Watch It: 'Lost' Anniversary Marks Polarizing Finale

23 May 2012 1:00 PM, PDT | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »

Two years ago, an impossible beam of bright light zapped out of an island and left "Lost" fans everywhere dumbfounded, for better or for worse. The series finale was polarizing, no doubt about it: was it brilliant? Was it moronic? Fandom remains divided on the issue to this very day, and we're marking the occasion with our own look back on "Lost" history.

Go back to the island, and find out what else we're watching, in this week's Watch It!

"Fifty Shades of Grey"

I hate to say it, but I've been consumed by "Fifty Shades of Grey." It's not a movie, but it certainly will be, which is why I decided to give it a read. As "Twilight" fan fiction, I definitely notice traces of Edward Cullen and Bella Swan in the main characters of Christian Grey and Ana Steele. Christian is brooding, self-deprecating and impossibly good-looking, while Ana is clumsy, »

Damon Lindelof Talks About Lost's Ending in Detail

23 May 2012 10:30 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

Almost exactly two years ago, my favorite TV show of all time came to an end. I was one of the few people who was actually satisfied with Lost's ending (which we talked about in detail when it happened), but a lot of people were pissed at the way Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse ended the show. By his own admission, Lindelof says that a lot of the questions the series posed were not answered, but in this interview with The Verge, he speaks for about 25 minutes and talks in depth about what the finale means to him and how he has no regrets with the way the series came to a close.

I respect Lindelof for agreeing to talk about this in such detail, especially since the show feels like ancient history with all of the things that have happened in the world since 2010. I also like how he handles the criticisms, »

Damon Lindelof Talks at Length about the Ending of Lost

22 May 2012 9:52 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

Lost ended almost two years ago, and the finale was predictably controversial and divisive.  After the finale, show-runners Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse understandably went radio-silent, so the ending could sink in.  The duo also didn't return to Comic-Con that summer because it wouldn't have been a conversation with fans but an inquisition (although I would have liked to seen the room erupt in a massive conflict between people who liked the ending and those who disliked it).  While Lindelof eventually did open up regarding some of the fan questions, I haven't seen a one-on-one interview where he has a civil conversation about the ending rather than an interrogation. Today, a one-on-one interview has gone online, and it features Lindelof talking about the reactions to the ending, his intent, and providing a little clarification on some vague points, but never clearing up the ambiguity of the show's final scenes.  Hit »

Stephen Hawking To Guest On 'The Big Bang Theory'; 'Lost' Showrunner Carlton Cuse Heads To 'The Bates Motel' & More

13 March 2012 7:39 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

Here's a bit of small screen news, and what you can expect on the box in the next little while:

"The Big Bang Theory" remains as popular as ever, and we can only imagine that's down to attracting the geek crowd to the kind of broad Chuck Lorre sitcom they would normally avoid. Now in its fifth season, the show is starting to attract some phenomenal guest stars (with Leonard Nimoy appearing a few weeks ago) and now they've snagged their dream cameo for the episode that will air on April 5th - none other than Stephen Hawking. The scientist has regularly been mentioned on the show and is a hero of many of the main characters. He's previously provided his voice for episodes of "Futurama" and "The Simpsons," but he's going one better here and we may even tune in to see how they write him into the show. »

With Carlton Cuse Involved, The Bates Motel Series is Now Guaranteed to Be Awesome

12 March 2012 4:00 AM, PDT | ScifiMafia | See recent ScifiMafia news »

Yes, Losties, It’S True! It’S Carlton! Our Carlton! And here was, trying to trick us into thinking he was going to be doing some Civil War thing. Nahhhhhh. For non-Lost-fans, Carlton Cuse was one half of the showrunning team, along with Damon Lindelof, lovingly referred to jointly as Darlton, who guided the antics of those wacky kids on The Island.

As we told you back in January, A&E is planning the Psycho prequel to center around Norman Bates from his childhood through his teen years, and the horrible treatment he receives from his mother Norma and her lover. Which is meant to explain a lot.

THR broke the news, saying that Cuse would executive produce and oversee the writing and production of the “six-episode event” that would hopefully lead to additional seasons “if the show is picked up to series.” All right, Powers That Be at A&E, »

'Lost' Showrunner Carlton Cuse Is A&E Bound And About To Check Into 'The Bates Motel'

10 March 2012 6:31 PM, PST | Horrorbid | See recent Horrorbid news »

A&E, which isn't known at all for offering horror based programming, is apparently trying to branch off to a different breed of audiences by developing a new series that will serve as a prequel to Alfred Hitchcock's classic horror movie "Psycho." Needless to say, I am very curious about this project, and it hope it sees the light of day. According to The Hollywood Reporter Carlton Cuse (pictured below), who was previously the showrunner for Lost… »

Lost Showrunner Checks into A&E's Bates Motel?

