Summary

Screenshot from ABC's lost, used to promote a specific character. No free alternative is available, and it used to describe a character and not the actor.

Fair use rationale

This image is being linked in the Hugo "Hurley" Reyes article on the English Wikipedia, and although it is subject to American copyright laws, I believe that it is covered by fair use laws because:

• It is of web resolution, i.e. it is of a lower quality than the original copy
• It clearly identifies the subject in question
• It is accompanied by commentary on the episode and character
• It feature a significant character
• ABC does not lose any rights to sell and advertise the show
