henryrocks, you rock, you rock, you Rah ha ha ha hock!! I'll be buying the tape you suggested, and if I can figure out how, I will post some screen caps. I'm not seeing the eyebrow thing on the stunt woman page. Where should I be looking? Kristen from E!, God bless her, I know she's a LOST fan, but can she be any less original by thinking Michael is creepy? I must have a screw loose for thinking that the reasons she has for thinking he's creepy, like Henry being super-intelligent, duplicitous and manipulative, are all really hott! I loved him from the moment he looked at Sayid and asked if he had lost someone he loved on the island. It was such a complete change of character. His face showed that he was truly interested in Sayid's reaction to loss. NOT to say I detected anything like sympathy from Henry, rather I saw a deep interest in the workings of human nature, and I loved him. Still do.  |

I'm not seeing the eyebrow thing on the stunt woman page. Where should I be looking? I had the wrong link awhile ago; it should be fixed. Basically someone asks about that in the comments, and she responds saying that there was no eyebrow-shaving; it's all makeup. (whew - I remember hearing about how the guy playing Wormtongue in Lord of the Rings (a stereotypical Michael role, if more overtly creepy- looking) had to have his shaved, repeatedly - he'd come back after periods of time where they didn't need him, and shave off the eyebrows that had just grown back. They did this to the point where he was worried they'd stop growing back.  In the name of art, huh?) Don't even. During my googling (-ha) I ran across this person - obviously not "one of us," a Michael/Henry fanatic. She was going over the Lost finale in her post: "...Kudos to the writers on the show for the Henry character; Michael Emerson, the actor who portrays the evil genius, has added tension and drama to the somewhat dragging (read: boring) episodes of late, and manages to look hot in bandages while doing it. Not many people can, you know. What? Right; the killing. ..." See?? We are totally sane. ... well, I see what you're saying - it's what's attracting you that disturbs you. ... and that's why you have us ;D |

henryrocks, thanks for the reassurance! A while back I wondered if we'd ever see him in a romantic lead. Looks like he played the quintessential romantic lead on stage, back in the day: Probably the only way to sustain an audience's interest as the tragedy unfolds is for Romeo and Juliet to be played by irresistibly fascinating performers. I saw Romeo and Juliet done a decade ago in Metropolitan Park, with the great Michael Emerson, now winning raves on Broadway, as Romeo, and the gorgeous Shirley Knight (now Shirley Sachs) as the doomed lovers. They (especially Emerson) were good enough to hold the audience's interest.jacksonville.com/tu-online/stories/091599/dsr_0915rome.html |

Last summer my mom and I went to see a theater performance of Romeo and Juliet and it was great. It would have been cooler if Emerson was there. haha. <3 He must have been fantastic!  |

Romeo?? That's - that's... I have no words.
I suppose all the best we'll ever get to see (or hear) is that really lewd passage in the Four Blind Mice audiobook that amidala mentioned. That really is not right.

Now that he's on LOST, which draws a mega-million count audience, fans like us are going to make their presence known. Smart casting directors will want to tap into the hot-for-Michael audience. Hopefully, this means some romantic roles for our man in the future. He did display some affection with his Jumping Off Bridges wife, but no kissing. Does this man ever kiss anyone on camera?  ? (strangling doesn't count ;-) that is, besides the little girl in Saw!! (how beautiful was that when Zep kissed her on top of her head after she finished talking to her father on the cel phone?) I stumbled across an audiobook called ALL THE KINGS MEN. by Robert Warren. Expensive for an audio book, but being a Michael Emerson junky has its price www.simplyaudiobooks.com/This landmark book is a loosely fictionalized account of Governor Huey Long of Louisiana, one of the nation's most astounding politicians. All the King's Men tells the story of Willie Stark, a southern-fried politician who builds support by appealing to the common man and playing dirty politics with the best of the back-room deal-makers. Though Stark quickly sheds his idealism, his right-hand man, Jack Burden -- who narrates the story -- retains it and proves to be a thorn in the new governor's side. Stark becomes a successful leader, but at a very high price, one that eventually costs him his life. The award-winning book is a play of politics, society and personal affairs, all wrapped in the cloak of history. I see only his name as the narrator! Meaning it's all Michael all the time!  |

He kissed that woman in Law and Order Criminal Intent. Uhm, I think it was the same woman that played the victim in Silence of the Lambs. Ya', know. The bad guy kept her in a hole and told her .."It rubs the lotion on it's skin.".. ..and I think that guy is from Monk!..haha Ok, I'm done rambling.  |

YES!!
You're absolutely correct.
The wife from the Law and Order episode, actress Brooke Smith, played Catherine in Silence of the Lambs.
There was a hello-honey-I'm-home smooch when he got out of his car.
Good call, :B !

That really is not right. Which one was that? I recently listened to that one and it was great. He is the best narrator. The other guy was really good, but I would like to have heard him do th ewhole thing instead of just doing the bad guys parts. It would have been interesting to see how he would have handled the romantic parts of the book. |

Oh no, no, no, no, no , no!.........lol In a previous post I referred to the lewd passages involving young, female, Vietnamese prostitutes. Not that Michael doesn't do a lovely Vietnamese, teenage girl voice, it was just shocking to hear those particular words coming out of his mouth. I was complaining that it's not a good enough consulation prize to have those words ringing in my ears rather than, say, Michael reciting Romeo's lines.  |
