Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse are interviewed on Jimmy Kimmel Live on February 2, 2010. Two of the head writers of the show discuss the premiere of season 6 and what is to come for the final season. (Make sure to see videos part 1 & part 2 – both on this page)
Jimmy Kimmel asks if the following things are coincidence or not. Don’t take any of these answers into considerations for theories & whatnot, Damon & Carlton like to mess with us and are pretty silly in interviews.
Desmond disappears when Charlie is seen on the plane: coincidence.

The season premiere was on groundhogs day & in the premiere, events are happening over again but differently: absolutely planned… ah, no. coincidence.
The space between the A & X in the premiere’s title, “LA X”: absolutely planned

Jack spills his vodka while pouring his drink: not a coincidence… and he has one less bottle this time (as compared to season 1 pilot)
Hurley picks up a book by Kierkegaard (Fear and Trembling): intentional, they pick the books. the books have themes that tie into the themes of the show.

We will see much more of the numbers coming up soon.
