Some of the best Lost spoilers are often reveal through the casting calls put out by the show.  Luckily, Ausiello has recently posted the following three casting calls for Lost:

• "Captain Bird" - a charismatic and intelligent ex-military man in his 40s or 50s who is concerned about the safety of his crew.  The captain will appear in this season's fifteenth episode as well as the finale
• "Young Jeff" - a ten year old with a Southern accent and a deep anger hiding his pain
• "Doug" - a strong and authoritative Southern man in his forties who is forced to deliver bad news to his buddy