10 March 2012 4:55 PM, PST | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

Some more news coming in for A&E's crack at the legendary tale of everyone's most notorious mama's boy, "Bates Motel". Read on for the first details about who will be there managing the front desk!

According to THR "Lost"'s Carlton Cuse may be signing on as showrunner for the cable series. A&E is developing the series, being produced by Mark Wolper and Roy Lee, as a prequel to Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho. The 1960 horror classic featured an off-his-rocker motel manager named Norman Bates who murdered occasional boarders while under the watch of his even-more-psychotic mother.

"Bates Motel" aims to tell the story of a young Bates and how his life with his deranged mother and her lover unhinged his mind, eventually turning him into a serial killer. It has been described as a cross between "Twin Peaks" and "Smallville".

Bates Motel: New Details on Psycho Prequel TV Series

10 March 2012 10:45 AM, PST | DailyDead | See recent DailyDead news »

In January, A&E officially announced that they were working with Universal on a Psycho prequel series. At the time, all we knew was that the series was in the script development phase, but we now have new details on the creative forces involved.

According to Heat Vision, Lost showrunner Carlton Cuse will be serving as an executive producer on Bates Motel. Cuse will also be involved on the creative end, overseeing writing and production. Kerry Ehrin has been hired as a writer and executive producer, and will be working with Cuse.

Mark Wolper and Roy Lee are on board as producers and the show is said to be a mix of Twin Peaks and Smallville. They are said to be taking a “Walking Dead” approach to the show and planning to test the waters with a 6-episode first season and expand if everything is successful.

The series has not been given the green light, »

Lost Showrunner Carlton Cuse Joins A&E’s Psycho Prequel Series The Bates Motel

9 March 2012 7:20 PM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

While many fans directed their love/hate mail to J.J. Abrams during Lost’s six-season run, the truth is that Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse were the actual brains behind the day-to-day running of the series. The two were the showrunners for the duration of the show's life while Abrams simply served as an executive producer (though he was crucial to developing the pilot and the overall idea for the groundbreaking series). Lindelof took a fairly prolific route following the series finale with writing gigs on Cowboys & Aliens, Star Trek 2, and Prometheus, but many fans have been waiting to see what Cuse would tackle post-Lost. It appears we have our answer, as Cuse has just joined the A&E series The Bates Motel as an executive producer. Hit the jump for more. Though Cuse has been busy developing film and TV projects for the past few years (he »

TV: Carlton Cuse No Longer "Lost", Checks Into "Bates Motel"

9 March 2012 7:08 PM, PST | bloody-disgusting.com | See recent Bloody-Disgusting.com news »

Just when we'd forgotten about A&E's Bates Motel, a potential series from Universal Television for A&E that would serve as a prequel to the Alfred Hitchcock 1960 classic Psycho, we get a jolt of news that reminds us that this project is very much alive. Carlton Cuse has joined the Roy Lee and Mark Wolper produced series. Per The Hollywood Reporter, "Carlton Cuse, who along with Damon Lindelof executive produced and acted as showrunners of ABC's "Lost", is boarding A&Es "The Bates Motel". If the show is picked up to series, Cuse will executive produce and oversee the writing and production what is being envisioned intially as a six-episode event" that would lead to additional seasons. It also marks the first genre TV project for Cuse since his acclaimed run on "Lost"." »

The Daily Beast: "Happy Birthday, Charles Dickens! Lost, NCIS, Big Love, Veep Writers on His Legacy"

7 February 2012 7:25 AM, PST | Televisionary | See recent Televisionary news »

Happy birthday, Mr. Dickens. Over at The Daily Beast, we're celebrating Charles Dickens’s 200th birthday. You can read my latest feature, entitled "Happy Birthday, Charles Dickens! Lost, NCIS, Big Love, Veep Writers on His Legacy," in which I talk to TV auteurs including Lost's Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof, The Thick of It and Veep creator Armando Iannucci, NCIS's Gary Glasberg, and others as they reflect on how Dickens’s work has influenced storytelling on television. Today marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Dickens (1812–1870), but the popularity of the writer of such novels as Great Expectations, Bleak House, A Tale of Two Cities, and David Copperfield—to name but a few of his immortal works—hasn’t diminished in the time since his death. In the pantheon of great English-language novelists, Dickens reigns supreme for a number of reasons. He was a master storyteller »
