đšEarly to RISA đ§Anon watches Lost
Nurse_RobotBut it clearly worked out for him, I mean we see him on new media all the time! What, you canât think of anything? Just Google his name!
I mean he was part of the main cast on Hawai Five-0 for like 6 seasons too. Credited with 130 episodes on IMDb. Dudeâs probably loaded and only takes occasional roles for fun nowadays.
mercIf he was smart about investing it, he probably earned enough to retire and live at a middle-class level for the rest of his life. But, heâs probably not loaded. He wasnât ever one of the main stars of a show, he was always a side character. Plus, lifestyle inflation is a big problem for actors. Say he was making $400k per year on Hawaii Five-O, he probably wasnât living a modest $80k/year lifestyle and putting away 80% of his earnings.
I would bet heâs still out looking for work so he can live in a house in LA with a pool up in the hills, not in a 1 bedroom apartment in the city.
He started off at 20-40k per episode and was doing 80k per episode in season 3 of Lost, possibly more in the later seasons. More than a million a year easily. He was pretty important for a supporting cast member and they all made decent money.
Supposedly he also doesnât like living a flashy life with fancy stuff, his treat to himself for landing the Hawaii Five-0 gig was a custom jumpsuit, not a car or watch or house.
So that got me curious and I went and checked his insta. Not a single instance of him flexing wealth or trying to be an influencer or whatever. Seems like he wanted to be the opposite of Hurley with his money
I actually really like Bookie.
He is the only thing I remember about that show. Then again, I have never really watched it
Kilgore TroutHereâs a graphical summary for you:
Spoiler
Maybe not the first season or two. But he was a series regular for six seasons for what at the time was one of the most popular television shows, ever. His character had unique staying power in that show.
rockerfaceđşđŚYou could say he lends that weight to the role
as someone who canât be bothered to watch Lost, what are some of the reasons given for him remaining fat?
Asking Lost to give you answers is the reason none of us talk about Lost.
He keeps finding food stashes. Finds a food pantry in a bunker (start of season 2). Then a pallet of food dropped by helicopter (mid or late season 2). Then they made it a reoccurring drop delivery even though there hadnât been reoccurring food drops the whole first season. No one found any of the drops nor saw a helicopter even though it was right by the camp/hatch. But it was apparently happening the whole time.
It still was never clear who was having the food drops made but maybe dharma initiative. Since they knew Desmond was living in the bunker and the food was supposedly for him.
Also itâs a pretty good show. The last season was confusing and misunderstood.
But the rest is solid. Good acting. Interesting characters. Honestly worth watching.
Hurley was only on the island for 108 days before being rescued. As he said on the show âIâm a big guy, itâs gonna be a while before I lose a few notchesâ. 108 days isnât a massive amount of time.
In season two he did hoard some food for himself, but then when the 2nd food drop came he ultimately gave it all away.
This is just a silly meme itâs best not to judge the show from it. They donât âkeep making up excusesâ.
Is this implying that everyone on those stranded-on-a-desert-island shows are just actors and they stay in hotels and live comfortably when the camera isnât on them?
The Skipper was 60âs fat, Hurley is 21st century fat.
The difference is about one entire person.
RamenJunkieThere were actually ten people on the Minnow but The Skipper is also a cannibal.
The guy who played Sam in game of thrones said he would ask people, who pointed out tye similar plot hole with his character, something along the lines of âyou know I donât actually live on the wall right?â I donât want to search for the clip to find the exact quote so sorry if thatâs too far off.
JohnEdwaAlso something along âtheres living dead, giants, dragons, magic, and the only thing you find unrealistic is someone not losing weight?â
Becauae there is no in-fiction reason why that would be the case. Dragons arenât realistic, but not losing weight is internally inconsistent with the rules of the world as presented to us.
John Snow regularly gices his best buddy his extra rolls because he has a gluten allergy.
Boom, explained.
I donât have any context to know if that works here or not, but either way relying on headcanon to explain the primary text is a hallmark of sloppy writing.
samus12345He was fat in the original books.
yeah ârefuses to lose weightâ, because they didnât know he was fat when they cast him.
and no, the show doesnât even try to come up with an explanation. why would it. heâs fat, we know why people may be fat. like what the fuck was this idiot smoking when he watched the show that he thinks Hurleyâs weight is the main focus?
