The Official “LOST” Facebook Page Updates Timeline to Match Events Within the Show Dan Koelsch, March 30, 2012 You may not be following the Facebook page for ABC’s LOST considering it’s been off the air for almost two years, but you real fans may want to start. In honor of castmember Henry Ian Cusick (a.k.a. Desmond Hume) starring in the new ABC series Scandal, the LOST Facebook timeline has been updated to include some events from the show involving Desmond. It’s not surprising to see ABC use the Facebook page of another series to cross-promote, since LOST has over 9 million likes on the social networking site. The page was also used to help promote ABC’s other mystery drama The River to mixed results.
