| 30 Jun 2009 | 'Battlestar Galactica' and 'Lost' top TV Saturn Awards |
 "Battlestar Galactica" won its third Saturn Award as best cable/syndicated TV series as well as first-time acting honors for stars Edward James Olmos and Mary McDonnell.
"Lost" took its fourth Saturn as best network series but was blanked in the acting races despite 10 nods. Adrian Pasdar ("Heroes") and Jennifer Carpenter ("Dexter") were the supporting acting Saturn winners while Jimmy Smits took the inaugural guest award for "Dexter."

"Lost" had taken the top network series award for three of its first four seasons. "Heroes" edged it out two years ago for its red-hot debut season. Seven of the "Lost" regulars were nominated this year — leads Matthew Fox and Evangeline Lilly and supporting players Henry Ian Cusick, Michael Emerson, Josh Holloway, Yunjin Kim and Elizabeth Mitchell. Fox has two earlier Saturn wins while Emerson and Mitchell were supporting champs last year. This marks the fifth consecutive loss for Lilly.
The guest acting category was new to this year's Saturn Awards. However, unlike the Emmy Awards, the Saturns did not distinguish between and actors and actresses. Three of the "Lost" stable of guest stars — Alan Dale, Kevin Durand and Sonya Walger — and two from "Heroes" — Kristen Bell and Robert Forster — lost to Jimmy Smits from "Dexter."

| 23 Jun 2009 | Counter Intelligence: "Lost" Footage Billed as Air France Crash |
A Bolivian television station aired clips from "Lost" and claimed the footage from the hit TV show were the final moments aboard the Air France flight that crashed on June 1. What the news team claimed were "exclusive pictures" of the crash found on a Casio Z750 recovered from the wreckage were in fact a scene from the first season of the show in which the plane breaks apart mid-flight and passengers are sucked out of the jetliner. The video also prominently features actress Evangeline Lilly.

| 17 Jun 2009 | Evangeline Lilly Calls Angelina Jolie Her Ideal 'Ice Queen' |
Lost star Evangeline Lilly doesn't want mega-stardom, but if she had to become a Hollywood A-lister, she'd want to do it like – who else? – Angelina Jolie, she says.
"No one knows that woman; she's a complete ice queen, which is perfect," the intensely private Lilly tells Women's Health in the June issue. "Why should she be any more? She doesn't owe us anything."
Lilly, who says she's frequently berated by a colleague on ABC's island drama for forgoing chances at becoming Hollywood's next big thing, says if she had to have Jolie's life, she'd choose only one half of it: the charity work.
"Sure, I'd love to be her, but just the [humanitarian] side," Lilly says.
Even now, she's not entirely happy with the attention she sometimes gets, saying that she get angry when people take her photograph, and that she doesn't understand why people keep asking her if she and former costar Dominic Monaghan are dating.
"If I were to tell you that Sandra Miggum and Henry Pickett are dating, would you ever care? They're completely fictional, so you don't know them," she says. "Well, people don't know us. So why should they care?"
But Lilly says she's confident she'll eventually find a path away from the cameras – and that she knows how to deal with it in the meantime.
"Right now, I'm happy doing a job that's not my ultimate dream," she says. "Even if you're unhappy, just pretend that you're happy. Eventually, your smile will be contagious to yourself. I had to learn that – I used to think, 'I'm being fake,' but you know what? Better to be fake and happy than real and miserable."
