Actors/Actresses who were one-hit wonders

Well, she did have her part in The Sally Field Programme and also got elderly stoner hunk Harrison Ford. So that's at least three hits, I guess. Even if she is in a supporting role in the latter two.

Imagine what she could have accomplished if she'd actually eaten some food.

End of thread.

Calista got ‘the’ guy...so who cares about her shitty career.

Jaye Davidson

Henry Wrinkler (acting wise, until his supportive NY role last year as a sleazy lawyer in some show I forgot)

... and of course, DL fave Brendad Ickson

Alicia Silverstone - Clueless

Tatum O'Neal - Paper Moon

[quote]Joan Collins

Well, she's best-known for Dynasty, true.

But she has had a long career where she's done other things.

Plus, she's a Dame.

Thread closed.

[quote]Tatum O'Neal - Paper Moon

Bad News Bears and Little Darlings were hot movies as well. She was above title top billing in both.

[quote]But she has had a long career where she's done other things.

True. But all were B-movies with no recognition and in which she remained an unknown name. So, even though they made profits, they were hardly hits. Just business as usual.

Jimmy Walker

Jenna Elfman.

Downhill from Dharma... and they are STILL trying to shove her down our throats.

Barbara Eden

Milizia Korjus, Oscar nominated for her only Hollywood film, "The Great Waltz", though she did have her opera and concert career. But still, she's great in that film!

Mira Sorvino

Surely, you couldn't possibly mean me!

Who?

Peter Ostrum, who played Charlie in "Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory."

Rue Mclanahan was on two hit series.

R29 how dare you besmirch the star of Troop Beverly Hills!!

Yeah, that's my job!

[quote]Rue Mclanahan was on two hit series.

And so was Donna Pescow. Three, if you include "Even Stevens."

How about us NO-hit wonders?

Shelley Hack.

Karen Cellini - quite literally, I think "Dynasty" was her only credit.

[quote]Rue Mclanahan was on two hit series.

But I was the STAR!

Chris Burke

Jennifer Beals

[quote]Rue Mc Clanahan was on two hit series.

Three, if you count "Mama's Family."

Don't. You. Dare!

Uma Thurman

Marina De Tavira

E.T.'s Henry Thomas

Margaret Hamilton

A lot of you need to learn what a one hot wonder is.....it is someone who starred in a movie , or a tv show to acclaim, and was never heard from again.

Think Nikki Blonsky.

Now I'm just a whore, darlin'

I did R48!!

David Chokachee

Good one, R37. It’s a shame she didn’t fit in, I loved her classic Grace Kelly/Northeast look- but it didn’t make sense in California.

That mannish actress with the bad perm who starred in that 80s thriller about the desperate whore. Fatal Instinct, was it? It was so long ago, I can’t remember.

Corky/Corin Nemec

David Cassidy

Eva Gabor

Robert Hays and Julie Hagerty

Topol

Soleil Moon Frye

Paul Hogan

r37....she was a successful model and was closely associated with the Charlie perfume marketing campaign. She never really intended to go into acting, did she ?

Margauxl Hemingway

Katina Paxinou

Brandon Cruz

Jerry Mathers

Margaux

R57 ooh I forgot all about those jazzy, classy Charlie! commercials. She was so cute in those.

Feast your eyes, bitches. Nikki Blonsky really does own this thread.

Valentines Day Cameos are in full effect of here in #Blonskyland so keep them coming so we can all tell your family together how much you love them! @BookCameo

I believe thats the reason she was hired for Charlies Angels....she was very popular at the time, so producers thought that would translate....it didnt.

The little black girl who was nominated for an Oscar several years ago. Can't remember her name.

Quvenzhané Wallis.....the Annie remake killed whatever chance she had at a career.

R4 Linda Evans was a star on two hit tv shows, The Big Valley and Dynasty

Jennifer Grey

Merrie Spaeth and Tippy Walker ("The World of Henry Orient")

Emily Deschanel.

R9 I wouldn't say that, her exploration films of the 1970s, especially the ones based on her sister's books, brought her some name-recognition.

90210

Sally Struthers

Dan Quayle

Jeremy Licht

The Cosby kids

Topo Gigio

Jussie Smollett

I always wanted Jeremy to Licht me

Elijah Kelley

William Shatner

Mark Hamill

Vivien Leigh

Two hit wonders . Gone with the Wind & A Streetcar Named Desire

Vivian Vance ; 0

Hamill's been doing voice over work for over 25 years

Steve Sandvoss (“Latter Days”)

R82, I think what R79 is saying is that Mark Hamill is only famous for Star Wars.

