Lost stars Naveen Andrews and Dominic Monaghan are bemoaning the lack of screen time they have in the third season of the desert island show.
The British actors earn a reported $78,000 a week playing Sayid Jarrah (Andrews) and Charlie Pace (Monaghan), but admit they spend a lot of time sitting around with nothing to do.
Andrews says, "Even though I like getting paid for doing nothing, it is nice occasionally to work."
Monaghan adds, "As one person works more, work is being taken away from another. You have to make your peace with that.
Executive producer Carlton Cuse explains, "The actors are frustrated. They're all really good at what they do and it's difficult when they don't get a chance to do it."
