Benjamin "Ben" Linus is a fictional character portrayed by Michael Emerson on the ABC television series Lost. Ben was the leader of a group of island natives called the Others and was initially known as Henry Gale to the survivors of Oceanic Flight 815. He began as the main antagonist during the first three seasons, but in subsequent seasons, becomes something of an uneasy ally to the protagonists; even so, however, throughout the series, he is persistently characterized by spontaneous coldblooded actions and the shroud of moral ambiguity. Other characters frequently describe him as loyal only to himself, though it is also often hinted that he may be driven by some higher purpose.

From the start of the plot, he organizes the capture of some of the survivors of 815, which crashes on the Island on September 22, 2004 as hostages so that he can convince Jack Shephard (Matthew Fox), a doctor from the plane crash, to operate on him. Later, he allows another survivor, John Locke (Terry O'Quinn), to join the Others and eventually replace him as leader when Ben is transported away from the island after an attempt to prevent it being discovered by his arch-enemy Charles Widmore (Alan Dale), but later returns to the island by plane with the help of Eloise Hawking (Fionnula Flanagan). As with most characters on Lost, Ben's history is revealed through flashbacks and episodes set in other time periods which are revealed slowly as the series progresses.

Originally cast for three guest appearances in the second season, Emerson's role was expanded to the leader of the Others and he became a regular cast member from the third season onward. Ben's perfected ability to lie and manipulate has led to speculation of his true motives. Emerson's portrayal of Ben has garnered many positive reviews and resulted in a nomination for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor - Drama Series in 2007, 2008 and 2009, winning in 2009.

  • This song is so amazing in that it completely reflects Ben. Mysterious and tense music during the first minute to show how at first he was a deceptive and devious character but then the soft gentle music to reflect how he transforms into a genuinely warm and good-hearted man by the end of the show. In my opinion, the best character created by the LOST producers!

  • This serie is so amazing, the theme songs always make me shiver

  • Even though Benjamin Linus wasn't a very good guy, he had his reasons. He's someone to admire though, he is everything a villain should be. Smart, witty, classy, and the master at manipulating.

  • @jerry5040 now that ^ i knew cuz i looked up the numbers

  • What really ruined 'LOST' was the writer's strike. The main writer(s) were canned or left the show and original storylines were cut...budgets for seasons 5 & 6 were considerably reduced. Too many characters were brought on and killed off after season 4, it would have made more sense to keep the original cast from the first 4 seasons until the end.

  • @EastPennDrumline The Hatch numbers 4,8,15,16,23,42 correspond to core values for use in the 'Valenzetti equation' a scientific calculation used to predict the end of humanity. This was an important part of the Dharma Initiative's work.

  • @jerry5040 thats awesome and also wierd at the same time to find out how Lost could have been different. sucks the site went down.

  • A rival researcher (Mittelwerk) was against the Dharma project, brought his own team of people, dressed in old clothes, to the island. They also brought a bacteria or virus that caused the women's birth problems.

  • Info postd online by a 'LOST' insider a few yrs ago, I bookmrkd the site...it was offline within 3 weeks. Also: plans to film Ben & Henry Gale having words, storyline of original island inhabitants arriving from the Mid East / Egypt, summoning 'Cerebrus' the smoke monster in the temple, more Dharma stations, Ben & Locke were half brothers (had the same mother Emily),

  • @jerry5040 thats quite interesting, how did u find that out?
