Who's your favorite character on LOST ?
Mine is Sawyer.Yeah I know what you're thinking.He's a jerk.But in my opinion he's a pretty interesting character.Is he such a jerk after all ? Pretty complex guy.(And I'm really not like him).

What's your favorite character ?

2. He's my favorite, too.
Second in line is Sayid.

For some reason, I can't stand Jack any more. There's something about him that's a little off.

14. I know.
The actor is imitating Tom Cruise too much.

4. Sayid
I like him because his 'dark' past is one that was forced on him by his society and he obviously broke away from it and rebelled. Came to the light, so to speak.

My one problem is that they have an Arab character and they get an ethnic Indian to play the part. People just cause the guy got brown skin doesn't mean you can interchange him with whoever.

I remember a couple of movies from the 80s and 90s had problems because Arab actors didn't want to play the negative stereotypical roles in them....so they got indians or hispanics to play the parts.

He seems like a character they could have at least freaking tried to cast an actual arab in the role.

Still I like him. He's smart, and seems to be one of the few people trying to use his brain to figure out what's up.

15. Yep. Like him too.
Picture that : In Bush America a TV show character is an Iraqi from the republican guard.And the guy is human, not a propaganda cliché.

7. I like most of them...
Jack turned out to be more annoying than I thought but thankfully he's blended into the background.

I also like that they didn't make Sawyer simply a good guy with a dark veneer. He's neither as bad nor as good as they ever want you to see on that show.

8. Charlie
I think he's cool.

I like Hurley too. I hope we get to hear from him more. I think its great that not everybody on the show has to be hardbodies. Although there are a lot of those two.

Plus I like the Korean woman. Although I wish she would stand up more to her husband. I think she may become an important character.

13. Back off ladies.
He's obviously not interested in you. He needs a real man to take care of him. :)

10. Locke
I just love watching Terry O'Quinn act, and I love the character. Though the gentleman who plays Sayeed is, as they say, very easy on the eyes....

11. Siyid is hot and smart...
and Hurley cracks me up, but my favorite is Wallt, perhaps it's his innocence and his open mindedness, but I think that kid is learning to adapt and become a very kick butt little boy.

16. For looks it's Sayid hands down....woo hooo....dark and he
has curly hair and lots of it.

Because of my love of LOTR...my second fave character is Charlie...


The Deadhead in me likes Hurley and hopes that he's a head. He's definitely got the Deadhead vibe about him.

22. TV Guide said that by the end of the season
a character that the audience "was invested in" was going to be killed off. Now I'm a nervous wreck to see which one it'll be.

23. No no... its all good now, because technically Charlie was "killed"...
he was dead, but Jack brought him back.


Right, right... they can't kill someone off now.... uh right! :think:

29. Keep thinking those good thoughts
I was totally shocked about Charlie, until Jack brought him back. I really thought that was the end of him.

32. Damn, you should have seen me during that episode.
I was ranting and raving! I was going to stop watching if they killed him off.

36. They won't kill him off
I read an interview with J. J. Abrams in which he said that Charlie gets the most fan mail - so he promised not to eliminate him. :)

35. Shannon is interesting
Because you can tell she's trying, you know, trying to be something diferent than what she was in the real world. It's kind of hard with her step-brother all, "you suck, you used to be a bullimic, you're worthless and I had to pay boyfriends to leave you alone and then you seduced me into semi-incest" but at every point, she's trying to prove him wrong. She's NOT worthless, she IS tying to help. It's kind of like everyone's on equal ground.

But my favorite character is Kate.
