Oh and though it'll never happen, my #1 wish would be for Brian K. Vaughan to graduate from Lost and make a full fledged TV show of Y: the Last Man instead of making it a movie. That's just my wishful thinking.

Lost is what brought me back to television after I abandoned it in the early 2000s. I've picked up a few shows here and there thanks to Lost but most are already cancelled. I'll probably give V a chance because I liked the original but I think I'd rather ride my bike and catch up on comics than settle for bad TV. But here's hoping at least one show shines.

I am personally rooting for Flash Forward. Out of all three, this seems the most interesting, but you never know. After doing some research for an article to the show, this will hopefully be good.

I'm still hoping flashforward would be good. The premise is good the book its based on looks decent too.. I've wanted to read to book but now that their is a series I sure will.

Ain't It Cool has some clips from V. It doesn't look to be anywhere near on a par with Lost, or with the original miniseries, but it looks like it may be fun. It reminded me more of The 4400 than anything else, maybe because Joel Gretsch is in it.

They also have a clip of Flash Forward. Looks awful, which is disappointing because the premise sounds cool. The clip is just people sitting in a conference room saying things like, "It felt like the future."

Day One sounds the most promising, partly because it's limited and therefore has an end in place, but also because it seems to avoid the exact thing that makes the Flash Forward clip seem so trite: a bunch of people sitting in a conference room talking about what's happening.

v definitely looks the best, with day one in second and flashforward in third.

@gluphokquen - Re: Heroes - No, it's terrible. I watched a few episodes this season and they were ridiculous. The season finale was so awful, I can't even begin to describe - Various character going around explaining things to each other with no action. They even had one fight scene where they closed a door right before it started so the audience didn't see it. I don't know who your source is, but Heroes is a pathetic, awful show (notice the re-use of adjectives). Don't even start about how Time Kring, the creator, admitted he had no idea where the show was going after the first season, said he'd rather write a show that just "reset" each week, and called all the fans of the show who watch it each week "saps and dipshits." I could keep going, but I'm guessing that you get the point.

@Anonymous Flash Forward is on ABC, so that's much better for Penny being on Lost than if it was on a competing network. She was able to work around her HBO show to do Lost though, so I wouldn't be too worried.

Just the other day I was thinking about shows that have tried to capture Lost's style since it premiered. It would be an interesting article on the wiki to look at them, shared cast/crew, how they did, and how long they lasted. The four that always come to my mind are the three that appeared (and were canceled) during Lost's second season: Invasion, Surface, and Threshold; and of course Heroes, which seems to be recovering well after the WGA strike and some accusations of jumping the shark. I haven't seen much of Heroes, but did read somewhere, that it might be one of the first tv shows to successfully un-jump the shark.

Crap, does this bode poorly for Penny being in Season 6? I REALLY NEED DESMOND AND PENNY TO BE IN SEASON 6.
