Lost Stars Unhappy With Network Treatment  10/5/05

TV hunk Matthew Fox is reassuring his Lost castmates they will soon see financial rewards from starring in the hit show, after a handful of the actors complained they do not receive enough recognition.

Some unnamed castmembers of the desert island drama are unhappy to hear about the bonuses and gifts lavished on the stars of Desperate Housewives, which is broadcast on the same US TV network, ABC.

However, Fox is sure the Lost actors will soon be championed at the same level as Teri Hatcher, Marcia Cross and their fellow Housewives, especially after Lost was named Outstanding Drama Series at last month's (SEP05) Emmys.

He says, "The difference between how ABC has treated has treated Lost and Desperate Housewives has been night and day.

"There's a perception among the guys that we are busting out a*ses on the island and we weren't getting a lot of recognition for that.

"I've just told the cast to keep their heads down, stay positive and it will all work out in the end."
