"But Holloway also probably won't rush to tell you about some of his roles before Lost made him a star -- like the Old Navy commercial in which he shared face time with Fran Drescher and a chimp."
How can you tell which is which?

Jin was in the (short-lived) Babylon 5 spinoff "Crusade"
Jack was in the (short-lived) "Haunted"
Eko and Michael were both inmates on "Oz"
Locke was a CIA director on "Alias"
Claire was the evil alien on "Roswell"
Charlie was obviously one of the hobbits in the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

I haven't read the link so this could be a smeek but Locke was an admiral on Star Trek:TNG. He was the commander of the ship Riker was on before the Enterprise that they had to go recover.

And Jin was also a recurring character on Enterprise (one of the army guys towards the end).
I wonder if he holds the record for most recurring roles on sci-fi TV shows?

Claire was Tess on "Roswell" - I forgot if she was ever made a regular cast member, but she was on a lot of episodes. Tess also went through a pregnancy.
Maggie Grace(Shannon - yeah, I know...) appeared on a "Law&Order: SVU" - character was a teen actress - only 1 episode.

Locke was also a General on The West Wing (I believe he replaced John Amos). He was also in Old School.
Michael was also in The last two Matrix movies (you know, the ones that sucked).
Michelle Rodriguez was in The Fast and the Furious.

Libby was the hot girlfriend on Titus.
...and maybe better known as Christa Miller's replacement on The Drew Carey Show. Her character ended up marrying Drew in the series finale.

Terry O'Quinn was in so much stuff before Lost that I can hardly believe it. There for a while, he constantly in at least one show I was recording. I specifically remember him from Millennium, Harsh Realm, Earth II, Roswell, Jag, Alias, and now Lost. He was on the X-Files at least once or twice, and I think I remember him in an episode of NCIS. Then there are the films. I think the IMDB has almost one hundred items listed for him. Tom Cruise has less than forty.