He may have found other employment, but SW was his only hit.

Jim Nabors

Frank Sutton

Polly Holliday

Phillip McKeon

The Facts of Life Bitches

Shelly Long

Lucie Armaz and her brother Desi

Lupita

Lisa Welchel!

R83 - That's a perfect example.

So is Jaye Davison (Crying Game), as someone mentioned early in the thread.

Berenice Bejo

Audry Tauto

Diana Canova

Karen valentine

Julia Duffy (and don't say "Designing Women" because she almost single handedly killed it).

Sharon Stone.

R92, well, Sharon Stone is most famous for "Basic Instinct", but she did get an Oscar nomination for "Casino".

Lauren Tewes.

Jill Whelan.

Millie Perkins, THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK. She was so awful in it, she had two film roles of note after that and pretty much sank like a stone career wise.

Cherie Currie "Foxes" with Jodie Foster. Could have led to other things but she got heavily into drugs and that was it.

What about Kim Basinger? She's a talented actress but has awful filmography.

Vivien Leigh? This thread was killed by idiots.

William Shatner is hardly a one hit wonder.....yes, he is primarily known for Star Trek, but he didnt receive acclaim until later in life....in fact he won several Emmy's.

Lee Radziwill in "Laura"

Oh, wait the thread is about one HIT wonders. And actors. Please pardon me and carry on.

Brian Dunkleman.

Mindy Cohn

Victoria Principal

Roseanne Barr

Lena Dunham

Jackee Harry

Mo'Nique

Ann Magnuson. Elvira. Cyndi Lauper ("Vibes"). Madonna ("Desperately Seeking Susan"). Julie Brown ("Medusa: Dare To Be Truthful").

Vivien Leigh , Oscars for 2 of the most Iconic movies of all time.

Elvira r103, really?

Cassandra Peterson has made more than a decent living for at least 3 decades off that "one hit". Making a long term career out of one character does not fit the definition of a one hit wonder. Just ask Paul Reubens (until various scandals got in the way) or Stephanie Courtney, who's been pulling in a 7 figure income for more than a decade as Flo from Progressive. Interestingly all three got their start in the LA improv troupe The Groundlings.

[quote]Jackee Harry

Two hit series aren't enough for you?

And what were we, chopped liver?

Vivien Leigh? Gone With the Wind, A Streetcar Named Desire, Anna Karenina, That Hamilton Woman, Ship of Fools, The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone, Antony and Cleopatra, a LIFETIME of acclaimed Shakespearean stagework, married to Lawrence Olivier. She had a tragic life but she was and remains a bona fide star. One hit wonder? Jesus H. Christ, she is the antithesis of one.

William Shatner???

Leighton Meester.

It's sad that her post-GG career was nothing like Blake Lively's

Mischa Barton

Madolyn Smith, the Other Woman from Urban Cowboy.

Michelle Johnson, from Blame it On Rio.

Carina Lombard from The Wide Sargasso Sea--not a huge hit but it got her a lot of notice that went nowhere.

Beatrice Dalle, Betty Blue.

Anne Parriauld, La Femme Nikita.

Leelee Sobieski, A Soldier's Daughter Never Cries.

I'm sure a few of these were #MeToo stories. Maybe most of them.

Brandon Routh

Trump wingnut Victoria Jackson. Her dizzy act got old REAL quick. And she’s just truly stupid.

Susan Lucci

Paris Hilton

Christopher Lambert

rupert grint

Roberto Benigni

R115 She did have Devious Maids after AMC.

Is r78 crazy?

SUSAN FUCKING RICHARDSON.

Lea Michelle.

Chris Colfer.

Eva Longoria

Ian Ziering

Charlene Tilton

Wow, someone else remembered Corky Pigeon!

Joanne Worley

[quote]William Shatner is hardly a one hit wonder.....yes, he is primarily known for Star Trek, but he didnt receive acclaim until later in life....in fact he won several Emmy's.

Yes, although Shatner is mainly known for Star Trek, he got more than one lease on life.

After the TV show was cancelled, there were all the ST movies from the late 70's to the early 90's which brought him a new audience.

And then he found success with "The Practice" and "Boston Legal" late in his career.

Delta Burke

Daisy Ridley

I remember Corley Pigeon...I met him a few times in the punk scene...so many on here seriously don’t get “one hit wonder”.

