Oooooooooh! He was the STALKER from The Practice. I knew I’d seen Henry Gale before. Wow, he does creepy very well.


Can you say, “Rewrite”? I knew you could. Because this scene:

[SAWYER, TRYING TO OPEN A DHARMA-OREO COOKIE, BREAKS IT]
HURLEY: Dude, you have to twist it off.
AUDIENCE: WTF? Are you trying to tell us Sawyer is too stupid to know how to eat an Oreo cookie? Did someone screw up this scene by writing “SAWYER” instead of “JIN”? WTF?

totally needed a rewrite. Shoulda been this:

[JIN, TRYING TO OPEN A DHARMA-OREO COOKIE, BREAKS IT]
HURLEY: Dude, you have to unscrew it.
JIN: Eh?
HURLEY [Takes cookie, shows Jin]
JIN: Ooooooooh. Tank. U.
SAWYER: Yeah, it takes an expert to know how to eat one of these
AUDIENCE: No, just someone who’s ever eaten one, schmuck. Duh.
HURLEY: RAAARGH! HURLEY SMASH! HURLEY SMASH ANNOYING LITTLE MAN!
JIN: Hahahahaha, nasty man finally gets the crap kicked out of him, I think I’ll just stand here and laugh
SUN: Jin, Sawyer’s getting hurt! Go help!
JIN: Are you NUTS? Look how big Hurley is!
SUN: Hello, you’re Korean, you have magic powers, remember? You can make me pregnant even though you couldn’t until we got on the island
AUDIENCE: Yeah, right, like he’s really the father!
JIN: Did you just hear a bunch of people shouting?
SUN: Look! Hurley’s squashing Sawyer, please stop, the women of America are counting on you!
MERYL: No, take off your shirt first so it doesn’t get ripped!

Who was that guy who played Dave? I’ve seen him before, but ever since he’s shaved his head, I can’t remember where I saw him when he had hair. He drives me nuts, but damn, I want to know where I saw him before he shaved his head.

  1. Jeff says:

    As my wife screamed. Dave is Charlotte’s husband from Sex in the City. The one for whom she converted to Judaism.

  2. Nope, never watched Sex and the City.

    Man, I’d never convert to or from anything for that guy. Something about him just totally annoys me.

  3. Sue says:

    Your rewrite is hilarious, and really does make more sense!

  4. The Doctor says:

    Dave is Evan Handler who was in a sitcom or two as well as Sex in the City.

    I sure didn’t see the last scene coming…

  5. Mario says:

    Did you notice that he was also in a short film called “The Lost Season” playing a character named “Henery Gale?”

  6. Mario: No, but that doesn’t surprise me. The Lost writers really like to mess with people’s heads.

    I think I may keep on posting snippets of scenes this way. It’s easier and less time-consuming than doing a whole episode recap, and it also gives me an outlet for when I see REALLY STUPID SCENES like Sawyer being unable to open an Oreo cookie. I mean, come ON. Is he not an American?

    Puh-leeze.
