I just wanted to post my appreciation over this character.

I have just started watching Season 3 on DVD (just finished 3.4) and to me, he is my favourite character from the whole Lost series and one of my favourite TV characters of all time. The writers have done very well in making a character that is well rounded. At the start of Season 1, the revelation he was in a wheelchair was one full of surprise. He appeared rather intriguing at first, but as the seasons have gone on, the flashbacks has helped build him into a character full of depth, where the emotion and feeling towards his character has built up.

His flashbacks have been my absolute favourite. The writers have done well creating all characters, but with John Locke, what they have created for me is a masterstroke. His storyline with his dad is my personal favourite, but the depth that has been added to his character overall, has made me care towards his character, as well as mould him into a person that is realistic and credible too.

Hats off to the writers - John Locke is a character that I find fascinating!

Yeah.. another Locke fan.. most people don't like him but I think he is one of the best in there... his flashbacks (along with Sayid) are some of the best I have seen on LOST.. my absolute fav is his very first one where we find him in a wheelchair. For me that was the :eek::eek: factor that hooked me totally on lost.....

Welcome to the Locke fan club :lol:

I have to say, Im not really a locke fan, well wasnt until series 4.
I mean I have always found him a grea character he has had some of the most shocking :eek: and interesting stroylines and links in the entire show, which is why its took me till the end of series 4 to start really liking him

The main reason I was put off him was that Orange peel thing he did.
When I first watched Lost it was late and dark and on my own and the whole episode freaked me out cos of the French transmission
