I gotta give props to a Jin/Sun combo. I voted Jin. To me, their backstories are the most interesting, and they have some great chemistry together. I also am intrigued that he is in the mix trying to survive, help, etc. despite not knowing English. He still talks to the other characters as if they can understand him. I like it.

Locke the most, he is the most mysterious.

Hurley the least, he just doesn't add much, other than a ton of "dudes".

I like the mystery and strength of Kate's character.

Interesting that Jack has no votes but would be considered the main character. He is just too flawed, in my opinion.

Sawyer. Jin is a close second, but that's because Daniel Dae Kim kicks ass in just about every role he's ever played.

Kate is definitely the hottest though.

I generally agree with this, plus add Sawyer for comic relief as well. I can't really say that I have one particular favorite.

Sawyer.

Has the best backstory IMO, and is often the life of the show.

I voted for Kate.

And, Flave, you might want to spoiler that as some people may be watching Seaon 1 on DVD or otherwise haven't seen recent episodes yet but still might want to participate in this thread.

Thanks for the spoiler genius.
I haven't watched last night's show yet, it's still on the DVR.
I thought this thread would be safe.



Anyway...
Claire (when she was still a preggo)
Hurley (for comic relief)
Syaid (in general)

I completely agree with this sentiment. I'll have to go with the stepfather.

Sawyer, just the right amount of attitude and humor.

Mr. Ecko may just be the runner up.

I like Sayid and Mr. Eko in general.

I liked Jack until he pushed the doomsday button.

As for the women, I like M-Rod and Kate.

Mr. Eko is pretty cool, I hope he sticks around. I voted for Locke, though. He's the man. And great backstory.
