"Writer Anthony Spinner is suing ABC and Touchstone Television over the series LOST for allegedly taking his concept for a TV show that he worked on for Sid and Marty Krofft Productions. Spinner claims he was hired in 1977 to write, develop and produce a show about a group of airplane crash survivors who struggle to survive in a jungle where they encounter strange creatures and dangerous characters."
Oh, Pul-EEZE. Every idea that could have EVER be created already has been. Every bad idea has already been knocked off and done right. I mean, shit, you guys ever see the Belkin Nostromo Keyboard Controller they sell for $50? Well, a year before that product hit the market, I not only designed the same damn thing, but marketed it myself and had my own product that I sold. In fact, I was working on my controller at the same time as someone else. My point is, which one of us deserves to sue first? I mean, fuck, all three of us made the same damn thing, and belkin made it better and cheaper. Good for them... I still have one sitting on my desk, I bought it for $30. Hmm... maybe I should sue after all...
