Lost Revisits Hurley's Past
credit: Scifi.com

The upcoming Feb. 28 episode of ABC's Lost will revisit the backstory of Hurley, played by Jorge Garcia, co-executive producers Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis told SCI FI Wire. "What's exciting about the next one is it's really in the tradition of some Hurley episodes, like 'Everybody Hates Hugo,'" said Kitsis, who co-wrote the episode with Horowitz. "It's kind of a lighter episode. It's emotional, but what also, I think, people will really be excited about is we're back on the beach. You'll definitely get another piece of Hurley backstory."

"And I would say, make sure you watch 'til the very last second," Horowitz added.

As Lost fans know, Hugo "Hurley" Reyes is a reluctant lottery-winning millionaire who spent time in a mental institution and believes his special lottery winning numbers are cursed.

"Adam and I are lucky enough that this is our third Hurley story," Kitsis said. He and Horowitz also wrote 'Dave' and 'Everybody Hates Hugo.' They say that they've become the Hurley specialists on the show.

"We fell in love with him, and we tell everyone to back off," Horowitz said with a laugh. "We love writing for Hurley. ... It's a challenge coming up with any story, but the truth is, actually, the story this week was something that was conceived a really long time ago. So it was one of those stories we've been waiting to tell."

The writers added that there is more story coming for Locke, the troubled character played by Terry O'Quinn, who was in a wheelchair when he crashed onto the series' mysterious island. Why? "I don't want to give away anything, and I can't give away anything," Horowitz said with a laugh. "I value my job. But I will say that that episode, it's been a long time coming. It will create some new story paths for the audience to be interested in Locke. And we fully hope the question in everyone's head is answered, and they're all very happy with the answer and excited by it. But we're excited, because it has opened up some new things with that character that we hope you guys will like."

Kitsis and Horowitz confirmed that the rest of the season will also explore the backstories of Claire (Emilie de Ravin), Sayid (Naveen Andrews) and two characters new to this season, Paulo (Rodrigo Santoro) and Nikki (Kiele Sanchez). Lost airs at 10 p.m. ET/PT on Wednesdays. —Kathie Huddleston

YES!

This was SUCH a nice break from all the Others/Island Mysteries/Jack-centric stuff of the last few weeks. Even though Sawyer was so prominently featured, it was nice to see him interacting with everyone. Especially Hurley trying (and failing) to give Sawyer a nickname.

I also liked how they wrote out Hurley's friend and girlfriend in one line.

It looks like next week we get back to ACTION ACTION ACTION! But for one week, this was a nice throwback to some of the slower episodes.

This episode was a lot of fun, culminating in that instantly classic scene with the guys and Vincent riding around in the van hooting and hollering, looking like a car commercial. It will get even better if we eventually see Hurley drive that van right through Ben's front door in Otherville.



I don't know what is more disquieting -- the fact that the rest of the statue is missing, or that it has four toes.

Loved the episode, and man did that meteor look neato in Hi-Def. Sawyer was especially awesome in this episode - when he found Roger's head, and when he taught Jin all the things a woman wants to hear.



Or was it an asteroid?

Could there have been a more perfect song to be playing in a hippy mobile ?

International House of Pancakes.

$10,000. Your father put me up to it.

It really is about time that someone put 2 & 2 together that Alex is Rousseau's daughter. Nice to see Rousseau come back too. At least now the action will be unpredictable with her around. I hear a Sayid flashback is coming very soon too.

Cheech could have been played by anybody.

And I can't believe that there is an uproar about Charlie dying. After last night, I wish they would just hurry up and kill him.

is it Wednesday yet ?

I actually thought there was a shot that both Hurley and Charlie might die on the hill just to show that the island doesn't let you make your own luck.

Y'know, a post-Lost spinoff of Hurley/Charlie/Jin/Sawyer/Vincent criss-crossing the country in the Dharma van, solving crimes, would be a pretty awesome show.

ROFL, that's what a friend of mine said as well.

It was a fun episode. Though I was hoping for a more WTF? crazy Hurley story.
This was great fun too. Sawyer and Jin were gold.

And hmmm...Tricia Tanaka. Loved the way Hurley said her name, almost like "if that is even your real name"

"Well Skeletor likes it!"

"You called it Little-house?!"

God I loved this episode. Looks like eyepatch man is in the next one, which rocks. Crazy Russian anarchist marooned among the warring idiots.

Sawyer, if only so he has to permanently wear those goofy-looking glasses that Jack made for him.

Fred = Vincent
Velma = Sawyer
Shaggy = Hurley ("Dude!" is the new "Zoinks!")
Scooby = Jin
Daphne = Charlie ("danger-prone Daphne", and Charlie keeps finding himself in peril)
