

message: How about that guy who was sucked into the jet engine as one of the dead?
* Presumably there were multiple deaths in the immediate aftermath of the crash - people were running around, things were falling over and blowing up, people were bleeding.  The count starts when the immediate emergency was over and the survivors took a head count.  Ahkond 17:23, 20 Dec 2004 (UTC)

message: I removed the trivia "the heroin that Charlie snorts is really brown sugar". This is really sub-trivia. This is a TV series, so everything in it is faked. We don't want to have to add trivia like "when Ethan was shot, the actor wasn't really killed". DJ Clayworth 15:22, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
