There would have to be a boat close by, only way to really explain the helicopter unless of course they are in some chain of islands which I think would take away from the show.

Plus once the jamming went down, when Jack was on the walkie talkie, he said "My name is Jack Shepard are you, are you on the boat, the freighter?... Naomi, Naomi told us about about your search team, about the boat"

The guy he is talking to never sounds confused about there being a boat, and is more concerned about Naomi's safety. To me he sounds very sincere and excited.

We know boats can get to the island because Desmond's sailboat crashed there, and the others have their own boat, not to mention now are in control of Desmond's sailboat. Michael left on a boat... so it's not all that hard to believe that there is a freighter 80 or so kilometers away.

The "boat people" would make a lot of sense. Season 1 was about the fuselage people. Season 2, the tailsection... season 3 the others. So keeping with that, it makes sense that season 4 would be about another set of people we haven't met yet but are going to play a very key part to the story.

Question: Still six months of hiatus before Lost comes back. Can you help us to survive the waiting with some scoop?— Fran

Ausiello: New character alert! The show has started casting the recurring role of Arthur Stevens, a very tall and thin corporate recruiter who is smart, capable and ruthless. "He may smile and his words may sound soothing," reads the casting notice, "but their effect can send chills up your spine."

Uncle Junior's poker buddy just hit the jackpot.

Ken Leung – whose memorable turn as Uncle Junior's mentally unstable protégé on The Sopranos last season turned many a head in Hollywood (mine included) – is joining the cast of Lost next season, sources confirm to me exclusively.

It's believed Leung will be playing the recurring role of Russell, a brilliant mathematician who is capable of great insights and has a tremendous knowledge across various scientific fields. He's expected to first turn up in February's season premiere.

Non-Sopranos fans may know Leung from his role as Kid Omega in Brett Ratner's franchise killer, X-Men: The Last Stand.

Lost has found more new blood.

Sources confirm that The Wire's Lance Reddick has been cast in the recurring role of Arthur Stevens, the intimidating corporate recruitor character I first told you about in last week's Ask Ausiello. Reddick also had a lengthy arc on HBO's Oz, where he starred opposite returning Lostie Harold Perrineau.

This comes on the heels of another key piece of Lost casting: the addition of Sopranos scene-stealer Ken Leung. However, the specifics of his character remain shrounded in mystery. Rumors had him playing a brilliant mathematician named Russell, but now there's buzz that he's coming on in a top-secret role that no one (save for Darlton) knows anything about. Feel free to get some speculation going in the comments section below. Also, what do you think of Reddick's casting? Thumbs up? Thumbs down? Thumbs sideways?
