Lost Media

Who are the best TV characters of the past decade? Well, that’s for you to decide.Join Zap2it this summer as we let you pick the best TV Boss, President, Villian, Psychic and more.

Here are the three golden rules of how we decided who was eligible for inclusion.

1. A show may have premiered in the ’90s, but as long as the majority of its run was after January 2000, it’s allowed.

2. OK, fine, a show could have premiered in the ’80s (hello, “The Simpsons”), but then it had better make sure it was on for a majority of the oughts as well.

3. Obviously, a nominated character had to have been on the show on a semi-regular basis during the past 10 years. So, while “ER” is eligible, George Clooney’s Dr. Doug Ross sadly is not.

Still think someone is missing? Let us know in the comments section at the bottom of each poll. We’ll compile more polls based on your nominations at the end of the summer.

In this exclusive interview with tvguidemagazine.com, Suzanne Tracht, chef and owner of Los Angeles’ Jar restaurant, gives us the scoop on her love of Dr. Pepper, how it paid off to be a fan of Lost and her under-the-radar Round 2 win on Top Chef Masters.

When the challenge was introduced to cook dinner for some of the writers and creators of Lost, you seemed to be the only competitor familiar with the show. Why?
It’s on at a time at night when chefs are working. The first time I ever saw Lost, my son, Max, and I went to rent a video. I told him, “I heard that Lost is really good.” So we got the first season. We started watching it in the afternoon and before we knew it, it was time for bed.

So when you saw the array of island ingredients what did you think?
It was like Christmas on a table to me! I could live off of those foods every day—oysters, green mango, chicken, wild boar. I just thought, “Woo hoo. I’m going to cook everything!” So I imagined myself on a desert island. Then I thought, “What would John Locke do?” Then I opened up six coconuts and used the water to make a stock for risotto.
