Favorite Lost Moments

Totally silly post.

I go to the message boards for LOST but never post, and never will. That's what a blog is for. Anyway, one of the topics is always something like "Favorite LOST moments." Here are mine, with this explanation.

Since time travel makes my head hurt, I'm not into the sci-fi end of the show as much as the personal stories, which got me started watching it anyway. The best moments are when the characters get an insight, especially one they had been fighting.

1. When Michael and Sawyer found Bernard in the second season, and he said, "Is Rose with you?" The looks on their faces were amazing. Nobody saw that coming.

2. When Walt gave Shannon his dog, Vincent, and she realized someone could be self-less.

3. When Sawyer realized he had met Jack's father in a bar and let him know.

4. When Jack learned Claire was his sister after all that time.

5. When Miles saw that his mother had not been truthful about his father, and that his father had made them leave their island for their own good. That was symbolic to me of all the children who have hated their fathers without cause because mothers lied about them, lied out of meanness or from rejection or some other reason, and left the children in a no-man's-land.

6. When Sun realized how much Jin loved her, symbolic of all married couples who forget love and get to find it again.

7. When Desmond called Penny on the phone on Christmas.

And of course, there were lots of funny moments, mostly provided by Hurley and Sawyer at the most unexpected times.
