Hawaii-based production of ABC's hit television series "LOST" resumed in earnest today, ending three uncertain months washed out by the WGA writers' strike. Cast and crew were working before dawn, and the Hawaii Film Studio lot on the slopes of Diamond Head was buzzing all day.

There are two new episodes of the current fourth season of "LOST" left to air, followed by a month-long hiatus as production catches up. Episode 4x09, currently being filmed, will air on April 24. It is the first of five episodes that will close out the season (rather than eight as originally planned).

UPDATE: The film trucks spotted along Pali Highway on Monday morning were for another production (see comments, thanks Tim!). But I did get a thumbs-up e-mail from the set at 6 a.m., so cameras are rolling!
