O'Quinn shopping show reteaming him with Emerson as suburban hit men (TVG)

By Nancy Tartaglione

TV Guide is reporting that "Lost" star Terry O'Quinn is shopping a spin-off of sorts that would reteam him with co-star Michael Emerson. "Lost" executive producers, Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, insist they are opposed to any continuation of the series past May's finale, but O'Quinn's proposal would see the duo shed their Locke/Smokey/Ben roles and rather set them up as suburban hit men juggling family issues.

O'Quinn told TVG he's shopping a bible for a TNT-type show and said he has spoken with "Lost" creator JJ Abrams about the project. "I really hope this works out because Michael would be in his prime in this. We'd play kind of awkward partners," said O'Quinn.

"It's very sweet of him," Emerson told TVG. "I'm all in favor of it. Any reason to work with Terry again."
