Could ‘Desperate Housewives’ get some ‘Lost’ leftovers?
June 8, 2009 by Amy Bartner
There’s been a lot of buzz around this ABC promo showing former “Lost” cast member Dominic Monaghan foosballing it up with Courtney Cox, Patrick Dempsey and Ed O’Neill:
The rumors began, naturally, with Charlie coming back to “Lost.” Yet Michael Ausiello from EW.com reported that there’s a reason ABC is using Dominic in the bit, and it’s not because he’s coming back to the island.
“The real reason Monaghan is featured in that cheeky spot is because he’s actually joining the cast of another hour-long ABC drama series as a full-time series regular,” Michael wrote.
I, of course, (and should) have a one-track mind and immediately think “OMG, CHARLIE IS COMING TO DH!”
What do you guys think? Michael was sworn to secrecy by ABC, but when I hear “hour-long ABC drama,” I just can’t imagine any other option. “Brothers and Sisters”? “Castle”? “Dirty Sexy Money”? “Private Practice”?
I don’t know, I feel like I could see a pretty adorable romance between Dominic and Julie Mayer. (That is, if we ever get to see her again.)
Also, should I mention that I cried for two weeks straight when Charlie was killed off “Lost” and would be the happiest little blogger in the world if he came to “Desperate Housewives”? Color me biased, but….
I’m from Britain – so I haven’t got a clue who these Lost people are! but I hope he/she’s a good actor/tress
WHAT? You’re from Britain and you don’t know about LOST?
What the hell, what’ve you been watching for the past 5 years?
I’m from Britain also, and I absolutely adore Lost.
& Charlie was by far my favourite character out of Lost, so yeah I’m extremely happy about this.
P.S: It is DH he’s moving too, he’s in two eps so far on the IMDB website.
He’s gonna be Andy Britt. I can’t wait, oh em geee. I hope he’s gonna play an english character and NOT an American.
Bwah, I’m from Alberta, Canada and it is SO hard to find Lost fans in my area! I just started watching in June 2009, but I’ve seen all seasons except 5.
I absolutely adoorre Dominic Monaghan, I was totally destroyed when Charlie died. It was unbelieveably tragic, don’t you think?
I think he’s on this promo because of FlashForward, as he is now playing Simon, however that might be old news.
yeah – it’s definitely because he is on FlashForward now. IMDB has him listed as being on the latest episode of DH (Would I Think Of Suicide?), but neither his voice nor his face were seen on screen – he was supposed be be in the episode prior to the newest one as well, so the only two people he could be, IF he is to actually show up on DH are the agent that Nick Bolen talked to on the phone (though we did not hear his voice), or the Fairview Strangler, who we caught a glimpse of taking out a piece of gum. My vote is this is all BS and he’s simply going to be a regular as opposed to a guest star in FlashForward.
