Because the actor didn't want to stick around.

No, really, that's it.

Per Wikipedia, it took a lot of convincing to get him there in the first place, and he didn't like it in Hawaii, so he asked to be written out.

Definitely. Also if you don't get the ending you are an idiot.

I can understand people not liking it. People saying, "I don't get it" or "So they were in purgatory the whole time?" are idiots.

This happened to be the only period I watched wrestling, 1997-1999. I remember joining the Goldberg hype train from day one, and I ate up Stone Cold Steve Austin like a small town redneck. I was basically the wrestling equivalent of a Chuck Lorre fan. :barf:

I wonder if Lindelof/Cuse will ever admit to that of if it was just coincidence. As it happens though, no he wasn't. He, for some reason, didn't want to live in Hawaii and wanted to pursue other roles. The only other thing I saw him in was GI Joe.

In other news. Jim Belushi has been cast in David Simon's new show.

He had a fairly big role in Hunted.