Uma Thurman? Come on...

Lupita has an Oscar and two hits, no? Plus like 4 movies coming up with good prospects..

Joe Piscopo

Joseph Fiennes

Kim McGuire. (R.I.P.)

David Caruso owns this thread.

[quote]Barbara Eden

Are you joking? “Harper Valley PTA” waa the runaway hit of NBC’s winter 1981 lineup!

R122, Susan Richardson had not only Eight is Enough, but also A Star is Born, that's two hits!

Ruth Buzzi

Dana Plato

Gary Coleman

Todd Bridges

For Shatner, don’t forget TJ Hooker. It was pretty popular — he was basically a Kmart Dirty Harry (Hooker’s a good cop!). And Heather Locklear running around in a beat cop’s uniform with that enormous helmet of hair!

Shatner was prolific if nothing else. He had Tekwar for instance. He had done sci fi and cop shows and, as a smart and creative guy, was always thinking of new story ideas — and tekwar fused the two genres. He had lots of notes for a sci fi cop story and later hired a writer to ghostwrite the novels which did pretty well, and spawned games and tv shows.

The Wachowski Brothers (or whatever the hell they are now) ripped off Tekwar’s idea of a Matrix that simulates reality — in fact Tekwar even uses that same word.

Chrissy Metz

When I saw the title thread I immediately thought Evangeline Lilly from Lost but everyone from Lost, right?

"David Caruso owns this thread."

No, he had two big shows

Technically R118, Grint is an eight hit wonder - and has more than enough money from the Potter series to sit on is ass for eternity. Most estimates are that he made about $50 million over 10 years - or about half of what Radcliffe made.

Gabrielle Carteris

Lilly is The Wasp is on og the Avengers and was the sole female in the Hobbit trilogy.

Would some of you please take a peek at IMDB beforehand?

Linda Fiorentino: A revelation in The Last Seduction, but apparently she was such a nightmare to work with, she killed her career stone-dead.

Nicholas Brendon from Buffy: He could have taken things further but he's a degenerate alcoholic.

Henry Thomas: I don't know why he didn't make more of his career after ET.

Hugh Dancy in Hannibal

Erik Estrada (CHiPs)

Haley Joel Osment (The Sixth Sense)

The not-Keanu one in the Bill & Ted movies

The old bag in the Andy Griffith Show.

the guy who did sound effects verbally in the Police Academy movies

Ted Bessell from That Girl had a successful directing career in television - sitcoms and I think the Tracey Takes On show with Tracey Ullman.

The lead nerd in the Revenge of the Nerds movies

I can't believe Rue Mclanahan is listed as a one hit wonder here.

Besides her hit TV shows, she had a distinguished career in movies.

Who can forget her as Poochie, the Girl Out In The Shack?

Does it count if you needed home video to go into the black?

Lauren Tewes

Rebecca Schaeffer

Get Smart

R161, it's amazing to think that Barbara Feldon is turning 86 in a few weeks.

One Hit Wonders Barbara Eden and Barbara Feldon teamed up for this delightful Movie of the Week in 1975.

Allyce Beasley, Miss Dipesto from “Moonlighting.”

And that got a second season unlike our would-be comeback vehicle [italic]The Brady Brides[/italic]. I guess a world that was ready for [italic]Hill Street Blues, St. Elsewhere[/italic], and Nell Carter and Ricky Schroder as sitcom stars wasn’t ready for two Sherwood Schwartz shows at once.

Robert Pattinson

Murray got the Love Boat; grin and bear it

Phyllis is replacing Mrs. Garrett;

Rhoda is Jason Bateman’s Mom,

But Mary bounced from bomb to bomb!

Mary had DVD and MTM and Ordinary People and more besides. She’s the definition of the wrong answer to this thread.

R167, good one!

Boo Boo Kitty.

R177: But every TV show she did after 1977 flopped and flopped hard.

yet she went on to win several Emmy awards for her dramatic acting as well as an Oscar nomination. A television legend is hardly a one hit wonder....btw, are you forgetting the Dick Van Dyke show ?

David Schwimmer

Yeppp

[quote]are you forgetting the Dick Van Dyke show ?

You mean our only hit?

In a just world David Schwimmer would be a no-hit wonder.

R184 He's not that bad

Jennifer Lawrence

She was only good in Winter's Bone.

