This is a question I posed, way back on July 12th, and never got an answer. I'm still seeing this commercial on PBS, and am still hoping for confirmation from Lost fans!<br /><br />My original question, copied and pasted:<br /><br />Hey, I've got a question for all you Lost fans...this has been bugging me, and I can't find any info on it. Maybe somebody here knows.<br /><br />Is that Matthew Fox doing the voice-over on a PBS "NOVA" commercial?? It shows mountain climbing, and the actor says, "One slip, and that's it. You're gonna die, and you're gonna pull off everyone with you."<br /><br />Sounds EXACTLY like "Jack"! Even sounds like something Jack would SAY!<br /><br />Anybody know for sure??Donna S.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-3352285724852911612010-08-18T20:15:53.973-04:002010-08-18T20:15:53.973-04:00The two cover idea would cost me more, but I'd...The two cover idea would cost me more, but I'd probably bite;) I still love the first cover, but this is clearly more appropriate for the season as it played out.

What...I'm glad you guys are enjoying the cover! What I like about it is that it's still open to interpretation. One person said to me that it represented the island in the early days, when the game first washed up on shore. But I see the sky showing that the people on the island have come, and have now gone and are off following new horizons, while the past and that baggage has been left behind on the shore. You can see the sky as showing the Great Beyond where the survivors have gone, or, as Fred says, the sun going down on our show. It can be sad, and hopeful, all at once. Just like the end of the series. :) <br /><br />And like you, Fred, I still love the other cover, too. :) I'd be proud for either one to grace my book. <br /><br />verif word: unboid: what Joss Whedon's Dollhouse was at the end of the series.Nikki Staffordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04463618183850438914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-18121440470576934262010-08-18T12:13:02.034-04:002010-08-18T12:13:02.034-04:00Barry has also made a subtle cover. I noticed the ...Barry has also made a subtle cover. I noticed the black and white stones to the left of the Senet game box (they're in the sand). Also the side of the Senet box has the warning from the count-down clock Desmond had to reset every 108 minutes while living in the Swan. Beginning with the first column, bottom of the box, the count up and right arrives you at IV. The number of squares between IV and VIII allows the count to be right, and if you continue counting to the right, move to the next row in the second column and count, you arrive at XV. But XVI is displaced. Again counting from XVI right, move down one row and start from the second column, you arrive at XXIII. Sadly, there are only 30 squares in the top of the box, so XLII just has to be put somewhere. Also the box has a likeness to a coffin, which is appropriate since the coffin makes its reappearance in this season. But overall, the picture Barry produced has a forlorn atmosphere--we really are saying goodbye to LOST in this Season. I think it has to do with the orangey sunset in the background. All said, well done.<br /><br />Though I still like the first chess cover, with the jungle background, as it fits in with the covers of your series, Nikki. You should have 2 covers, like those TV Guides when new seasons appear. Oh yes, collector series of the final Season for LOST. Get all the covers. I'm sure we'd get them.Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01474623954925835867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-942049284528084382010-08-18T10:10:18.459-04:002010-08-18T10:10:18.459-04:00Fantastic!

On the previous cover design, I searched until I had eye-strain, even following what seemed to be clear directions from some of the people in the comments, and I never found them. I finally gave up in a huff, and decided that once I had the real-live book in my hands, I would be able to see them. So, thanks, Nikki!
