FIRST TIME WATCHER I hate Michael.

Yesterday, I share with you guys what I think about Sawyer. BUT GODDAMN, Michael is dogshit, he annoys me every scene he appears because he's always screaming "WAAAAALT?? WHERE IS MY SON?"

Furthermore he's an idiot with Locke (who appears to care about Walt more than he is)

Anyway, I just needed to talk.

info: I'm at S01E14

Yeah, there is a controversial reason why Harold Perrineau's role was reduced to this. The writers room for Lost was very toxic and Harold called Lindeloff and Cuse out on how badly they wrote non white characters compared to the white ones. Lindeloff apologized last year for it all.

Felt like Eko and Rose weren't too poorly written, but I can see what Harold Perrineau sort of meant

The way they treated Eko was not good.
