Pop-Up Video

ABC is playing the season finale of LOST tonight in preparation for the new season that starts tomorrow.  They're doing their own version of Pop-Up Video.  As the episode plays out a running commentary/recap randomly pops-up on the bottom of the screen.  

Strange.

I was really upset because I thought the premiere was tonight. I still watched the whole thing though and tired to guess what the next pop-up would be. I was uncannily accurate. Either I am a much better writer than I ever imagined or the strike is really hurting the talent pool in Hollywood.

I want this on every show now. How great would it be to watch American Idol and at the bottom of the screen see "This woman is singing a song". Or during the Today Show: "This person is a news anchor. Sometimes you can't trust them."

Mark, maybe it's a little of both.

Danny, that would be hilarious! Maybe on FNL it could say "Tim Riggins is dreamy." or "This is Matt Saracen. Sometimes he pronounces his girlfriend's name Car-Low-Ta."
