Vincent named one of TV’s greatest pets by TVGuide
Man’s best friend, indeed. Vincent wasn’t always integral to every story Lost told, but he was always there for the significant moments in the island lives of the Oceanic 815 crash survivors, including the series’ last scene. We dare you not to tear up when Vincent, loyal and true, makes sure that Jack (SPOILER ALERT!) doesn’t “die alone.”
I spy Jack and Vincent. (via mattlovescomics; and here is Matt’s list of the characters in the room.)
Alcatraz opened strong to 10 million viewers and a 3.3 rating among adults 18-49. Nice!
The three highest rated drama premieres of this TV season: 1. Once Upon a Time; 2. (tie) Alcatraz & Revenge. What do two of those shows have in common? LOST connections!
What did everyone think about the first two hours of Alcatraz?
Pre-Alcatraz reading/viewing:
- Esquire: 5 things you’ll be seeing on Alcatraz tonight that may or may not look familiar (including the music of Michael Giacchino, above, who scored the pilot)
- TVLine: 6 things to know about Alcatraz, including how it is (and isn’t) like LOST
- FYL: JJ Abrams talks about Alcatraz
- IGN: Jorge Garcia takes us to Alcatraz (“I think it is definitely [Doc, his character’s] dream come true on paper. But when he has to start dealing with the reality of how… When you have that fantasy about how cool it would be to be a pirate and to live in that time period, you’ve got to realize being a pirate or being attacked by pirates probably really sucked.”)
New video! J.J. Abrams talks about the upcoming Alcatraz, which premieres (for two hours) on Fox Monday, January 16, which is just ten days away! (video via TVLine)
“The cool thing is that the show, in flashbacks, shows you what happened in Alcatraz 50 years ago. So the fun is, you have a present day story that is sort of a crime drama and the backstory, the past story, is informing what’s happening now as well so the audience gets privileged scenes that the characters of the show in present day are still trying to figure out.” Sound familiar, LOST fans?
Sunday’s episode of The Simpsons (23.09, “Holidays of Future Passed”) was a flash-forward episode, set 30 years into the future. A pregnant Maggie goes to the airport (to teleport) at gate 23.
It’s official: Alcatraz will premiere on Fox Monday, January 16, 2012.
The premiere will be two hours.
