There's always got to be at least one bitchy person in a crowd - it'll get boring otherwise. Fans need a character to hate and Shannon gets my vote (for now).
You're like my fairy godmother, and Santa Claus, and Q all wrapped up into one! Q from Bond, not Star Trek.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I think I would want to phrase this as "who could be considered unattractively overweight." In Samoa, he'd be a hunka, hunka burning love.

Are you sure you don't mean "raptored" right off the island, Matt?
Given that Locke and possibly Jack's deceased father got "better" on the island, I'd prefer safely assumed into Misty Magic Land where we'll never have to hear from her again.

I was fine when existence had no meaning. Meaninglessness in a universe that has no meaning -- that I get. But meaninglessness in a universe with
meaning? What does that mean?
I'd like to see more Sawyer/Shannon interaction. Right now he's the only person who can actually get the best of her, and it's great.
And every show does need a bitch. I find her hilarious (and I love that crossword puzzle, P-C. My friend and I managed to get all but three answers).

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

When I first saw it, I thought it was an old puzzle that was relevant, but then I looked at the clues and started laughing my ass off. I haven't tried to do it myself. Maybe I'll try right now.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Am I the only one who finds Shannon not entertainingly bitchy in the least? I think it's the actress -- I just don't buy her.

There are little things that lead me to think Hurley's intelligent, just not well educated. I'll have to think about it.
And the only "dumb" things he's said is a simple misspelling (common one, too) and the remark about dinosaurs, which, given the circumstances isn't that far out.
He's just a "Dude!" kinda guy, but not a Keanu Reeves character-type level of dumb.

Hurley knew how to fish, yes?

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Shannon isn't doing anything in particular for me, Jessica, though I find Sawyer more irritating.
Locke and Charlie both pop for me as characters with some depth--I mean, that's portrayal not writing, but they feel like people instead of archetypes. I like Hurley and Sayid a lot--they almost pop for me--and, surprisingly, Claire. Oh, wait, no, it's not surprising. Claire's earnest. I always like the earnest ones.

I just loved the way Charlie and Claire had that moment when he was asking about her baby. It was so sweet and it seemed as if Charlie really did care instead of just asking out of politeness.
