On the one hand, I'm all for the actors getting whatever they can. I just don't see these two as the only "stars" on the show. This is such an ensemble show. *shrugs* I dunno.

I know in Hollywood (like all careers), mo' money means mo' status and therefore more casting appeal and more jobs. But they've only got two seasons left and $80,000 an episode is already obscene. LOST has already proven that no actor is "bullettproof".

Doesn't come across well, IMHO.

i don't know a lot of people...that turn in to "lost" to see them. if anything at all...i hear more...a love to hate these particular characters.

so i'm not totally sure where they're getting off thinkin' they are the glue that holds it all together.

I'm way more invested in other characters. But the LOST cast has always been very fluid, peeps come and go but the show holds together.

Must be nice.

The rest of the cast is also negotiating their contracts.
