Naveen Andrews played Lost's Sayid Jarrah for the entirety of the show's six seasons, and though several cast members were outspoken about how disappointed they were with various creative decisions throughout the series' run, it's clear that Andrews above all others viewed Lost as just a job.

After the show's third season aired, Andrews vocally complained about the writing, noting a "drop in quality," even while appreciating how incredibly well paid the role was.

Shortly before the fourth season aired, he said, "I'm still proud of the first season, around the third I thought they were winging it, the writing was poor [but] I'm definitely doing two more years."

Andrews has also reiterated in numerous interviews that he's only ever watched the pilot episode of the show and had no real investment in it beyond getting the work done.
