I make no distinction between writing and storytelling; I've always wanted to tell stories.

If I went for a long period in my life where I was unemployed and I was unable to make a living and the only way for me to basically provide for my family was, "Hey, we're bringing Lost back!", then I would probably consider it. But I feel like it would be a betrayal to the fandom, and myself, to do anymore Lost, because we had such an adequate period of time to end the show.

Lost is a mystery show, so I think that would be stripping the franchise of sort of its essential nature.

When you're a writer and you're a producer, traditionally the junkets are really focused on the beautiful people and nobody wants to talk to you.

The fun thing about doing origin stories is you are introducing the audience to characters.

In television, I don't feel constraints. I feel a lot freedom to maneuver.
