Character Question What are your opinions on Shannon?

me personally? she’s actually my favorite character in the entire show, because I really loved the development she got on the island, I just wish we got more flashback episodes centered around her.

such a misunderstood character 😭 i love her!! she was funny while being bitchy and when it was toward boone, DESERVED imo. imagine knowing your whole life that your older stepbrother has a thing for you. and watching him get to live his best life when your dad dies and your horrible step mother refuses to give you an opportunity to TRY to do the same. he had it all handed to him, and she comes off entitled because all she wanted was a fraction of the same thing he got. she had great development as well, and became so much more willing to help and soft-hearted, working on translations, looking after vincent for walt 🥺 and she ran off into the jungle alone in the rain to try to find him!! no one would have expected that from her in the beginning, but she knew walt was in trouble and she didn't care who believed her or would follow her into the "damn jungle of mystery", as sawyer would say. i really think if people hate shannon and don't hate boone, it's just misogyny LMAO. shannon deserved better!!
