Sawyer the Vampire

[jaash]

Hi folks.....I'm pretty new here, so I haven't seen this mentioned before. My apologies if this is common knowledge that everyone (besides me before yesterday) already knew!

Anyway, I just started re-watching Season 1 of Angel, and I noticed that one of the vamps that gets dusted in the first few minutes of the pilot is none other than a younger, shorter-haired Josh Holloway....that's the actor that plays Sawyer on Lost. I had to do a double-take and rewind the scene to make sure, but yep...it was definitely him. I always think it's neat to see actors in bit parts like that before they made it big, so I thought I would pass that along in case there are other Lost fans on the forum who don't already know about it.

And speaking of the first couple of episodes of Angel, I enjoyed them more than I remember from my first viewing when they originally aired. I never missed an episode of Buffy or Firefly.....but I lost track of Angel after the second season due to a busy schedule and lots of travel for work. So I am looking forward to re-watching the few episodes that I have already seen, and getting to experience the rest of the show for the first time!

Makes me chuckle everytime I see Vampified Sawyer.lol.

A recent guest star I noticed that shocked me as Id never noticed before and someone mentioned it on the forum a few weeks/months ago is Amy Adams (Enchanted/Doubt/ Junebug).
She plays Taras cousin is 'Family'.

Yeah this was awesome - I noticed too!

I'm the same, one I see someone in a show I watch as a major/memorable role I start seeing them in everything I do! (For eg. I wouldn't have noticed/cared bout Amy Acker and Amber Benson being in supernatural eps. when I watched the dvds if I didn't already know them so well!)

Awesome. I have to re-watch.

There are probably a lot of famous actors who had small roles on Buffy & Angel.

Sticking with Lost cast members, Daniel Dae Kim appeared on Angel as evil Wolfram & Hart lawyer, Gavin Park.

Wentworth Miller of Prison Break fame got his first acing role as Gage in the Buffy Season 2 episode "Go Fish".

Amber Tamblyn from Joan of Arcadia appeared on BTVS in "All the Way" as Dawn's friend, Janice.

There's probably more, but you get the point.

I do love it in Lost when there's a scene involving Sawyer, Jin and Bernard (can't remember the actor's name, but he played Holland Manners). It's like an Angel reunion!
