JOHN LOCKE

Yes, I know, LOST is soooooo over. But I haven’t said my peace yet. I adore this show. I have all 6 seasons, money well spent. The best money was on season 1 though—like I said in a previous post, I like installments where characters are introduced to the viewer. Fascinating stuff. JJ Abrams is the bomb.com.

Can we talk about one of THE MOST PATHETIC CHARACTERS known to the silver screen? I say, I DARE ANY OF YOU to come up with a television character MORE PATHETIC than John Locke. He is so dang darling, and had so many of his desires were squashed from being mislead. Let’s break this down.

-Given up for adoption
-Found his birth father and thought they were reunited, only to be tricked into donating his kidney to daddy-then to be once again deserted by his family—so HAS 1 KIDNEY—we all know quality of life depletes once you are minus a kidney.
-Finds love, only to lose her-because of his obsession with his dad.
-John’s dad pushes him out a 10 story window, to then become paralyzed.
-Suffers from pre-mature balding
-Had dreams of going on a walk-along, only to be denied ‘cause he was paralyzed, and couldn’t ‘walk along.’
-Dramatically crashes on an island.
-Disliked by a great deal of the Island Members
-Told he was special by lots of people on the island, only to die, then be taken over by dark smog.
-Dies alone

Beat that poor guy, and my hat will be off to you! I heart John Locke-and James Sawyer too.
