Finale Countdown: Odds and Ends

Morning, all. Sorry for a lack of last week's recap. Let's just say that I agree with Michael's thorough look at "Follow the Leader," but with slightly less enthusiasm. It's major redeeming factor was it's clear setup for this week's awesomeness. Yep, everything fell into place. And tomorrow night will be fantastic. (I also decided that I'm officially a Nestor Carbonell fan. And that more people should name their sons Nestor.)

As we wait for tomorrow....

Matthew Fox is on Ellen today.
Jorge Garcia is on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon tonight.
Jorge and Michael Emerson will be on The View tomorrow.

Speaking of Emerson, he has this to say about the finale shocker(s):

"Ours is a show that specializes in big shock endings, but I think season five ... none of the other shock endings left me wondering how the show goes on. We have two kinds of huge shocks at the end of this one. Each one alone would be enough to keep an audience eating its own soul for the whole hiatus, but with two, I don't know what you can do with that."

And while I'm here, I might as well share Ausiello's spoilers:

Question: Got any scoop on the “Lost” finale? --Carolyn Ausiello: Funny, we posed that exact question to Damon Lindelof at the Hollywood premiere of "Star Trek" earlier this week. "All I will say is that it is time for the time travel craziness to end," he said. "And once it does end, something very, very surprising will happen in its wake. It is a little bit of a game-changer."
Question: Any spoilers about “Lost's” season finale? Please! --Sarah
Ausiello: Funny, we posed that exact question to Jorge Garcia at the Hollywood premiere of "Star Trek" earlier this week. "People will find out why (Hurley) got on the plane and how he came to get that guitar case in his hands," he said. "I've been wondering about that, too. I remember at one point asking a question about it and getting a, 'We don't know yet.' I had to ask once, 'How heavy is it? Is it just a guitar? Is it something else? How heavy is it supposed to be?' Sometimes I get an empty case to lug around in a scene and sometimes it has a guitar in it, but we don't actually know what's in it because that has not been (revealed) yet. It could be a case full of food or money or guns or papers or anything. So you see me get the case by the finale, but I don't know that we will find out what's in it. It was hard for me to play because at first I did not understand why Hurley would have ever changed his mind about going back to the island, and I'm sure fans are thinking the same thing. So it will be nice to be able to give them that information."
