Locke and Ben Linus Return in… Something or Other
Actually, I have no idea what the result will be of the new collaboration between Terry O’Quinn and Michael Emerson, better known as John Locke and Ben Linus of Lost. All I know is that NBC snagged the project and has greenlit a pilot, based on the fact that the show is from J.J. Abrams and stars fucking Locke and Linus. Certainly, NBC has made far worse decisions than taking a chance on a show starring Lost‘s finest. All we know about the shows is that is once briefly called “Odd Jobs” and is now called nothing.
