The Onion: Last season of Lost will make fans more annoying than ever

Thanks to Jeff for sending this story ...

Fake news outlet, The Onion, predicts that this final season of Lost will make fans more annoying than ever.

Hilarious part: Shelters are being opened for those who live with Lost fans. Don't miss the words on the screen that say that this is modeled after successful containment of fans from The Wire (another brilliant show.)

The best part: Cuse and Lindelof are in on the joke and are actually interviewed.



Final Season Of 'Lost' Promises To Make Fans More Annoying Than Ever

Which LOST character will get a spin-off show? (Just kidding!)

The satiric minds at The Onion ("America's Finest News Source") have "revealed" that one Lost character has been such a monster hit with audiences that he will be getting his own spin-off series. You'll see him in an ABC family comedy to be called Where There's Smoke:

ABC sources reported that the series will transplant the evil black cloud from the island of Lost to the suburbs of Chicago, where it works as a sports radio host, surrounded by "a whole new group of crazy characters." Actress Lea Thompson has signed on to play the monster's long-suffering wife, who must put up with her husband's screwball antics while raising the couple's two rambunctious children, Tanner and Smoky, Jr.

...Lost producer Jack Bender has confirmed that the smoke monster will no longer be part of his show's regular cast. However, ABC has promised that Where There's Smoke will feature a number of guest appearances from Lost regulars. Sources said the pilot episode will feature an appearance by actor Michael Emerson as a slobby houseguest named Benjamin Linus who overstays his welcome, much to the chagrin of the smoke monster's wife.
