Henry Ian Cusick, on a happier day

A member of the LOST production crew filed a lawsuit yesterday in Los Angeles Superior Court, suing Henry Ian Cusick, ABC, and Grass Skirts Productions for sexual battery, hostile work environment, and wrongful termination. She alleged that in October, 2007, Cusick, among other things, “placed his hand on Plaintiff’s buttocks … then began to caress the back of Plaintiff’s body while making moaning sounds,” and that he put his face on and squeezed her breasts. She complained to her supervisor, and a week and a half later, she was fired.

Ask Lost: Daniel Dae Kim (Jin)

Daniel Dae Kim gets his turn to answer viewer questions in this third installment of “Ask Lost.” He talks about how far Jin has come as a character, which other characters he would like to play, and why he loves living in Hawaii.

Ask Lost — Jorge Garcia (Hurley)

Jorge Garcia talks about what he’d like Hurley to do that he hasn’t done before, what his favorite lottery number is, and why he’d like to see the show move to Egypt.

Ask Lost — Michael Emerson (Ben) answers viewer questions

ABC started a new feature a few weeks ago, “Ask LOST,” where the actors answer viewer questions.

Michael Emerson was the first one up. He comes across here as articulate, smart, very nice — and not at all scary. I like the sound of his voice here; he has the diction of a stage actor, which of course is what he was for many years.

Jorge Garcia (Hurley) sings even more!

I love these “actors singing” videos.

Here, Jorge sings the bluesy “Mustang Sally” with a group comprised entirely of actors from various TV shows at the Netflix Live concert in August, 2008.

Jorge isn’t listed in the promo material, so maybe he was a surprise guest.

And here’s a clip where Jorge is singing “I Feel Good” in character, as Hurley. Notice how a wave from the ocean provides a final beat! I love Hurley’s last line too. It’s from Episode 1×21, The Greater Good.

Terry O’Quinn (Locke) sang — and played a psychotic killer!

Here’s another entry in the “LOST actors who sing” series. It’s a strange one. Pay attention to the words:

You think his kids had Daddy issues? πŸ˜‰

The video clip is from 1989, when O’Quinn was on MTV’s The Big Picture. He was promoting Stepfather II, a horror film starring O’Quinn as “The Stepfather” who escapes from a mental hospital, poses as a marriage counselor, finds a new family, and kills a lot of people.

Here are the trailers for Stepfather I (1987) and Stepfather II (1989), which are unintentionally funny, and filled with scary … hairstyles.

There are so many good singers in the talented LOST cast!

Here is Josh Holloway, before he was Sawyer, singing a country song.

The song was made for a 2002 movie Western called Mi Amigo, but it ended up not making it into the movie itself, only into the DVD extras.

The movie got a unanimous rating of one star on Amazon! It must have been an amazingly bad movie. I can’t remember ever seeing anything else on Amazon that was rated only one star.

One of the Amazon reviewers called it β€œthe worst movie ever.” Ouch! Poor Josh!

The song itself, though, is very nice. The video can’t be embedded, but you can watch it on YouTube here: Josh Holloway sings

Hmmm … I wonder if calling Sawyer “LaFleur” might be an in-joke, a reference to Holloway having previously worked for a company named “Azalea”?
