Emerson says they both want something more lighthearted than "Lost." He hopes the show can acknowledge their "age and frailty." Emerson says he envisions a show where, if their characters get hit in the face, they "don't get up for a month."
The 55-year-old Emerson and 58-year-old O'Quinn are both up for best supporting actor Emmy Awards.
Emerson says he is aware a segment from the "Lost" final season DVD was leaked recently. Even though he stars in it, however, Emerson says he still hasn't seen it.
The actor, who played Ben Linus in the ABC show that ended in May, says he does not really get the "whole I-have-to-see-it-before-the-rest-of-the-world mania."
