There were a few things that annoyed me about last season.
Daniel constantly talking in whispers got annoying really fast.
Jack and Kate. Pretty much everything about them. If that H-Bomb hasn't finished them off then I hope Smokey is hungry early on next season. It was great when Sawyer kicked Jack in the nuts. Also, just a little thing, but Kate ruined the continuity of travelling through time because in the earlier seasons she had a gap between her front teeth but now she has the en vogue plastic horse-like buck tooth look.
Is there anyone on the island who doesn't speak about fifteen languages?
Some things I did like.
Miles. I like him. He just seems like a regular and cool guy.
Kenny Rogers. I like him, too.
Ben. He seemed so much more human this season. Far less assured of himself, and even though it's still impossible to judge his character, he is still the character who intreages me the most.

The 1 hour info episode that took place before the show, the writers pointed out that Richard is the only one in 1977 and 2007. I'm thinking that he's the same guy just 30 years later. Just doesn't age as Locke pointed out. I never realized that Richard was the only one in both times until they said it. That episode was very informative

Yeah, I just don't think he has aged since arriving on the island. I think, like Jacob may have/had, he has eternal life. Richard seems just too good and innocent to me, I'm expecting a brutal heel turn from him next season.

I'm expecting Ben to come out a face. Because no matter how much Ben lied he ALWAYS does what's best for the island. The only time he didn't was when he killed Locke. He revealed to Richard that he tried to kill him because he thought he'd be trouble as a leader. So we know Ben's a liar, but the monster let him LIVE. That's the most important thing.
With that said, when's the monster going to rip Sayid to shreds?

Fake Locke IS the monster as far as i can tell. I do not trust him or Jacob and Richard to be good. Somehow Ben is going to end up being the hero.

He always sounds like he's trying to sexually seduce the person he's talking to
As MS said, Ben's character is so intriguing even though he's the hardest to read. That is exactly what makes him so intriguing(that he's hard to read). I think they're slowly starting to unveil that all of his actions are due to him having such a shitty childhood and simply just being insecure with trust issues. We knew from seasons ago that his dad was a drunk who always forgot his birthday. Then to top it off Sayid shoots him and tries to kill him. Like he said to Jacob, what about me?(what about RavBen). I think Ben simply just wants the attention he believes he deserves after serving as such a peasant to Jacob and now to Locke who's only been on the island like 1/8 of the amount of time Ben's been there. The writers even said Ben's biggest beef is he simply wants to be the leader so he can finally feel important. I have a feeling that after the series finale we're still never going to be 100% on what Ben is truly all about. It's like he's lied so much that even if he tells the truth about himself, the audience can't even believe him.
But if it does come down to Ben coming to full honestly, I believe Michael Emerson will be able to pull it off convincingly if anyone can

The intentions of the characters need to be made clear to the viewers. At least. At this point it is still hard read many of the characters.
Daniel's mother is strange. I've no idea what she is all about. I'm not sure what it would mean on the grander scale, but when Richard knocked her out and said he was "protecting [his] leader", I'm thinking he was referring to her. Maybe she is another banished leader, like Widmore, who is also trying to get back to the island at any cost.

So the Moses dude is infact the guy in Locke's body. Something tells me SM is kind of right about the smoke monster being in Locke. Basically I'm thinking Moses is the monster

I think that is what we are supposed to be thinking right now. I still think it is a seperate entity.

We'll never know until May 2010. But this show is so interesting, you could just stay on this thread figuring out different shit in your head every week for the rest of the year. They've really made it that unpredictable. This show is like the greatest written show I've ever seen. It seems like they had all 6 seasons written before they even aired the very first series eps. It's just such a long brilliant road. Brilliantly written movies are usually never longer than 3 hours tops. This series is almost like 100 hrs of straight amazing writing

Although I really enjoy Lost, I still think that a large portion of the show is filler and quite unnecessary. It adds to the richness of the show, but I think the story and the characters would still be as deep if they really had to squeeze the show into 3 or 4 seasons.

That war that went on last season went on a little too long. I think no matter how good a program is, there's always going to be something we don't like. The thing that pissed me off about season 4 is that it turned into an action series and I just felt like there was too much pointless killing as opposed to that one important kill. Then again, I think it was the writers way of trying to show that war is inevitable on the island. So some things may have been more necessary than it appeared on tv. It was just drawn out

The thing that pissed me off about season 4 is that it turned into an action series and I just felt like there was too much pointless killing as opposed to that one important kill. I agree. About two thirds through last season I'd had enough of everyone walking back and forward through the jungle with machine guns strapped over their shoulders. I don't think that conflict had to stretch over a whole season. Even if the writers were trying to prove Moses' point of visitors to the island fighting, then that had already happened in the previous seasons when the crash survivors killed off most of Ben's group.

If they wanted to show that the war with "the others" or simply just "others" was going to go down, then make 2 episodes out of it and move on. I think the reason I disliked it so much is because one of the most fun things about that show is it's production and the beach/jungle setting with the waves. Most of the show took place either in the woods or in the real world. On the island Jack and Locke split the herd and sort of became each other's new version of "others". Jack and Locke just didn't see eye to eye and I wanted to see more of them butting heads as opposed Sawyer turning into commando. They made Sawyer so serious last season because he was always getting shot at. I'm glad that some of the old Sawyer is back now, just with a much bigger heart.

Out of all the characters, Sawyer has probably went through the biggest transformation. If you go back and watch an earlier episode from season one, he is almost unrecognisable. He's just a loner with shorter hair that wants to be left alone with all his "stuff". His stuff mainly being books, beer and porno mags.
