*raises hand* I've only seen a bit of LOST, and Sayid (and Jin) are the characters I find most appealing/attractive. From the first, I thought, "the guy who plays Sayid is gorgeous". Then I found out more about the actor, and I... not to say *headdesked*, but I *BLINKED* really hard. And sighed a bit. Though I don't blame the actor at all, because hey, a job!
Prior to this I had most often run across this phenomenon [a] in relation to practically any Native American actor in practically anything, and more specifically [b] Oded Fehr, whom I adore, but OMG the casting. Casting him as the IRISH COP has to take the cake. It's somewhat sad to think that overall, I think "The Mummy" might have come closest to casting him appropriately...
(Sorry, oyceter, this is completely off topic of everything else in this post or comments, and I'm rushing and haven't time, but this caught my eye and I wanted to respond with a specific little "word" to this.)
