I have been assimilated

As [livejournal.com profile] mosinging1986 knows, I've finally been talked into watching LOST. I'm now four episodes in. Someone tell me, do Sawyer and Locke improve at all? Because right now the former is annoying me and the latter is creeping me out. Though I have to say the "Walkabout" episode was beautifully done. I've picked up an awful lot about the show and the characters over the years, through what they call "fandom osmosis," but apparently not as much as I thought, because I truly did not see that twist coming.

Anyway, given the way that TV shows go, those two will probably turn out to be the big heroes or something.

Locke's always kinda creepy, I guess. But his storyline is heartbreaking once you learn it. I always loved him.

And Sawyer's a doll! Don't let the tough guy act fool you. He's just a big ol' puppy.

*pets*

It WAS kind of funny when he said, "Right behind you, jackass."

I can't remember. You're making me want to do a rewatch now. I think it's on Hulu. I rewatched the Pilot recently. I've only seen most eps once. There's so much I've forgotten!

And 'Walkabout' is one of my favorite TV eps of any show, ever.

I couldn't help giggling at your icon. He says that a LOT.

It took me, um, five seasons to like Sawyer. Or rather, it took me at least one season to find him interesting in spite of being a huge jerk, and then the next four seasons before I actually liked him in addition to finding him interesting.

Locke: he gets a HUGE role to play in everything, and once some of the enigma is erased, he won't be as creepy. In fact, your beloved Finch will take over the COMPLETE CREEPER role once he shows up. And Locke's additional story is cool, and Ben is Ben, for good and ill both.

Lost is one of those shows that is more about 'that weird and cool trip we can take together' than about actually arriving anywhere. If you can accept that mindset, you'll be fine. It's one of the few shows I liveblogged on LJ from time to time, mostly because typing POLAR BEARS?!?! randomly is fun.

(I believe it was someone else's liveblog that first inspired the OMGWTFPOLARBEARS! meme.)

Yes, so I've heard. That's going to be interesting. :-)
