GOD I forgot about fucking. Jack face.

wow they really do start setting up the themes of the whole series at the outset don't they

I'm happy to report that the whole household loves hurley

this show was not meant to be watched in HD

kate would be a really good tabletop character.

the mercy killing scene has given halley EXACTLY who Sawyer is and I'm so glad to see just how effective the storytelling is

both of them are hollering about how much they love Jack and how much of a dipshit he is over the tabula rasa speech

They're both theorizing that Locke was never on the plane and that he's intrinsic to the island because the sound slowly cuts out whenever the camera turns to him

(the real point of the conversation is that the only thing making Locke seem evil is the camera and musical cues, and everything he's actually done is either good or kind of weird)

"he looks like a scared and confused and disappointed father" - @Paradox on Jack face

"or maybe like a dog when you set something down and go like "hey boy go play with this" and the dog is like "what"" -@Paradox

I love that jack was originally going to die in the pilot but then he became so key that his wild facial acting became a fan meme.

I think his barely withheld autistic meltdown faces are very good for the record

lmao sawyer with his bigger flashlight than jack's

"three to four feral hogs" - @Paradox

"we don't have time to sort out everybody's god" damn that is raw, Jack

halley: I wanna know what Mr Locke is doing!

oh my God locke's number adding machine makes the exact typewriter sound that the monster does??? I probably knew that at one point but it got me so hard this time

"why does it keep focusing on his left foot?" God I love halley observing what the show wants us to observe

noooooo we have to pause mid episode

Jack's hands are twice the size of Kate's face

halley is shouting "whomst" every time Jack sees the man in the suit and I love it

GOD I love the locke reveal.

halley thinks (not really) that the man in the suit is from the tail section and they're actually thriving and he just doesn't want to associate with the savages

jack is kinda jacked

"they really love setting up the *worst* situations" - @Paradox

God sawyer is such a FUN creep I love him so much

PARENTING!

oh lol uh oh I get Jack's arc a lot better now.

"I love every face locke makes" - @Paradox

"did Jack's dad steal the water?" - @quiet
"my idiot son doesn't deserve water!" - @Paradox

quiet called sawyer "a weird little freak" and they're right

"he just said all the dad buzzwords"

"I'm not a big believer in magic" locke you fucking liar

(this is a good monologue tho)

"locke is the most acute character in this show. I don't know what I mean by that but he is." - @Paradox being fucking right

"what if the island did the same thing to Jack's dad as it did to locke" :3

"[jack]'s like the camp counselor out here"

new "theory" is that Jack's dad faked his death and at the funeral was going to pop out of the coffin and shouting "I have what it takes!" at jack

"I've got what it takes: alcoholism"
