News for "Lost" (2004) While many dramatic TV serials offer a recap during their season premiere, ABC will be offering viewers of its hit series Lost a chance to watch all of the episodes of the past season on DVD. ABC's Desperate Housewives and Lost continued to keep the long-hibernating network in the action last week and were a decisive factor in holding NBC at bay. One day after a preview screening of the new ABC series Lost at the outdoor Sunset on the Beach at Waikiki Beach, NBC screened a preview of its own produced-in-Hawaii series, Hawaii, at the same location Sunday night. www.imdb.com /title/tt0411008/news

ABC-TV’s Hit Series, “Lost,” Features Sayid, a Sensitive, Appealing Iraqi Asked his opinion of Hollywood’s portrayal of Arabs, Arab-American TV and film critic Jack Shaheen replied: “There are gobs of TV shows that stereotype Arabs in a negative light. Each week’s episode provides more revelations on the pasts of the survivors—and they are as disparate a group as might be found on any international jetliner manifest. When it hit extreme turbulence, radio communications were lost and the jetliner crashed 1,000 miles off course. www.wrmea.com /archives/April_2005/0504044.html

Peyton Place Peyton Place, a prime-time program based on the Grace Metalious novel, was an experiment for American television in both content and scheduling when it appeared on ABC, at that time still the third-ranked U.S. network. Premiering in the fall of 1964, Peyton Place was offered in two serialized installments per week, Tuesday and Thursday nights, a first for American prime-time television. Cut back to one half-hour episode per week, the show also was scheduled a half-hour earlier to appeal further to youthful audiences. www.museum.tv /archives/etv/P/htmlP/peytonplace/peytonplace.htm

LOST-TV // the unofficial fansite for the abc series 'lost' [http://www.lost-tv.com/] Somewhere around the time he glimpsed the shark with the tattoo, a rabid "Lost" fan named Elan Lee knew there was something different going on: This was a TV show that liked its audience. Buena Vista Television and ABC today unveiled the 'LOST Hawaiian Sweepstakes,' giving viewers of The Tony Danza Show a chance to head to Hawaii this winter to visit the tropical set of LOST and kick up some sand with primetime's hottest stars. When the producers of Lost cast the role of Michael (a father trying to connect with his estranged son, Walt, only to have him kidnapped), they immediately knew Harold Perrineau was the perfect choice to portray this complex character. www.lost-tv.com   (2124 words)

Zap2it - TV news - 'Commander In Chief' Deposed Until April 02:30 PM PT ABC has invoked the TV-scheduling version of the 25th Amendment on its freshman series "Commander In Chief," benching it until mid-April.

'Commander in Chief' off air until spring AccessAtlanta The series is struggling to find a balance between being a family drama that just happens to be set in the White House and being a crisis-of-the-week political procedural. The issues had to do with Lurie, who had created the series after exploring similar themes about women in politics with the film "The Contender." Lurie tried to direct, write and produce most of the early episodes, an almost impossible task on a TV series. 'Commander in Chief' creator Rod Lurie, shown with star Geena Davis at ABC's summer press tour, was replaced by veteran TV man Steven Bochco after Lurie delivered late episodes. www.accessatlanta.com /news/content/entertainment/stories/0131commander.html   (878 words)
