Now that the strike is officially resolved, shows are gearing up to get back into production. One of the biggest question marks has been the fate of Lost. Executive Producer Carlton Cuse chatted with TV Guide’s Michael Ausiello about what lies ahead for the ABC drama.

As has been previously reported, the team will be producing five more episodes of the show. Depending on your opinon, that could be a good thing or a bad thing…personally, I think it’s a good move. Cuse did confirm also that there would likely be a break of about four weeks between the current run of episodes and the launch of the new batch. While I’m not crazy about this, it’s understandable…four weeks is not much time to get new episodes on the air.

Cuse also revealed that the episodes that will be “lost” this season will likely be rolled into future seasons. There will be 40 additional hours of Lost, as has been promised…it will just result in slightly larger seasons down the road.

Anyway, it’s nice to know that the writers are back at work as we speak, and the production process is once again rolling along.
