TVGuide.com has an excellent interview with “Lost” executive producer Carlton Cuse — and answers a lot of our questions about season 4. Well, maybe not all of our questions, but at least we find out the “Lost” showrunners plan to make five more episodes for the season.

Now that the writers’ strike is over — and writers are returning to work today — Carlton Cuse has some information about season 4 of “Lost.”

Here are just a couple of snippets from the interview — check out the full interview at TVGuide.com.

TVGuide.com: What came out of your meeting with ABC today?
Cuse: “Damon [Lindelof] and I are going to try and make five more episodes before the end of May, which is ambitious. But, we’ve found ourselves in situation where we had eight episodes of story planned, and we’re going to try to fit that into five hours of the show. Even though it’s going to be very hard to execute, we felt like any less would be doing a disservice to the story we had planned. We really want to give the fans the best possible experience and ending that we can to Season 4.”

TVGuide.com: Any chance that the first of the five episodes will air the week after that last pre-strike episode— thus eliminating any scheduling gap?
Cuse: “No, there’s probably going to be four weeks between the airing of the first batch of episodes and our new episodes.”
