Michael Emerson ("Lost") — Everyone loves to hate Emerson’s character Ben. A clever, cold-hearted villain of the worst kind, Ben is a master of manipulation, always playing on peoples’ worst fears. He’s outrageously evil, but what makes Emerson’s performance so riveting is that he sometimes manages to make Ben seem almost… sympathetic! Against my better judgment, there have been times when even I have fallen prey to those huge, round, unblinking eyes and believed every cunning word. Emerson makes me loathe Ben as a magnificently bad guy, but I’m also fascinated by him and think he makes a worthy adversary for those we consider the good guys, like Locke. I would not be surprised if Emerson had the voters under his spell as well. Chance of winning: High
