Justice for the women
I’m a few episodes away from the finale and can’t believe how poorly most of the women were written. Outside of the first time watcher discussion, I have avoided this sub so I’m not sure if this is a common criticism but fucking hell they all suck. Kate is a horrible person who only exists to track every now and again while bouncing between Jack and Sawyer. The only slight redemption she had was raising Aaron which also felt forced as she never showed the ability to care for anyone deeply other than herself. Sun was built up to be so great and now I’m watching her revert to Michael-Walt just constantly moaning about finding Jin. Claire’s obviously not really a character anymore after the “sickness” or whatever but even before that she was only relevant for being pregnant also a HORRIBLE actress. Charlotte had a very brief role(thank fuck) but another terrible actress with no real substance to the story besides being Daniel’s love interest. Even Eloise wasn’t really anything besides a weird lady who said some vague bullshit to push everyone to their places. Shannon and Anna Lucia both sucked and were erratic/low IQ. The only interesting characters for me were Juliet, Danielle and Alex(maybe Libby if she didn’t get blasted so early) WHO ALL DIED ANTI-CLIMATICALLY. I get the sense that many were casted to be eye candy rather than giving them proper characterization. Sorry for the wall of text but I needed to vent after how disappointing the writing was for all the women.

Does it get better?
So first time watcher here. On s3e05. I loved the first season. Second season was meh. Too much happening all at one rather than building. Does it get better and answer all the questions or the romance side gonna change and try to do something else? No spoilers please

Head whacking
Currently rewatching for the millionth time, and I’m noticing just how many people get head whacked unconscious each episode! Has anyone ever done a tally of how many head whacks occur throughout the show? If they weren’t on the island, surely they’d all have CTE by now.
I’m getting old and these are the things I notice.

Not Penny’s Podcast, a new LOST rewatch podcast with a twist!
Friend and I are recording our “Episode 0: Introduction” and “Episode 1: Guys…Where are we?” covering the pilot episodes this week! The twist is I’m the Lostie who watched weekly during the broadcast and multiple rewatches, and she hasn’t watched any episodes (outside of the pilot last night)! Looking forward to watching this and discussing it again with a totally new viewer!
Not sure how much social media promotion we will do as I don’t want things spoiled for her and we all know there are those people who feel it’s their “duty” to “spare her” watching, and will spoil the entire series. We’re discussing social media approaches.

What head cannon do you have that you will not let go of?
Mine is that David is actually Jack's son that Kate was pregnant with when they went back to the island. He wasn't a figment of the sideways, he was real.

Guys, I did something
I'm on my first rewatch ever after 15 years and just compiled a full list of nicknames said either by Sawyer or anyone else on Season 1.
Now can you guys guess which one of these were not said by Sawyer? Because I really forgot to write that down lmao 👀😂
I wrote them down mostly as they showed up.
Nicknames:
The Island itself (or specific locations within it):
Jungle of Mystery, Magic Forest, Craphole Island, Sandy Shore Depression, Cave Town, Rape Caves.
Kate:
Freckles.
Shannon:
Sticks.
Sayid:
Al Jazeera, Mohammad, Omar, Ali.
Jin:
Chinese Dude, Bruce, Chewie.
Jack:
Saint Jack, Doc, Chico.
Sawyer:
Tex (off-island), Harry Potter.
Hugo:
Hurley.
Claire:
Missy Claire.
Charlie:
Has-Been Pop Star, Limey Rant, Chuckey.
Michael:
Mickey, Mike, Han.
Aaron:
Turnip-Head.
Really interesting how richer and fun the dialogues become when these come up.
I'm having a great time.

Do you think Sun slept with the bald guy?
Not Mr. Clean but rather the son of the hotel chain. The flashback ended when it looked like they were about to share an intimate moment.
EDIT: Second time through but my first was the original airing of the show, seems I’ve forgotten some things.

Original Ending
Does anyone know if there’s any information on the original season 3 plan? I know that originally Lost was supposed to be a 3 season show but I’ve never heard any details on how the original season 3 was supposed to go before ABC didn’t allow them to end it. And if there isn’t any information, does anyone think that we’ll ever find out the original plans?

Smother me with all the old theories, pleeeease!
Spoilers ALL ahead!
I’m on my 27373848482th rewatch and I wanna hear all the old crackpot theories that were prevalent while Lost was airing! I watched it weekly back then, but I don’t remember looking too much into the community online and I’m curious what interesting and fun takes that I missed. I don’t care if they are theories that have been proven wrong, OR right, OR are still totally up in the air, just hit me with them. I also don’t care if it’s an in-universe theory or an event that is inspired by the real world/cast!
Some that I remember:
\- it’s dinosaurs..! But no, it’s just the smoke monster being a dick.
\- Adam and Eve bones were Jack and Kate. Somehow. Time travel shit i guess.
\- Sawyer was actually THE same Sawyer he saw while hiding under the bed as a kid :(
\- the Constant is one of the greatest episodes of tv of all time. Not really a theory, kinda just a fact.
ANDDD if you say THAT other theory (iykyk) then gimme reasons why you believed it, and how you felt in the finale when Christian confirmed it wasn’t true :)

Bernard post-crash
Bernard was in the bathroom, according to Rose and was part of the tail section survivors. “Goodwin” led Anna Lucia to where Bernard was up in a tree, in an airplane seat. Assuming he was in the bathroom, or walking his way back to the front of the plane when the tail was ripped off, how did he end up securely buckled into a seat in a tree?
