Lost Season 6 Premiere Date Announced

From eonline.com:

According to ABC, Lost season six will premiere on its new night, Tuesday, February 2, 2010, at 9 p.m. Is it a coincidence that this is Groundhog Day? Will this new season, like the Bill Murray movie, have scenes repeating themselves, but now maybe with subtle changes?

ABC also confirms that Nestor Carbonell's Richard Alpert, Ken Leung's Miles, Jeff Fahey's Frank Lapidus, and Zuleikha Robinson's Ilana have all been upped to series regular status (supposedly Ilana has close personal ties to the Island); Emilie de Ravin is back full-time as Claire; and that Henry Ian Cusick's Desmond is not a season-six regular, although he'll no doubt appear as a heavily featured recurring character.

In other Lost news, the season five DVD/Blu-ray packaging has hieroglyphics hidden within the cover art that offer additional clues to the nature of season six.

For the Lost Fan on Your Christmas List

Although Season 5 will be released in the traditional DVD box set ($59.99) on December 8, the true Lost fan will want to get the Lost: Complete Fifth Season Dharma Initiation Kit ($119.99) on that same date. The five DVDs come cleverly packaged in 1970's era floppy disc covers. There are Dharma patches and even a VHS tape (who has VCRs any more?!).
