ABC is moving “Lost” out of the way of the “American Idol” juggernaut. Alphabet’s January sked, set to be unveiled later today, has “Lost” moving to Wednesdays at 10 when it returns Feb. 7, insiders said.

Good news for Foxy fans living outside Canada: Matthew’s entire interview with George Stroumboulopoulos on The Hour tomorrow will be posted online at The Hour official website. But for you lucky Canadians, be sure to check your local listings for time and channel. Thanks Rick!
Since my local NBC affiliate cut off the last few seconds of SNL, I downloaded a torrent of the show and have made a clip along with the 2 instances of Matthew announcing Tenacious D. (Thanks to Kate and mine was taken for trying to help!) And another clip has been added from a 2004 ABC press tour with Matthew and Evangeline.
Also, a short Party of Five Season 5 featurette (zipped AVI file, 8.1 Mb.) was added.
Matthew is scheduled to be on Much Music on Wednesday the 6th to talk about We Are Marshall. Thanks Freckles for the tip! My fingers are crossed that you get in.
