There's no returning to Lost's mysterious island, but this isn't the end for the partnership of Terry O'Quinn and Michael Emerson.
NBC has just picked up a new pilot from Lost co-creator J.J. Abrams starring the men better known as John Locke and Benjamin Linus, respectively, according to Vulture.
The untitled project, originally named Odd Jobs, is described as a comedic drama about former black-ops agents.
Alias vets Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec will serve as writers and executive producers, with Abrams and Bryan Burk (Undercovers) also executive-producing.
O'Quinn, 58, won the Emmy for best supporting actor in a drama for Lost back in 2007. Emerson, 56, took home the same honor in 2009. Both were nominated for the series this past year.

I'm sure there will no doubt be some more Lost alum guest starring

More from O'Quinn and Emerson is NEVER a bad thing..

.. without doubt, the two finest actors in the 'Lost' cast!

A show with the two of them has a lot of promise, I'll be keeping an eye on this

Any idea when this would air etc?

Well that sucks, I was hoping it'd be something like a Jan/Feb start

Emerson and O'Quinn were talking about this for quite a while. Awesome to see it's actually happening.

Sounds good,

Easily the best two actors on Lost, I wonder will there be ant nods?
