Question:
What did you do right out of college?
October 22nd, 2009 at 1:14 am
Did you derive some inspiration for Ben from your character in Saw I? There are certain similarities…both characters are sometimes forced to commit evil against their better judgment. They may not necessarily be evil people, but are put into evil situations. Anyway, you are awesome and congrats on the well-deserve Emmy.

What is the most important moment for you since the starting of lost?!
Did lost change in your opinion the way shows are made and seen?!
Love your work, and coming from theater even gave more reality to character!
Congratulations!! hadji Ling

I’m sure your work keeps you extremely busy, dashing from the island of Hawai’i to the mainland, but… do you have a favorite sport? Favorite sports team? Any of your own athletic prowess? Thanks for your time! Keep up the great work.

From the season 6 episodes you have done so far, one word to describe it.
October 22nd, 2009 at 1:44 am
How soon till we get a Ben-centric episode?
October 22nd, 2009 at 1:49 am
Will you be looking to do any comedic work after Lost? I read that you have on stage, would love to see it on the screen!
October 22nd, 2009 at 2:00 am
To Michael Emerson…I LOVE Ben Linus! Exactly how much fun IS it playing such a shady, twisted character?
October 22nd, 2009 at 2:37 am
ask him how long he can hold his breath under water lol idk
October 22nd, 2009 at 3:10 am
Michael: You are so charming. I think you are adorable. What goes through your mind when you hear women say, “You are the sexiest man alive”? You make my heart pound!!! As well you are a brilliant actor and I cannot wait to see what you do after Lost. Congrats on the well deserved Emmy.

Congratulations SL-Lost, for capturing the interview. I think Emerson is a good man, humble, and has stayed true to his passion of acting, thus his award seems to be more life-long. Does he agree? Also, what does he think of the acting abilities of the other actors: Matthew Fox, Evangiline, etc.

Question:
Michael, are you aware that you are a heartthrob among Lost fans? My college friends and I can’t get enough of you! :*

Annie has been forgotten or made fun of by the Lost community, but would you like to see that part of Ben’s past revisited or would you like to know what happened to her? Do you think she will ever be brought up again?
October 22nd, 2009 at 6:30 am
Question for Michael Emerson:
Hey Michael,
I am curious… How has your life changed since your rise to fame from LOST? And with the series coming to a close, do you plan to fade away from the lime light? Or perhaps look to do even BIGGER (but not particularly better) things?
I love you and commend you on your phenomenal work!
Best wishes to you and Carrie!,

I think I speak for all of us when I say that we would all value an answer from Michael to our question…
If you were a hypnotist, which hypnotic techniques will have come in handy as an actor by the end of your time on Lost?
October 22nd, 2009 at 10:37 am
What do you like in a woman (not only physically) ?
October 22nd, 2009 at 2:10 pm
To Michael:
Hello. In last scene of 5th season you made a brilliant monologue. After that, Jacob said “what about you?”. It looks like he wants you to kill him. What do you think about it?
October 22nd, 2009 at 2:48 pm
My question is: Have you ever been to Second life? What do you think about it?
October 22nd, 2009 at 2:54 pm
M. Emerson:
Have you shot the pivotal Ben-centric episode of season 6 yet?
If you have, does it bring a satisfying conclusion of your characters arc?
If you haven’t, what expectations do you have for that episode in particular?
Congratulations with the well deserved emmy!
Many greetings from a norwegian fan.
October 22nd, 2009 at 6:26 pm
Do you think the conflict between your character and Desmond is going to reach a dramatic and bloody climax?
October 22nd, 2009 at 6:28 pm
@ M. Emerson
1-We know that your character Ben travels a lot through time and space. Do you travel a lot like him (through space of course) ? If yes, where are your favorite places ?
2-You seem to be very committed to the cause of the equality in marriage. Since when are you involved and do you have any special motivation to do so ?
3-ABC announced that no footage will be shown in the promos this season to avoid any spoilers. What do you think of this decision ?
October 22nd, 2009 at 6:49 pm
Mr Emerson,
What has surprised you the most, so far, about Season 6? Were you able to predict any of what has happened so far?
October 22nd, 2009 at 7:07 pm
Mr. Emerson,
With it being the final season of LOST, deaths of major characters can be expected. Do you think Ben will survive or suffer a gruesome fate?
October 22nd, 2009 at 8:20 pm
Michael,
Has there ever been a moment where Jack Bender or perhaps even another director has asked you to change a choice you made during filming because they may be aware of some upcoming revelation that your choices might contradict? For example, when Ben was being held in the hatch during season two, were you given any direction that might have lead you to believe that Ben was actually the leader of the Others or were you simply allowed to play the scene as if you really believed you were just a pawn?
Do you have any plans to return to the stage after Lost?
October 23rd, 2009 at 12:09 am
Hi
Ah what to ask ME that has not been asked in the past 5 seasons? Quite a challenge for us fans.
In all those “lets beat up Ben” scenes has Michael ever actually been hit, ( by accident of course) and by whom if it did happen.
There have been so many beating scenes I can’t imagine Micheal coming through all of them
with out an actual injury.
I adore ME and each performance he has given us and so proud that he won another Emmy.
Could we please have a Henry Ian Cusick/Desmond interview??? You would have such a great response to his being on here as Des has a million fans if not more I’m certain and all would love a
personal appearance, we don’t get many.

You’ve always had fantastic roles since you began work on Lost…first the mysterious Henry Gale, then the leader of the Others, then a prisoner, and recently re-gathering the Oceanic Six and being under the thumb of evil Locke. Is your season 6 role as unique as roles you’ve had in the past and is it personally satisfactory for you, being the last role in Lost you’ll have?
October 23rd, 2009 at 11:54 pm
What does a typical day of shooting LOST looks like? How many working hours do you have and how do you relax after work?
Since your first appearance in Rousseaus net you were the best thing in an already perfect show. Thank U!

hi Michael
benjamin Lunis was there any influence on your life?
What are your expectations for the Final season?
October 25th, 2009 at 3:54 pm
Hey Michael!
Looking back over the 2nd-5th Seasons, what moments have been your favorites and stand out to you? Also, who is your favorite character on Lost?
October 28th, 2009 at 11:18 pm
Hello Mr. Emerson,
I caught your interview on Jimmy Fallon, which show-cased some of your artwork and sketches from your illustration career, which were far out and very brilliant, by the way!
Now that you have the notoriety from your work on LOST, have you ever considered publishing your art work to a broader audience?
Thank you for your amazing work on LOST, and congrats on the well deserved Emmy.