That may have been her best performance, R18, but I wouldn't really call an Oscar winner and current A-list movie star a one-hit wonder.

Whoops. R186.

r183....you are obviously clueless....both had LONG careers before DVD....Rose Marie was a child star...Baby Rose Marie....and Amsterdam was around almost as long. Remember, television hadnt been around that long when DVD aired.

Jennifer Lawrence isn't a one hit wonder, some people are just naming stars they don't like

"Freaks" 1932.

With one or two exceptions, most of the sideshow freaks' sole claim to fame was their role in this movie.

Well other than Winter's Bone she'e been awful in everything she's nominated at Oscar.

R185: yes he is. He’s worse: he’s ugly, wooden and unfunny. And a friend of Bryan Singer.

R193 And a friend of Bryan Singer.'

for real?

Taran Noah Smith.

Yes, R194. Two words: Apt Pupil.

Bob Saget should have joined him in no-hit wonderland.

Tiffany Hadish

R196 I've seen that film I thought he was good in that one.

What do you mean by friend of Bryan Singer? Do you mean he's friend with singer or suggesting him is a pedo like singer?

Matt LeBlanc

Brie Larson

Matt LeBlanc had two solid hit shows

David Schwimmer was in Wonder Years before Friends

And, really? Mary Tyler Moore? Jennifer Lawrence? And people have the gall to answer back with retorts like “well she was only good in one of those 7 hits” or “we’ll she had bomb after bomb after she had 7 hits.”

You knuckleheads need to look up the definition of the SELF EXPLANATORY phrase “one-hit wonder.”

Posting the picture of Susan Richardson is not gonna make it any funnier the third time around!

Jessica Lange -- FRANCES then nothing

OK, r206 is clearly a spoof. I’ll bite.

Katharine Hepburn. All crap after Morning Glory.

Betty Davis. Nothing but garbage after JEZEBEL

Not a spoof. But I haven't read the thread. I was referring to how she was being hyped as a genuine challenge to Streep as 'Greatest Actress of Her Generation' but failed to follow it up with any truly indelible film or performance after that.

And it that regard, no, I don't think she can actually be compared to Davis or Hepburn.

Schwimmer sucked in Apt Pupil which had no shortage of good performances.

And as for that criminally shitty sitcom of his, performing a sexually charged rap for an infant is child abuse. The show treats it as a joke. Yes, I believe he has enabled pedos even if he isn’t one himself.

R208 = Joan Crawford, star of [Italic]Berserk [/Italic] and [Italic]Trog [/Italic].

Matt LeBlanc sucks. He can’t act and he’s a moron. He’s everything wrong with Tony fucking Danza only worse.

Nobody on that fucking [italic]F(r)iends[/italic] has any talent and they all slept their way to where they got when they all deserve the career oblivion usually reserved for the likes of Tina Yothers and Danny Ponce.

Courtney Cox is a lousy actress and a shitty dancer. Carlton Banks improved on that clumsy white girl 100%.

Wasn’t Soleil Moon Frye on [italic]Sabrina the Teenage Witch[/italic] during the college years?

Tina Yothers

Justine Bateman

What about me?

What about Ted McGinley? He was only in Happy Days, Love Boat, Dynasty, Married With Children and Hope and Faith. I hated all of them. His movies too.

Frankie Muniz

The majority of actors and actresses who have ever been part of a series or in a successful film. Very few are heard from again.

Muniz is a good one

I’m glad a lot of people find the opportunity to stray enough in this thread to simply vent about shitty actors or actors they dislike. But that’s not the question, is it?

Linda Lavin

Bonnie Franklin

[quote]Schwimmer sucked in Apt Pupil which had no shortage of good performances.

Well, it was a pretty small role that didn't give him much material to work with -- I think he was only in 2 or 3 scenes.

It was basically a 2 character piece -- between Ian McKellen and Brad Renfro. And credit to Renfro, whatever his problems with drugs, he did have acting ability and managed to hold his own with McKellen, which most teenage boys wouldn't be able to do.

[quote]Well, it was a pretty small role that didn't give him much material to work with -- I think he was only in 2 or 3 scenes.

And they were the worst scenes in the film that didn't result in a lawsuit or criminal investigation.

Corbin Bernsen.

Joel Higgins had no success in TV other than [italic]Silver Spoons[/italic] despite a pretty respectable stage career. His three other TV shows ran a year or less each.

Karen Lynn Gorney

Matthew Perry

Sharon Stone

Sharon Stone was good in Casino and Broken Flowers.

