Ken Leung to Guest on Current TV's "Bar Karma"

Thanks to Cynthia for the heads up.

From a time-traveling island to a time-traveling bar, actor Ken Leung, best known for his role as “Miles” on the hit series “Lost,” guest-stars on episode 7 of Current TV’s “Bar Karma,” the world’s first community-developed television series which will air on Friday, March 25 at 10pm ET/9 Central. In this episode, “The Arrival,” a disoriented robber (Leung) finds himself in Bar Karma. And while most of the universe is dreaming, the jukebox mysteriously allows another unwelcome stranger (Tom Noonan) into the bar, forcing resident bartender James (William Sanderson) to face his deepest fears.

“Bar Karma,” the first series to give viewers control of the show content before it hits air, was created by game creator Will Wright (The Sims/Sim City) and Worldwide Biggies CEO Albie Hecht. Set at a mystical watering hole at the edge of the universe, “Bar Karma” stars William Sanderson (“True Blood,” “Lost,” "Deadwood") as James, the 20,000 year-old bartender, Matthew Humphreys (“Obsessed,” “Big Love,” “The Forgotten”) as bar owner Doug Jones, and Cassie Howarth (“Deranged High,” “Deathclock”) as the lone waitress, Dayna. The series answers the age-old question: “What would happen if you could change your fate?” Set in a time traveling bar owned and operated by members of the mysterious organization Karma, Inc., each weekly episode follows a new bar patron as they enter at happy hour and must make a life-changing…and possibly world-saving …decision.

Ken Leung Joins Cast of "Big Mike"

Ken Leung ("Lost") has joined the cast of the Greg Grunberg-led drama pilot, about "a plus-sized detective in a world where plus-sized is a minus." He'll play Bernie Li, an old-neighborhood friend of Mike O'Bannon (Grunberg) and his partner Armando Romero (yet to be cast) who became the San Diego Police Department's doctor so he could keep a watchful eye on his best friends. Ed Decter and John Strauss are behind the project, which comes from the Sony Pictures Television-based Happy Madison Productions.

LOST Actors donated artwork

Thanks to Sharon for the heads up.

A gallery of donated artwork by "Lost" actors, representing their time here over six seasons filming the hit ABC series, will be exhibited for the first time at a Honolulu Theatre for Youth fundraising kickoff party from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Thursday at Tenney Theatre.

The works, commissioned by HTY trustee Annie Cusick Wood (spouse of "Lost" actor Ian Cusick, who played Desmond), eventually will be auctioned but will highlight the HTY's Actors & Artists Fund-Launching event.

The actors/artists include Terry O'Quinn (John Locke), who fashioned a bracelet from shells he collected on the North Shore; Ken Leung (Miles), who did a sketch of actress Evangeline Lilly (Kate); Jorge Garcia (Hurley), who rendered a painting of himself dive-bombing into the water (with butt crack showing!); and Josh Holloway (Sawyer), who did a watercolor painting of himself fishing on a boat.

Additionally, Michael Emerson (Ben), a former graphic artist, donated a work he did a while back. ...

Community notables, such as Daniel Dae Kim, who played Jin on "Lost" and stars as Chin Ho Kelly on CBS's "Hawaii Five-0", Kirk Matthews and Trini Kaopuiki of KHON2 and ex-anchor Linda Coble (aka Mrs. Matthews) will read snippets from three future HTY shows ("Lion Dancer," "Tasi's Gift" and "Poetry Fever")
