LOST Pre-Game: “The Substitute”

Let’s lead off with some Lost sightings, since there were some good ones this week. On ABC’s not-very-good series The Forgotten, both Bernard and Alex showed up last week, even though the very title of the series would indicate it would be a better fit for Steve and Scott, or perhaps Paolo and Nikki. Dr. Marvin Candle showed up in a Super Bowl ad for Bud Light, adding “Astronomer” to his lengthy list of credentials. (How much better would that ad have been if he’d had a prosthetic arm?) And in my favorite sighting of the week, over on The Sarah Silverman Program, Sarah hosted a kids’ show. One of the segments on her show had her watching Lost while the kids sat quietly on the other side of the room. It was pretty hilarious.
