So Michael "Benjamin Linus" Emerson was on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon the other day, and he was completely awesome.
Crazy, huh? What else would you want to see him read? Also, is Jimmy Fallon the world’s most excited human? I find his enthusiasm charming.

that wasnt creepy. michael emerson isnt creepy. i want to hug him. he’s awesome in this secretive way that people dont realize. he’s too much ben linus and william hinks for some.
Emerson is great. I hope, he will finally get his Emmy later that year.
I would have to think his role in Saw got him his role on Lost.

there is a hint of zep in ben linus, and that is also the role in which i discovered the great michael emerson.
I loved this clip – but hated that fallon acted like he’s this huge Lost fan and called Sun, SOON during the interview.
Luckily he busted out those drawings and little boy blue. that saved him.
Personally, I found it more hillarious than creepy because he made it over-the-top. It’s still a great clip.
Give this man an Emmy people!!! He is such a riveting actor, I remember when he first creeped me out on The Practice! He deserves more roles on tv and film to showcase I am sure his range of acting talent! And he seems like such a nice guy too! I cracked up hearing him read that rhyme!
Haha, Michael Emerson is awesome. He read that so perfectly, and yet was rather adorable doing so. Especially when he laughed at the lighting
When is this man going to get his EMMY????
I loved this! He is such a good actor and Jimmy is great too.
He is so fantastic! When is he finally going to win an EMMY for Lost??
This is really funny. Michael Emerson is so great. I totally love him. This reading of “Little Boy Blue” was so freaking funny. This was actually a really good idea of Fallon’s, if it was his idea. Emerson is a great interview subject. He goofs around with funny interviewers and talks serious, in depth LOST to serious, in depth interviewers. I hope his character doesn’t die this year. I really want to see him around for a while in Season 6.
Michael Emerson already has an Emmy for his work on The Practice, but I would love to see him recognized for his work on Lost as well. He does such an amazing job as Ben Linus.
