Michael Emerson talks about what it’s like to be on Lost

The Honolulu Star-Bulletin has a great article on Michael Emerson, the actor that plays Henry Gale/Benjamin Linus on Lost. It talks about his background in theater, what the differences are between being an actor on TV and an actor on stage, and how he approaches acting roles.

He also reveals a few hints about what’s coming next in Lost:


“He’s vulnerable now,” he said, referring to the trauma under Jack’s surgical knife that could lead to Ben’s demise. “There’s much more operating room drama to come; the operation has even more complications that lead to a number of crises,” he added, carefully choosing his words. New, powerful characters also will be introduced, and “there will be a struggle for power within the Others’ community.” Then he paused and smiled. “I have to be cagey about what I say.”

Rumors of Jack’s Death on Lost

You might have been hearing the rumors about Jack getting killed off on the show next year when it returns. Are you worried about that happening?

Just to alleviate your fears, there’s a New York Post article today that talks about it. The show’s writers dismiss this completely and say that “This is the most insane rumor regarding ‘Lost’ to date”.

You can breathe again.

What was the plan for Mr. Eko?

Spoilers ahead!

There are a number of stories out this morning after Mr. Eko’s death last night. The New York Post as a some quotes from the producers about Eko’s demise, and MSNBC has an article that discusses Mr. Eko’s impact on the show.

I’m sure this was all planned out in advance, but it sure seems like if someone gets in trouble with the law in real life, their characters aren’t far away from dying on the show.

I told a friend last night that I think Bernard is going to be pretty upset about Eko’s death… After all, he’s the last one from the tail section that hasn’t been killed or captured.

I think it’s also pretty clear that the theory that “Smokey the Cloud” can manifest itself as a real creature, whether it be Jack’s dad, Kate’s horse, Walt, or Eko’s brother Yemi… well, I think that theory just got a lot stronger.

A theory about what’s going on with Desmond

What the heck is going on with Desmond? I have an idea, but there are a few theories that I’d like to go over first.

Hurley shot one down right away… Desmond is NOT the Hulk, despite is lack of pants. And thank goodness for that anyway, it would be pretty disappointing for Desmond to go all “Bill Bixby

Lost Search Engine

I added a special Lost Search engine that uses Google Search and helps give more specialized results for when you’re searching for things related to LOST. It’s available on the right hand side of the page.

I’ll continue to improve the results by adding more Lost sites to the list it searches, so if you know of a good site, add it to the comments section below, and I’ll add suggestions to the list!

What Factions Are There In The Others Camp?

Spoilers ahead, so if you haven’t seen all the shows up to Season 3, episode 2, don’t read this…

Wednesday we’re going to hit the third episode of Season three. We have a pretty good sense there are different factions within The Others camp, but we still don’t know for sure which Others are lined up with each other.

We do have a pretty good hint about Alexandra; she helped Claire escape from The Staff station (the medical facility), and she is trying to figure out what happened to Karl. If she were totally “in line” with whomever is really in charge, she probably wouldn’t have done that either of those things.

Danny and Colleen are pretty chummy and they both seem to be completely on board with whatever Ben says.

Ben has a “I guess I’m not in the book club” and “You never make soup for me” attitude with Juliet, and frankly it’s a little annoying. Ok, we get it! Ben’s being snotty with Juliet. Woop de doo.

From the scene in the book club meeting, Juliet seems pretty darn fed up with people cow-towing to Ben.

…And that’s just this group of people at the Hydra station. There might even be “Other Others” elsewhere on the island.

Anyway, the thing that’s a little creepy about how Juliet is handling the whole thing is that while she’s not in Ben’s pocket, she sure is carrying out the orders. I thought it was a little disturbing when Sawyer said that Juliet would have “no problem” shooting Kate.

Lost has a habit of introducing characters that aren’t exactly what they first appear to be. Is Juliet, who seems sympathetic now going to turn out to be a really nasty character? Is Ben going to turn out to be better than he appears to be right now?

Things you might have missed in Episode 2

Here are a few things that happened during Lost Season 3 Episode 2, “The Glass Ballerina”, that you might have missed:

Lost Spoilers Ahead

You’ve been warned….

The dock where Sayid tied up the sailboat is called the Pala Ferry. This is the same dock named in the Pearl orientation video.

The girl that talked to Kate from the bushes is named Alexandra; she’s Danielle’s (The French Woman’s) daughter. Alexandra cryptically mentioned to Kate that “You’re not even supposed to be in that cage

Is This Why Locke Ended Up in a Wheelchair?

In the last Locke flashback episode, we saw a couple of thugs come to find out where their money was. Locke’s father was long gone by the end of the episode.

So, we know that Locke ended up in a wheelchair, but how did he end up there? Did the guys that were looking for their money find out that Locke was involved in recovering it? That would be the obvious thing, which is exactly why I don’t think that’s what is going to happen.

There’s been a strong theme throughout Lost that the “Lost-aways

Character Questions Will Be Answered This Season

The New York Post has a long article on questions that will be answered about the LOST characters this season.

One of the questions that’s been bothering me since season one has been, how will they explain Walt’s rapid growth? It’s only been 60 or so days on the show, and it’s been three years of “real world” time. Kids that age grow up quick. They plan on giving us an explanation for that this season.

Other questions they mention in the article are:

How did Locke get in that wheelchair in the first place?

What are The Others doing? What are up against?

Who is Sun’s baby’s father?

All will be revealed…. well, maybe not all right away, but we’ll get some answers this season. They also promise we’ll get to know just about everything about The Others this season too.

The second episode will center around Locke, and the third will center around Sun and Jin.

Five more episodes to go until the mid-season cliffhanger!
