Harold Perrineau Gets Lost and Found | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 3/20/2008
Harold Perrineau is back on the island ? and ready to talk about why he left. "It only goes about five feet deep," Harold Perrineau says, nodding in the direction of the swimming pool in his backyard. "If I stand in it, part of me's still above water." From the hint of relief in his voice, you'd think a shallow pool was a major selling point when Perrineau bought the unassuming Los Angeles home more than a year ago. You wouldn't be entirely wrong. As the T-shirt- and jeans-clad actor, 44, ... read more
A Heartbreaking Loss on Lost | Roush Dispatch | 3/14/2008
My reactions to Lost are almost always extreme. Extreme excitement, nervous confusion, fear and joy and wonder all mixed up in one spectacularly emotional bundle. This week, Lost earned the ultimate compliment in the Roush playbook. It made me cry.Yunjin Kim and Daniel Dae Kim have long been among my favorite actors on the show, and their backstory is among the most romantically resonant. The island saved Sun and Jin’s rocky marriage, a union tested by class differences and the... read more
Feeling Lost? Here's Our Guide to Michael Dawson | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 1/19/2008
Our favorite castaways thus far have been on the island a few months, but for Lost fans, it's been more than 260 days since Jack's super-freaky flash-forward. As the Jan. 31 season premiere (finally) draws closer, TVGuide.com is offering daily profiles ? "refreshers," if you will ? of the key players in ABC's island-based odyssey.

Ask Matt | 8/10/2007
There are two things I love about television: Lost and surprises that really take your breath away. So can you please explain why in the world ABC would reveal during the TCA press tour that Harold Perrineau would be returning to the show next season? Where is the element of surprise if you let the audience know the surprise before it actually happens? Had Michael appeared on Lost next season with absolutely no advance warning, it would've been one of the biggest surprises on television. So ... read more
Comic-Con Gives the Fans What They Want | TV Guide News Report | 7/30/2007

ABC at TCA: Lost in Translation | Roush Dispatch | 7/25/2007
Get lost, ABC. That was the hostile undercurrent behind much of the questioning for ABC's entertainment president Stephen McPherson Wednesday morning. We critics can be a surly group, especially this late in the TCA press tour. (ABC has the bad luck to be up to bat on the final two days of the three-week hype-a-thon.) But give us something legitimate to gripe about — in this case, the decision by Lost's producers to skip the TCA and instead address the game-changing events behind Lost's... read more
Live Press Tour Diary: ABC, Day 1 | Ausiello Report | 7/25/2007
8:54 am: We're in the homestretch, folks, and that can only mean one thing: Critics have begun recycling their old underwear. That explains the wall of stank I just walked through entering the Beverly Hilton's ballroom.8:58 am: As we wait for ABC president Stephen McPherson to take the stage for the exec session, let me take a moment to extend a big thank-you to the generous folks at ABC Studios who had a case of Diet Raspberry Snapple shipped to my room yesterday afternoon.

Watercooler Talk: A Lost Castaway Will Be Found | Today's News: Our Take | 5/15/2007
Spoiler alert! Appearing on TV Guide Channel's TV Watercooler (in an installment encoring Tuesday at 8 pm/ET), 28 Weeks Later's Harold Perrineau hints that a familiar figure will resurface during the season finale of ABC's Lost — that of either Michael or Walt (played by Malcolm David Kelley), both of whom were last seen motorboating away to Jacob-knows-where.

Original Lost Castaway to Face New Demons | Today's News: Our Take | 2/7/2007
Calling into question the ultimate fate of Lost's Michael (and, by association, Walt), Harold Perrineau has come on board Demons, CBS' pilot about a Jesuit priest who performs exorcisms. (Perrineau will play the holy man's best friend.) According to Variety, the original Lost cast member, last seen in the Season 2 finale, is in "first position" on Demons, meaning it's his primary obligation should it get picked up for the fall. OK, Vincent is so going to have issues. I mean, first Shannon and... read more
