I *want* them to lie as much as possible, if it cuts down on spoilers in
the show. I'm a little sick and tired of Lost theories getting shot down
by
people who say "nope, in podcast x, they said that isn't ever going to
happen." Ha ha, they didn't tell the whole truth.

I really don't want to know what's going to happen in advance. I don't
read
the last chapter of a mystery, and I certainly don't read freaking
spoilers. Spoiler whores are killfile fodder.

Since the show has a definitive end, at least now, I wouldn't be so fast
to
think that. And some of the story threads have played out over 3 seasons -
you don't make that work by winging it.

I'll bet they have an ironclad outline of the rest of the series, myself.
