It's So Strange To Me That Naveen Andrews Was Completely Absent From That Variety Article On Lost's Racism

it's so strange to me that naveen andrews was completely absent from that variety article on Lost's racism in 2023. not a single mention of him or sayid whatsoever (except for an odd comment from harold) especially considering he did come out and express his "general dislike" of the show.... especially considering sayid is subjected to some of the most obvious racism from the show over the course of it's run.... he was completely absent from the getting lost documentary.... he gets a pretty rough treatment from the "fans" who seem to consider him a bad actor because he drops his accent on occasion.... even though he was the only non-white supporting Lost actor to be nominated for an emmy and golden globe..... and they blame and talk shit about him because he proposed the romance between shannon and sayid (and we all know how the average misogynist Lost fan feels about shannon)..... and he wasn't happy when maggie grace was written out of the show.... the decision kind of fucked over sayid's entire arc....... his role and screen time was heavily reduced after it..... and sayid's six season presence in the show was reduced to fans complaining that sayid should have been with nadia in the finale – not shannon..... when that doesn't make any sense for the thematic premise of the show... and naveen is a hardcore #shayid fan – obviously.... idk but I feel like there's a lot more to come out about what went on behind the scenes, with both the non-white and female cast and crew..... it's interesting that Lost has had such a massive comeback as soon as that variety article came out. very interesting.
