A weekly program focusing on the arts and entertainment

You must have noticed. "Lost" is back on ABC. And, that of course means that all the questions it has raised over the past five years will be answered.. Right?

Well, no. Or as Arts and Entertainment Editor Bob Sokolsky points out, the seventh season of "Lost" is magnifying old questions and raising new ones.

For example, the Smoke Monster has returned. And is he really John Locke? Or is Locke upposed to remain dead this time? And will any of the current romances last beyond a fourth episode?

Sokolsky notes that these, and other segments are not plot angles that originated with "Lost."

But that is no flaw, he says. "Because it has never mattered with 'Lost' has done. It is
simply the way it went about doing things.",
