LOST (TV series spoilers)
@jackiback suggested a new post to talk about all things LOST.
It was spoiled for me that Sun and Jin drowned, but I was still wrecked when it happened.
It never ceased to amaze me the amount of drop dead gorgeous women on that show. Who you know would probably look phenomenal with no make up on.
Who was your favorite character? It's such a tough question.

Re: LOST (TV series spoilers)
I love all things Hurley, and Desmond. Des was yummy and I loved his story line.
This post reminds me that I really need to re-watch this series, because I totally don't remember Sun and Jin drowning. Bless you, Netflix!

I love Jack. And Charlie. I think Charlie might be my favorite. Every time I think of the 'Not Penny's boat' scene I want to cry.
I love how even dead characters were never really gone in this show.

I forgot about Sun and Jin too, but once you mentioned the submarine I kinda remember. Weren't they holding hands or hugging or something? I think I need to research on Netflix!

Sawyers cons were epic! You never could tell if he was trying to take advantage of a situation or if he was genuinely trying to be a good guy. Same with Ben, but in a completely different way.

It was fitting, but I was sad that he didn't go to the church with everyone else when they asked him to. It's like they all forgave him, but he knew he'd done too much to be truly forgiven.

I LOVED des & penny. Of the "originals" I loved Sayid the most and thought he was bad ass and complex.
Kate's hair became a running joke in our house. Those curly locks would have been a frizzy mess.
It kind of pissed me off that Jin would rather let someone else raise their baby than leave Sun. I feel like Sun would have been like "um, go to our kid, idiot." Right!?!?

I think that the episode when we met Desmond was outstanding. I also loved when we first met the others and then saw that they were just living super normally and it was like "wtf?!? What is going onnnnnn??"
Another quote we use a lot is "light 'em up!" For a situation where we're in a lot deeper crap than we first thought... Remember feeling like "omg, how are there so many of them?!?"
I love this show.
I love Desmond. Just love. His and Penny's story was the best for me.
One thing that I can't remember being explained.....When Hurley was in the insane asylum, wasn't Libby there too?

I loved almost all the characters. Exceptions being Michael and I wasn't a huge Kate fan.
I think Charlie was my absolute favorite though. Not Penny's Boat wrecked me. And Hurley's reaction to finding out about Charlie. Other top favorites were Desmond and Sayid
I bawl at all the deaths, but the worst for me were Boone, Charlie, Juliet, and Sun and Jin.
It upset me that Sayid's death was almost kind of hidden in the Sun/Jin death episode.
