Actor Harold Perrineau, who played Michael, told Ryan that the show constantly favored the white characters over the people of color. When Perrineau attempted to bring up his concerns, they were met with indifference or outright hostility. Eventually, he was fired before season 3 began shooting.

Multiple sources related that when Perrineau's departure from the show was discussed, Lindelof said, "[he] called me racist, so I fired his ass."
