Changes: Neil "Frogurt"

Revision as of 12:03, 16 November 2007

Neil "Frogurt" was first mentioned (though not seen) in the episode "S.O.S." as one of the peripheral characters who offered to help Bernard build a sign. He later abandoned the project, ostensibly having lost interest. He is sometimes know as "The Frozen One" by Lost fans.

Frogurt was finally seen in a mobisode, where he told Hurley that he was also interested in Libby. ("The Adventures of Hurley and Frogurt")

Neil's actual family name is not yet confirmed. Bernard referred to him as "the guy who used to make frozen yogurt," so Frogurt could indeed be his name (a condition of life imitating art). More likely is that it is merely an occupational nickname. When Hurley calls him "Frogurt", he corrects that with "Neil". ("S.O.S.") ("The Adventures of Hurley and Frogurt")

Trivia

Neil "Frogurt" was first mentioned by Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof in the April 3rd, 2006 Official Lost Podcast as one of the yet-unidentified survivors who would soon become more "interesting."
This promise was repeated on July 26, 2007 at the Comic Con 2007 at San Diego.
The word "frogurt" is well known in popular culture via a Halloween episode of The Simpsons in which Homer is persuaded to buy a cursed doll because "it comes with a free frogurt!" (the frogurt is also cursed).
Greg Grunberg, J.J. Abrams' childhood friend who played the Pilot in "Pilot, Part 1", actually started and ran a successful frozen yogurt business. Not that he would play Neil (since he's busy as a cop in Heroes) and played the pilot, but this is likely where Neil's unusual occupation came from.
