Awww ... The Babies of TV's 'Lost'

Whether you're a casual viewer of ABC's "Lost" or, like me, completey and utterly obsessed, you probably know that children play a key role in the drama's multiple storylines.

With that in mind, the smarties over at New York Magazine's Web site put together a photo-gallery tribute to the babies on TV's most blogged-about show. Even if you gave up on the series after Boone died way back in season one, the gallery is worth a look because these little ones really are cute.

My vote for the cutest? Man, it's a tough call, but I have to go with Ji-Yeon, whose tiny mouth looks like a sweet, perfectly tied little bow. But what do you think? Does Aaron or Lil' Walt out-cute her? Cast your vote with a comment. Oh, and while you're at it, feel free to offer your theory on what the smoke monster is. Inquiring minds, both young and old, want to know.

Want Your Baby to Star on 'Lost'?

Technically, it could happen. Julie Carlson, the extras casting director for the hit ABC series, is seeking a new set of infants to play the role of Aaron, son of Claire and son of future Kate, on the fifth season of "Lost." (If you watch the show, you understand how the kid can have two moms. If you don't, well, spend some time at Lostpedia after you finish reading this blog post.)

Carlson is looking for babies who weigh between 10 and 17 pounds and have blond hair and either blue or green eyes. If you think your kid fits the bill, you can send a photo and phone number to: Julie Carlson, "Lost" cast, 510 18th Ave., Honolulu, HI 96816. One important catch: Since the show is shot in Hawaii, it would probably help if you live there, unless you are willing to relocate at a moment's notice. (Um, if it got me closer to Josh Holloway, yeah, I'd consider it.) They begin filming the season later this month.

By the way, even though Aaron is a boy, female infants have definitely been cast in the role. In fact, over the weekend, all 16 of the babies that played Aaron last season had a little reunion in Honolulu. Thirteen of those kids were girls.

"Females tend to have the rounder face and they don't age as quickly," Carlson told the Honolulu Advertiser. "Plus, the boys squirm more."

I always knew that Aaron kid looked different in each episode. Now I know why. If someone would just explain what happened to the island during last season's finale, I'd feel even better.
