The MEFB forum members sent a package to Michael Emerson sending him cards and good wishes for a happy birthday. He was so kind in his answer. He actually sent me a personal note, which I am not sharing here, but I am sharing with the board members. Suffice to say that I love the man. I also wrote him for permission to post this picture and he gave it to me:



Aren't they adorable? They were doing Hamlet at the MacCarter Theater in Princeton, NJ. He was Claudius and she was Ophelia. They look so much in love. 

He also autographed my LOST magazine for me:

Here are two new articles that mention Michael Emerson. Both are similiar in nature, but at this point, anything that mentions Michael Emerson or LOST is absolutly welcoming. Read more... )

ABC's "Lost" Begins Work in Hawaii: Upcoming Year Scarier Than Ever (Wenn)

But it did make a rebound last season in the final shows.  And now Emmy-nominated LOST actor Michael Emerson is spilling the beans that this season will be busier than ever.  According to the Hollywood Exclusive shooting is fired up again in Hawaii, and things are looking bad (or at least scarier) for the island dwellers.

According to syndicated writers Marilyn Beck and Stacy Jenel Smith the series' forthcoming episodes "are going to be scarier" than anyone seen on the island so far. That's the word from Emmy-nominated "Lost" actor Michael Emerson -- and that's saying something, considering Emerson's character seemed to personify evil last season.

Emerson -- who plays Ben Linus, leader of the castaways known as "The Others" -- reminds that at the end of last season's finale, Jack Sawyer (Matt Fox) was trying to signal a boat offshoer in hopes of being rescued despite Ben's dire warnings that "it could be the death of everyone on the island."

According to the report, Emerson predicts there will be yet another shift in power between the combatant inhabitants on the hit ABC drama when it returns midseason. Although he notes that none of the cast knows for sure what's going to happen this season, "things tend to go from bad to worse on this show, so it's fair to assume anyone else who arrives on the island couldn't be a happy event."

LOOK OUT: The "Lost" troupe has just started shooting again in Hawaii, and things are looking bad — in a good way — for the island dwellers, whose show sputtered a little bit but found its mojo again toward the end of last season.

The newcomers on the series' forthcoming episodes "are going to be scarier" than anyone seen on the island so far. That's the word from Emmy-nominated "Lost" actor Michael Emerson — and that's saying something, considering Emerson's character seemed to personify evil last season.

Emerson — who plays Ben Linus, leader of the castaways known as "The Others" — reminds that at the end of last season's finale, Jack Sawyer (Matt Fox) was trying to signal a boat offshore in hopes of being rescued despite Ben's dire warnings that "it could be the death of everyone on the island."

Now Emerson predicts there will be yet another shift in power between the combatant inhabitants on the hit ABC drama when it returns midseason. Although he notes that none of the cast knows for sure what's going to happen this season, "things tend to go from bad to worse on this show, so it's fair to assume anyone else who arrives on the island couldn't be a happy event."

Emerson says changes are afoot for Ben, too. The mythical Jacob, whom Ben consistently maintained was the real leader of "The Others," was finally seen briefly last season — "If you looked close and had TiVo," quips Emerson. "He was this big, shadowy dude. I don't know if we're going to see a personification of Jacob this season, but I think, as the source of power on the island, we have him on our hands. He's that force or power that is important now, and it looks like he or it has chosen John Locke (Terry O'Quinn). So it looks to me like Ben is no longer the anointed manager of the island. It looks like Jacob only has one helper at a time, and it might not be Ben anymore, so Ben is vulnerable now."

Be afraid. Be very, very afraid.

Actor Michael Emerson portrayed a feisty Maui the demigod, then chilled the audience as a tiny old Japanese woman innkeeper in an obake (ghost) story, with Terry O'Quinn and Daniel Dae Kim as wayward travelers.

Emerson even learned pidgin, with the help of intense coaching from Honolulu Theatre for Youth company actor BullDog.

The result: The actors from the cast of ABC-TV's "Lost" helped raise nearly $20,000 for the Honolulu Theatre for Youth, with selected readings from HTY's 2007-2008 season of plays, in a benefit that drew a packed house last Sunday at Tenney Theatre.

Spectators paid $100 to $300 for a chance to see and hear "Lost" principals — in a theatrical setting instead of a windswept beach or amid a tangle of jungle vines — and meet them at a post-show reception.

(Editorial note from Spicedogs: What amazes me about this article is that they zeroed in on Michael Emerson's performance only. He must have wovw'ed them for sure. But all of us who are his fans are not surprised.)
