I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

With what we have seen so far I don't see any overwhelming evidence of a heart of gold in Sawyer.

Yeah. He did look horror-struck when the marshall started gurgling and choking after his botched mercy killing, but I'd like to think that would be the minimum requirement for being considered human. No heart of gold required.

I don't know if the extremely accelerated woobification is over him looking upset by a note and reading a children's book, looking (allegedly) hot without his shirt, or if it's just people mapping their pre-existing Spike issues onto the network character that currently most resembles him. From the tone of the posts in question, I wouldn't be surprised to find out that the latter is playing into it. (And I'm trying to figure out if it's also influencing my own negative response to the character, or if that's been earned by his asshattedness.)

So that makes me the only one holding out for Claire's baby has two mommies?

Kate can roll her eyes when Claire is doing the baby's star chart, and Claire can roll her eyes when Kate moons after the most oblivious doctor in history.

Edit: should that be swoons?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I think the actor playing Sawyer has a lot of charm (and killer dimples). Sawyer as a character I find pretty repellent.

I am finding a strange dichotomy with this show. The writing in the present day--the "boring" writing about finding water and sorting clothes and food--I am really enjoying. The deeper, character and backstory stuff is (especially in the last two episodes) clunkier and way less interesting to me. I am hoping the trend reverses soon.

Just googled my ass off, trying to discover the last two authors of Lost.

Internet people gots no taste.

t Agreeing with Robin, both because it is wise to always do so and because she is, as always, irritatingly, but fetchingly, correct.

No, I'd like that outcome too - except I'm torn because I also want to see Charlie/Claire.

The only way they could redeem Jack/Kate for me at this point would be by making Jack gay or asexual (the latter would be even braver for a "big" show's lead character!). Kate is so annyong with her KateySueishness that Sawyer/Kate or Sayid/Kate would be kind of a letdown. Except for the fact that I want NEED to see Sayid getting some action due to the extreme hottitude factor.

I still can't believe that Naveen Andrews is the same guy that I lusted after so long ago in The English Patient. Kudos to JJ for bringing him to our TVs.

Bring it. I think I can defend this assertion.
