Lost’s Michael is Found Again
by E. Christopher Clark | Tuesday, February 26, 2008

Wired and Entertainment Weekly have “broken” the news that Lost‘s favorite turncoat, Michael Dawson, will be returning to the show this season. No shit, Sherlock! You don’t even need to have visited a spoiler site to have figured that out. Anybody who’s paid attention to the credits that roll at the beginning of each episode could have figured that out. Harold Perrineau, the actor who plays Michael, has been listed in a starring capacity since the first episode of the season.
Michael’s backstory has always bored me to tears, but I am definitely interested in finding out what he’s been up to since selling his “friends” out to the Others at the end of season two. My theory is that he’s Ben’s spy on the boat, but we’ll see.
How about you, my Lost-lovin’ friends? How do you feel about Michael? What do you think he’s been up to?

Thanks for the Pixies reference. Made my day! :-)
It blew my mind when he shot Ana Lucia, too (even though I was watching it almost a year later and had an idea of what was coming because I had read up on the show prior to watching the DVDs).
My guess on Walt: He passed back and forth through whatever it is that Desmond and Sayid just passed through so many times and that he aged a little each time. Something to do with the difference between how time passes on the island versus the outside world.

1) He’s definitely Ben’s guy on the boat.
2) I know what you mean about his story not being the most interesting, but it still blew my mind when he shot Ana Lucia.
2a) I am un chien… ANA LUCIA! I am un chien! okay i’ll stop.
3) The real question is: are they going to explain why Walt is now taller and older?
