10 Best TV Villains Of The 2000s
9. Benjamin Linus – Lost
When Benjamin was first introduced in Lost no one thought he would turn out to be the cunning, smart villain he was found to be later on. But that was the beauty of Ben’s character. His calmness and reason made him continuously interesting and captivating, as one could never know if he was telling the truth, or leading someone into one of his dark plans.
Ben first came into Lost as a lost survivor under a different name, and he stuck to his story even after taking repeated punches to the face. Only later did his devious, cheating side come out, and his true nature shone through as he took the island away from our group of survivors.
Ben has gone down in history as one of TV’s most interesting and unique villains, and viewers were kept on edge throughout the seasons of Lost, with his ever-changing moral compass and building insanity.
