 |
|
Imagine my surprise this morning when I was watching ABC and saw that Dom is going to be on a weekly show  Here's the blurb about the show I copied from the IMDB website - The survivors of a plane crash are forced to live with each other on a remote island, a dangerous new world that poses unique threats of its own.
Sounds something like a cross between Survivor and Gilligan's island. Unless I missed something in the forums, I don't think any of the Hobbit lovers mentioned anything about this  How could you folks do this to me? Merry is my favorite Hobbit because he has such attitude. Would you have denied me the chance to see Dom out of his funky feet and at his normal height?

| I have been following this show since it was first annouced that he had been cast many many months ago. My understanding of it all is that they have crashed on an uncharted island that has something on it that's not so nice and they have to survive with what ever it is. |

Just greedy and selfish I guess:)
I am looking forward to it, though, as always, with trepidation... I always get scared that someone I really enjoyed and respect will make a complete goobe out of himself on the next trip out... And lets face it... this darling boy is such a ham he might well shoot himself in the foot, though it was very cute in Hettie Wainthrop...

Although a TV commerical is not enough to fairly judge a new TV show, it looked to me like Dom was the best thing on it

Oh, I'll drool and watch in guilty happiness anyway, even if he does make a fool of himself:)

| Oh I don't know about that Matthew Fox has always been a cutie. Even when he was on Party of Five. |

@SilverMoonLady: Geoffrey rocks my socks *grin
I can't wait for LOST to come out though it'll probably take 3 more years till a German TV station decides to pick the show up ... if at all!  A friend of mine from US offered me to tape me the show though... so I keep my fingers crossed that I'm lucky once and it'll work out that way... I seriously can't wait 3 more years!

*grin* yeah... so sweet and trying so hard to be a 'man'! 
*sigh* I know what you mean about waiting endlessly though, hope your friend comes through!
I am a sad ninny with no cable, so I've access only to 5 channels. And that one had better come in good on that night or I'll just have to drive out to my inlaws to watch:)))

Geoffie... me loves him *lol* A friend of mine from Norway who receives BBC Prime taped three eppies for me once ... Ach, and I adores him! Shoooo cute ... when he appears on her doorstep with all his belongings. I'm so gonna get that DVD!
Only 5 channels? Oh ... that's sad ... I mean you can't watch the show then  Where are you from if I may ask? I'm not sure whether it'll really work out... I mean Julia taping me Lost and sending them over ... in any case, I'm hoping for an eventual DVD release ... in case that (which is very likely) Lost doesn't get picked up by a German TV channel. Have you seen the trailer, then?

Mwhahaha!!!
A subject I can gush about for hours!
I've been following the progress of this series for months.
Ever since the itty bitty pilot, or a little before actually!
Dom is a druggie rocker (He seems to be a druggie in a lot of his stuff lately) named Charlie. And is actually one of the main characters.
I heard a report that they're going to kill of a main character in the middle of the series to set it apart from other primetime shows. It really keeps you on your toes. I think it's going to be pretty good and the reviews have been very pleasing.
Let's see...
I know it'll be playing in Australia as well.
Lost really does have a pretty good all-star cast. They've taken alotta people from popular shows and movies and smacked them all together along with a few newcomers.
The TV Pilot was the most expensive in TV history.
I've seen alotta clips of Lost, and Dom really isn't a ham in it. He's given a really good effort and it's sure to be a regular ritual for the whole army of Dom fans. Matthew Fox will bring in a fair amount too.
They've kept alot of the plot under wraps, which doesn't surprise me. But I'm pretty sure there's some sort of beast they have an encounter with in the first episode and it escalates from there. With all these popular shows gone this year, the networks are more demanding as to what quality the shows are.
I'll try to get some more info off of the info sites I have. I'll get the links too.
Ha! Told you I could gush about it!!

Yeah I know and there're rumours it's going to be Charlie right? *bites fingernails*
Uhm, quennoftheshire? Are you the same queenoftheshire from Lost & Blown Away?

AH!
Yes!
I'm sure I've met you, if I just know your screenname.
Well, it might be Charlie but there's plenty to do to keep him on.
Sending letters to ABC about Dom and how he's doing a good job is a good thing to do. The networks really want to have input from the audience, so if you tell them what you think, they're more likly to give you what you want!
And what I want is Dom in that hooded sweatshirt!
