Everybody on the island we have gotten back story on so far doesn't seem to have much in the way of "normal" family to miss though. Kate is a fugitive, so any family she has to miss was already being missed. Jack's father is dead, and he doesn't seem close to his mother. Locke seemed to be alone in the world except for the phone sex chick. Charlie is still focusing on the drugs/getting off of them, and the last scene with his brother wasn't a happy one. Sun has Jin there, and her father is a mobster. Boone has Shannon there. Walt has Michael, and Walt's mother is dead.
You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I'll betcha Scott and Steve are talking about it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I thought it was interesting in the article linked upthread that they removed a lot of stuff about what the families were doing while their loved ones were on the island. I'd actually like to see more of that.

No spoilers I don't think, but a really interesting article about Lost

BTW, I understand that tonight's ep should have a surprising revelation about Sawyer (supposedly on the order of the Locke surprise).
I wonder if Sawyer is really southern?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

This is why I'm glad that Charlie's backstory was so straightforward. If they were trying to go for HSQ with everyone's story, things would get into eyerolling territory right quickly.
If the revelation about Sawyer is supposed to be surprising (to the viewing audience as a whole, anyhow), then I'm assuming that the big surprise is that he's something like an English teacher or has some other occupation that one would not normally associate with "redneck."
