    Terry O' Quinn and Michael Emerson both deserved the Emmy for their roles in Lost. I just wish more recognition would have been given to the talented women on Lost. Especially both Elizabeth Mitchell and Yunjin Kim. They should of both been at least nominated.

    Crazy looking back at old acceptance speeches and I find most are very brief, with a small anecdote about acting, shouting out family, and praise to fellow nominees.

    Rewatching Lost and falling in love with Sawyer all over again... And Holloway is excellent. He can be cocky, angry and dangerous, charming, vulnerable, sometimes all of that together. O'Quinn was amazing, Fox was really really good, but given that every one of the actors on Lost was great, I don't think he deserved the nomination as much as O'Quinn or Emerson or Andrews did, or as much as Holloway or Daniel Dae Kim would have deserved it

    • @iamworstgamer
      @iamworstgamer 3 года назад

      After watching lost multiple times. I think it was about the characters, Locke, jack, and ben were complex characters. Other characters were not as complex as much. Besides those three the other character is Desmond. So they got nominations because their characters were complicated to play. Jack's character was way more complex and intense than sawyer's. Charlie was a better character than sawyer, Hugo was too. But Charlie and Hugo were more linear characters.