She was good in them, but they weren't hits

A one hit wonder is someone who has a hit THEN FADES INTO OBLIVION. Sharon Stone hardly fits the bill.

Don't bother, R242. The stupid is too strong in this thread.

David Soul

R243, the stupid one is you, fanboy

[quote] David Soul

actually a one hit wonder on 2 fronts

tv and music

R245 is the idiot who repeats posts AND posts people who had more than one hit.

R247, Sharon didn't have more than one hit

Try again, fangurl

R242 is correct.

The Walton kids except Richard Thomas

Sharon Stone was also hilarious in "Irreconcilable Differences", especially in an segment where she played Scarlett O'Hara belle. Unfortunately, when I saw it in Queens, NY, she raised her arm showing an unshaven armpit, and the audience loudly groaned, "Ewwww".

Claire Forlani. She starred opposite Brad Pitt in Meet Joe Black. Never heard from her again.

Claire Forlani certainly never became a big name, R252.

She popped up from time to time (eg. as Ryan Phillippe's wife in Anti-Trust), and she played the mother of Jamie Campbell-Bower in "Camelot".

Hey...Claire Forlani does those Dewars Scoth Whiskey commercials....shes a stah.

^^^scotch^^^

Julia Ormond - well, she was on "Mad Men".

...and Witches of East End

Adam Rich

Candace Cameron Bure

R223, you are CRAZY.

Bonnie Franklin is known for a lot more than Applause; ditto Linda Lavin for Broadway Bound. Hell, Lavin wasn’t even nominated for It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane... and “You’ve Got Possibilities” is probably what she’s best known for.

Jodie Sweetin

To be fair some of these people deliberately left show biz. Tony Dow left and lived a happy life.

Jennifer Aniston should be the queen of this thread. One major defining role and no others, no matter how many times they tried to ram her down our throats since.

Aniston has done fine.

Roz Kelly.

Brandon Cruz.

That chick from Flashdance and her costar too.

Cathy Silver - "Jenny Piccolo" Also, Billy Warlock - "Flip" happy Days had a lotta one-hit wonders

That reminds me of Roz "Pinky Tuscadero" Kelly. She was billed as a big thing on the show, and then *poof* she was gone.

Roz Kelly pretty much alienated all of the Happy Day cast and they got rid of the Pinky character despite her being so popular. They attempted to put her as Pinky on another show called Blansky's Beauties but Nancy Walker didn't like her either and demanded she be fired.

She struggled with a bipolar disorder, a silicone boob job gone bad and a botched leg surgery than left her unable to walk without a cane. Needless to say, she hasn't had an easy life.

Some of you guys are really wrong with your picks, Jason Alexander has been in a lot of films. LeBlanc was in Episodes and it is well liked.

"To be fair some of these people deliberately left show biz. Tony Dow left and lived a happy life."

When people leave it's usually because they can't get work

Alisan "Curly Sue" Porter

I can't believe no-one has said Linda Blair already. Famous for The Exorcist then bombed in everything else. Then she laughably claimed several years ago that she doesn't do and hasn't done horror movies. WTF?

R259 Candace Cameron Bure doesn't fit. Sure, she's back playing her old Full House character on Netflix but she also has a successful series of Hallmark murder mystery movies plus other Hallmark movies that are so popular they regularly get the biggest budgets over there. She's doing fine.

Jodie Sweetin is a better fit as she's essentially done nothing else other than play her Full House/Fuller House character. Even her biggest fans would be hard-pressed to come up with a second role she's played.

R274...um...sad crackhead for her second roll?

Taylor Lautner

[quote]Nobody on that fucking F(r)iends has any talent and they all slept their way to where they got when they all deserve the career oblivion usually reserved for the likes of Tina Yothers and Danny Ponce.

Except unlike Danny & Tina they received the gift that keeps on giving: ridiculous amounts of money - both from late in the series contracts and jaw dropping residual deals. Some of them have had respectable post show careers. None of them needed to have one. Basically all six of them won the Powerball and have the luxury of doing only what they want to do.

Florence Henderson?

Florence Henderson only had one hit TV show, yes, but was a Broadway star years before. She was on the Today Show in the 50's, was in Song of Norway, did those stupid Wesson Oil commercials and a million guest appearances on different shows over the years. She was certainly "heard from" before and after The Brady Bunch.

