The Sawyer’s year

The Sawyer’s year

“Lost” (8 p.m. recap, 9 p.m. season debut Jan. 21, WXYZ-TV, Channel 7, ABC). How would executive producers Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof describe the opening scenes of the season premiere of “Lost”?

Compelling, says Cuse.

Groovy, says Lindelof.

Sounds intriguing, but then again, that’s what makes “Lost” special. “What we don’t want to do in season five is basically stand around sort of shifting from one foot to another waiting for the last season of the show,” says Cuse of the acclaimed ABC series that’s set to wrap in 2010. “Like it or not, we decided to take some chances this year and be bold in our storytelling and we’re willing to accept the consequences of that.”

As the story picks up again, Jack and Ben are trying to reunite the Oceanic 6 and return them to the island, with Locke’s body in tow, in a quest to save the remaining castaways. But it’s going to be tricky convincing everyone to cooperate. And since Ben moved the island at the end of last season’s finale, they’ll have to figure out where — and when — it went.

Expect a lot of interesting things to happen sooner rather than later. But “Lost” is a character-driven journey, too, so there’ll be plenty of focus on the romantic quadrangle of Jack, Kate, Sawyer and Juliet.

Speaking of sardonic hunk Sawyer, will he get the screen time he deserves? “We really feel it’s the year of Sawyer,” says Lindelof. “He’s really stepping up in a major way.”

    This makes me so incredibly happy! I think that Sawyer is one of the best characters, and he definitely didn’t get enough to do last year. Sawyer’s year! Whooo!

    Sawyer’s year? Damon and Carlton, did you two not learn anything from the season three mini arc? Every time Sawyer is given more screen time, ratings go down. :(

    I don’t think its gonna be a Sawyer heavy season but after last season i think finally he will get more screen time and get the chance to do something useful. And while Locke is on his own and Jack is gone, naturally he will become kind of a leader. At least till O6 get back ;)
    Good for Sawyer and for his fans tho. They really had a dissapointing season in S4 coz Sawyer didn’t really get much screen time. I believe he deserves to get more screentime.

    I know he will shine in every scene he is in. He is a talent to the show and they know that. So if this is his year Sawyer well bring it home. Season 5 will rock. Love the show and love the actor and sawyer.

    obviously, it has to be the year of sawyer. who else is really left on the island that could take the leader role for the survivors?
