The Practice - Bon Voyage Traitor

The ending scenes of Mr. Hinks Goes to Town (The Practice - Season 5 Episode 8), set to the music of Lost.

For all you Lost and Ben fans this (and the four after it) is a great episode to watch. Don't watch this video yet though as it contains SPOILERS. Go watch the episode then come back. It is great to see Ben up to his old tricks on another show:)

Music by Michael Giacchino

What's up with the music from LOST?

@mecagoenboba When I first saw this scene, and how Michael Emerson was channeling the spirit of Ben from LOST through his acting of William Hinks. All I could think of was "dammit, where is Michael Giacchino's score! It would fit perfectly here." So I searched for a piece of music that fit and "Bon Voyage Traitor", used during the season 2 finale, I thought fit the best.

Michael Emerson is adorable, even when he's  being creepy.

Michael Emerson is a brilliant actor. I love when actors can act with their eyes, without saying a word-- like Helen Mirren in "The Cook The Thief..." ('disliked that movie...loved her performance in it though).

I would love to have seen Michael Emerson in Oscar Wilde's play "The Importance of being Ernest" or any Shakespeare play (especially the lead in Hamlet).

Has anyone seen Emerson's stage work?

valkur8-- Thanks for posting this clip. :)

@valkur8... Ha! I was watching this clip--remembering that it was shot years before LOST...and around 2:28 I noticed the music and when I heard the trombone (?) slide down a minor third (or whatever interval makes that creepy sound), I said to myself "Oh my gosh--how prophetic! This sounds JUST like music from LOST!"

All the while I was thinking, "Wow--J.J. Abrams must have seen Emerson in this role and made note of the music to use in Lost." You overdubbed Lost music?

Well played!!! :)

@valkur8 this was done much longer than LOST..

[aysteria4ever]

I miss this series....

[MrExerionz]

lol..why LOST music???

[owensphil]

This isn´t the original music. Doesn´t fit. A little bit over the top

That's an example of how the right theme music in the background can really spice up the suspense and excitement in a particular scene.

He should play the Joker.

@valkur8 Wow, that's pretty creative. I thought it was random to give it a flavor of LOST since now everyone knows who Emerson is. But Giacchino's music is incredible. It just covers everything. What a beautiful mind. Makes me grateful that I can hear. BTW, Emerson creeped me out so much when he was in The Practice. If it weren't for LOST and all the interviews, I would still get creeped out by him. He was also in an episode of Law and Order SVU, playing the bad guy, again.Thanks 4 the response!
