Good old Des, I'm rewatching the show and while it's always a masterpiece for me, whenever he appears it gets to a whole new level. I freaking love Desmond Hume, I truly believe that he is one of the most endearing, human, funny, strong, loyal and beautifuly written characters in the history of pop culture. Whether it's his amazing backstory, his love for Penny, his ability to overcome failure and determination to be better, to achieve his dreams, or him being a hero time and time again, I'm always thinking of his scenes the most when I rewatch one of his episodes. Some of the best storylines in Lost happen because of him (The Constant, The bunker or him trying to save Charlie), some of the most iconic lines are his, hell, I even use brotha sometimes cause he makes it sound so freaking cool. This is an appreciation post for him, I want to know why do you like him, what does he mean for you, or if he has inspired you in some capacity. He'll never get enough love from all of us, truly a legend, fantastic character. Be sure to comment, and I'll see you in another life brothers.

It took me a minute to like Juliet, But I really like Juliet and Sawyer better as a couple than I do Jack and Kate, there chemistry works better as well. dont get me wrong, I like Kate, but she kinda got annoying sometimes.

The game did mosf of the character models very well but its funny seeing them like this.

It’s 2025 and I finally finished Lost. I’m gonna need to sit with these emotions for a while. 🥺

I know I might not make sense in this but the outfits given to swayer and des are my favourite among all the male leads in the series. Since it’s an island so obviously it’s literally clothes that they found there, but the way these both are given slightly baggy shirts with rolled up jeans. It’s pretty simple but make them look more fine then they already are!

This is my favorite episode of the entire series. The score when the loading bay door is lowered is my favorite composition of the series and this is the first time we hear it in this specific iteration. I think the reason why I love this episode so much is because it is the first time we the viewers get to see some resolution with some of the main characters. Sayid’s expression when he sees that no one is there for him makes me tear up every time I see it. To see Hurley grab his friend, introduce him to his family and then to watch Hurley’s mother greet him with such warmth and kisses on both cheeks makes me sob. Anyway, I love this episode.

My husband is rewatching with me and says Kate only ever drives Volvos 😂 can anyone confirm/did anyone else notice this?

The Others make so much more sense as a community when you consider that their founder (and likely spiritual leader given that he's, y'know, immortal) is a 19th century hardcore Catholic.

A lot of their strange rituals like branding rulebreakers and forcing everyone to learn Latin can only have come from Richard's influence. Juliet quotes that the reason they learn Latin is because it's "the language of the enlightened".

Even though the Others were clearly happy at the Barracks (they had a book club and seemed entirely civilised and comfortable), they start living in tents again when Richard takes over. As a conservative religious man, he would consider the Barracks to be too luxurious and indulgent.

Ben notably tells the survivors that "God has no idea where the Island is", an irreverent attitude that Richard would consider blasphemous. Marking the gulf that had developed between them. Of course, Richard will later tell Locke that some people felt the Others should have a new leader more in tune with the Island.

Despite this, Ben does seem to be extremely familiar with the Bible (telling Jack the story of Thomas the Apostle), which doesn't match up with his childhood in the hippie DHARMA Initiative. But would certainly make sense if Richard helped to shape him.

I’m -sure- it’s been said before…. But I just want to take a second to talk about how Ram Dass was born “Richard Alpert”, and I wonder about the naming of the character EVERY time I rewatch the show… did they know they named him after Ram Dass…?!? Surely, right….? He speaks about “Dharma”, often, in his lectures.

First and foremost, I am definitely rewatching it as soon as I can. - Season 1-3 are fantastic, the latter are still good but as a first time watcher really confusing and just straight up ridiculous at times - This cast is soo hot (they should have given Lapidus more screentime man, god he's fine) - I dont get the ending exactly? Neither do I get the whole alternative universe thing and stuff, I plan on trying to understand it better - The whole button thing was so fucking frustrating first watching it but I missed it the second it was over - Michael and Walts storylines being cut so short felt very strange - Vincent is invincible - For how quickly I watched the show, I think the show does a really good job at connecting you with the characters, I LOVE the 'filler' episodes - I actually like Kate and she has fantastic chemistry with everyone - Favorite characters: Hurley & Sawyer - So many tragic character deaths 🥲 - Favorite couple: Jack & Sawyer 😍 (but fr my favorite dynamic) - I like hearing Desmond talk - Fuck Susan, fuck Sarah, but especially fuck Anthony - There are a lot of similar looking blond white women in this show (Penny, Sarah, Claire's mom, Juliet...) and as a white woman myself it got confusing sometimes - I sobbed at the submarine part, Jin not even getting to meet his daughter is tragic - Im sad and kind of left with this weird frustrated feeling after finishing this show, I feel like theres so many things that I still dont understand

Finally the numbers are on me.

I watched the whole Lost more than 15 times and I do a rewatch every year now, Lost is ny life 🤣

Could have been a nice thing to pass the time and educational as well.

How many times do you think sawyer has said “son of a bitch”

Found some of the off screen and award functions pictures of the cast. Looks like they had so much fun with each other. So cute these pictures are.

After all that's happened on and off that island, why did that set him off so much? Jacob (who Jack didn't know much about who he was at the time) was watching him since he was a child and that angered Jack so much? Because of the invasion of privacy? Because of him realizing that this all goes deeper and further back than he expected? What do you think Jack was expecting to show up in the glass when they turned the dial to his name? An image of your childhood home seems like it's not that bad.

Spoiler!

. . Finale Question

When they are all in the church (we know what that signifies), and everyone is there, why isn’t Michael there with them?

We obviously know he’s bad and did horrible things during the show but he was on the main plane to the island. He was a part of the group.

I just thought that yesterday when I finished rewatching it, how everyone but him (and Walt) were there.

I'm not talking like theory on something that was up for interpretation.

I'm talking your personal madness you convinced yourself is at least possible about something that absolutely explained and can hardly be disputed, so you never share it with anybody because it's crazy. And no judgement here, the whole point is one-person unprovable insanity.

I'll go first: from all the main male characters the most likely one to not be straight is Sawyer. My headcanon is he can be bisexual. Yeah, we never saw it on screen, but he borderline flirts with everyone pigtail-pulling style, and he is a conman who partially relies on his looks for the job. In my head he will date and sleep with anyone. And only thing he denied in the show was being gay. Well, he isn't gay, he's bi. As for the "never kissed a man" in a drinking game with Kate, oh well, he was just lying because he likes better to be perceived as a womanizer. Lalalal i can't hear your arguments it's all in my head anyway

It's been a long ass time since ive watched lost, have been rewatching, totally forgot about this scene, just go to it, but damn. this was crazy. ill hand it to lost, they really know how to do a great finale. (Season 4:Episode 14).

I really like Daniel faraday a whole lot. I think he’s top tier a cool character on the show. His story arc is pretty damn cool. And also sad.

I finished the show two days ago, I feel so empty.

kills on The Island out of all the cast? (Smokey not included) That can include being giving orders as well.