Oh man, "Song of Norway"! It had beautiful scenery and lovely music, but what a mess that film is. It's rarely seen nowadays, though apparently was pretty rarely seen when it came out. I recalled seeing gorgeous vistas in the film, but it seemed very kitschy. I wonder if it holds up for at least camp appeal now. Flo was not the problem -- she sang and looked very nice indeed.

R285, I managed to find videos of some of the most infamously bad movies ever for rent at video stores in the 1990s along with a lot of obscure and esoteric ones … except that one. That movie might have been better received had it been made in 1954.

Song of Norway - apparently the print ads for it included quotes from one or two reviews that weren't scathing. One of the quotes was something like "picks up where Sound of Music leaves off" and many people went to see it expecting a sequel.

Florence Henderson and a big hit in Fanny and of course most people love her performance in The Girl Who Came to Supper. The Coconut Girl sequence is one of the great thrills in cast recording history.

She is famous for many stage performances.

Oh, her "Walla Walla Boola" in the "Coconut Girl" sequence alone is to die for! I wonder how it was staged?

Hear it for yourself. The "Walla Walla Boola" comes on about 6:25. Flo is delightful.

R274 Linda Blair starred in some cult favorites like Hell Night, Chained Heat, and Savage Streets. That's why she's always working conventions and her lines are packed. Not just because of The Exorcist.

Milizia Korjus in "The Great Waltz" - Had a big career in Europe, came over to the U.S., Oscar nominated for her only Hollywood film, then she was in a bad car accident and after recovering did concertizing in Mexico and South America apparently.

Dave Madden - Reuben Kincaid - The Partridge Family

what is "concertizing"?

Timothy Hutton-Ordinary People

R290, you do realize it’s the Walla Walla Hula, right (which she finds more enticing than the Honolulu hula).

Timothy Hutton? Umm check out American Crime and How to Get Away With Murder

R296- I rest my case. I never heard of American Crime or How To Get Away With Murder.

R296 The wiki site for "The Girl Who Came to Supper" and the masterworksbroaway sites refer to it as the "Walla Walla Boola" Maybe it has something to do with "Boola Boola" which is a Yale cheer song, or some sort of 1920s craze.

Concertizing means to give concerts.

Dave Madden also co-starred with Nancy Kulp in "Camp Runamuck".

"I never heard of American Crime or How To Get Away With Murder."

I'll give you American Crime (which had good reviews but low ratings) but......you've never heard of How to Get Away With Murder? It's a pretty well known show and was discussed at the DL a lot

You haven’t even HEARD of Viola Davis’ masterpiece How to Get Away With Murder, let alone watched every episode??? Are you living under a rock?

Hutton was Emmy-nominated for American Crime (and was fantastic in it); Regina King won an Emmy and other cast members were nominated. It was a fantastic series and very critically acclaimed.

Michael Schoeffling

Margaret Hamilton had a successful carreer before and after playing the Wicked Witch of the West. She was stunt-cast in 1960 in "Thirteen Ghosts" as the housekeeper. She later made guest appearances in many tv shows and had several-years-long regular character as Cora, the Maxwell House coffee woman.

The cast of LOST has done well getting work since the end of that show's run.

Terry O'Quinn has worked steading, including a favorite of mine "666 Park Avenue."

Dominic Monaghan was already known for his work in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy and has done a lot of work since.

Jorge Garcia, Daniel Dae Kim and O"Quiinn have had co-starring roles in "Hawaii Five-O"

Harold Perrineau and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje both were on "OZ" before "LOST" and have gotten work since.

Josh Holloway has gotten a lot of TV work including "Intelligence" (which I liked but didn't last) and currently "Colony."

Naveen Andrews appeared in an Academy Award-winning best picture "The English Patient'", did several Bollywood films, and has gotten several series since "LOST" including "Sense8" and currently "Instinct."

The rest of the cast is too numerous to evaluate but sure, for some of them, this series would have been it. I would say Matthew Fox really hasn't done much since, but he had a series, "Party of Five" which had a good run before LOST.

r303, Colony was cancelled last year so it's not "current" and "Intelligence" flopped

Lookie here. Bi, straight or Scientologist now?

Peri Gilpin. Something must be off with her not to be able to land a sitcom development deal after a prominent role on one of the biggest sitcoms in the past 25 years.

Lots of big soap stars have not been able to parlay their soap fame into any other main roles, they leave for prime time or movies, it doesn't take off, they come back to role that made them famous.

Tony Geary and Michael E. Knight come to mind.
