    This large and ominous fellow is a very talented actor who amazed us all as the creepy yet kindly Tom (Mr. Friendly). hide show

    Standing at over 6 foot with an impressive build and sullen face, this man is tailor made to play either cops or bad guys and he's had the honour of doing both. The latter in the hit series Lost where he plays Tom, better known as Mr. Friendly who is one of "the Others". While he plays a villain in Lost who caged, beat and kidnapped the survivor's, you could sense a likeability about him which made him a difficult person to hate. Gainey's character was shot dead by Sawyer in the final episode of Season 3 which sent out mixed emotions as the Other's had intended on killing the survivors anyway but it'll be sad not to see him in mainstream roles at least not at the moment. M.C Gainey is a wonderful actor and it'll be great to see him reappear on TV and movies.

    Any actor on LOST is a good one! hide show

    M. C. Gainey (Michael Christopher Gainey) is a great actor on does a great job on LOST as one of the mysterious others.
    He was the first other to appear on the show (except for ethan) and for a long time people thought he was thier leader. M.C has also been in many other televison shows/films and ussually potrays the bad guy (criminals, hillibillies, other) he has also played a cop a few times too. Personally i didn't know the name of m.c before lost but i did recoignise him from somewhere, But now that he does paly on lost i considor him as one of the best actors out there.
