At the surprise party, they had a number of people there - some of O6, Hurley's parents, and I thought I saw Starla (not sure though), but no Johnny? I wanted to see him, especially since there could have been some exchanged apologies, or even just a brief scene of him.

Johnny hooked up with Starla, as indicated in 'Tricia Tanaka is Dead'

Yeah. Johnny and Starla, like, ran off together, dude.

Ya, I know. I was just noting my observations. I thought I saw Starla ... probably wrong. But I was still hoping to see Johnny because he was a Season 2 character that was shown on only one episode.

DJ Qualls is too busy acting in EVERYTHING ELSE to reappear on Lost.:)

Those tools don't deserve to be at Hurley's party. He has much cooler friends now.

It's really sad what happened with Johnny. Poor Hurley...

And Jack was running late as pointed out to Kate..

I was looking for Johnny too, but then I remembered the whole Starla thing...but I thought maybe Hurley not being dead would override their embarassment or fear. Maybe DJ was just unavailable.

I was hoping we'd see Randy. That dude pops up everywhere!

He does ... few Lost fans know he appeared in the Season 4 Premier to record Hurley's chase scene.

But while there were hurt feelings over Johnny and Hurley's relationship, I think it'd be more likely for Johnny to show up rather than Randy. I don't think even Hurley's crazy parents would let him come.
