So what exactly was Charlie Pace doing on that promo for ABC?  He's died in Lost ways back, so unless they decide to revive him (pretty much like what they're doing to Emilie de Ravin, or so it seems), that appearance on the network's fall promo, alongside Grey's Anatomy's Patrick Dempsey, Cougar Town's Courteney Cox and Modern Family's Ed O'Neill, would be pretty weird.  Or a stunt decision.  But it can't be there for nothing, right?

Well, turns out Dominic Monaghan isn't returning to Lost, which will air its final season next year.  But, it was confirmed that he is returning to ABC, in a brand new series.  Suddenly, the world lit up with questions.  Which one?  There are lots of new shows on that network, right?  Well, if you'll listen to the folks at IGN, they might have an answer: Flash Forward.

Yep, that show which is being touted as a companion series to Lost, as that show makes its final farewell.  Makes sense, right?  Putting in someone from a concluding series to a series that's being set as its replacement?  Anyway, that series, which will premiere in the fall, is based on Robert J. Sawyer's novel, and is basically about what happens to the world when everybody in it blacks out for roughly two minutes--and wakes up seeing the results of the global event that caused it, as well as visions of their own future
