Trivia
- Malcolm David Kelley grew significantly taller between seasons, which created a continuity challenge the writers dealt with by writing Walt off the Island.
- Walt's psychic abilities (birds crashing into windows, appearing in places he shouldn't be) were never fully explained in the show.
- Walt is the only character whose special abilities are acknowledged by the Others as being uniquely important, even more so than the candidates.
