I used to like Lost because of its story. It was intriguing, the way they managed to ratchet up the mystery and suspense with every episode. Anymore though, it's tiresome. Example: "Here are the answers to the mysteries you seek -- but wait, the answers are themselves enigmatic, only providing even more questions! Ha ha!"

I still watch the show in a desultory fashion - not because the story is any good, but because I like some of the characters. Unfortunatley, the main characters who get most of the attention are dishwater-dull. I just don't care about Sawyer, Jack or Kate at all - there's not a one of 'em with anything interesting to say, and being sooo broody, and sooo sexy, and sooooo misunderstood gets really old, really fast.
But Hurley and Desmond? LOVE those guys. I've taken to calling people "brother" in Desmond's voice, because it's so nuttily charming. And Hurley? Tell me you wouldn't want to pull up a big plate of nachos and play some Xbox 360 with that guy. Dude.
So here, then, is my dream episode of "Lost".

Really, just that for an hour. I'd be delighted. C'mon "Lost" - let's make it happen.

I think I'd start watching the show again JUST for that episode.
I agree... definitely my two favorite characters.
Booooooooooring.
I can't abide stupid men.
The point of having an ensemble cast is so everyone can have their favorite character.
They completely mishandled the whole Jack-Kate-Sawyer thing, but that doesn't make the characters boring or the actors bad. It's bad screenwriting that's holding the bloody knife.
Besides, we all know who the Most Intriguing Character on the Island is. As far as I'm concerned, the rest of the show is just scenery for John Locke. ;)
But Sawyer remains BOOOORRRRIIIIIINNNNNG.
(if anything that's in this LJ is not my opinion, I'll be sure to point it out. Otherwise, assume it's just my point of view.)

I was quite distraught the other night. I stayed up to watch Lost (against my better judgement, since I have to be at the hospital before 6) and fell asleep halfway through. I woke up at 2 am! I had to look up an online recap to find out that... Okay, what was it I found out, exactly? I'm still not sure.
(also, i'm randomly reminded to ask: are you still coming out this weekend, or was that the thing i seem to remember you saying about the tickets getting messed up?)
Next time, next occaision. Soon, anyway!
