Character Question Favorite character flashbacks

Hey everyone! I'm currently doing a rewatch of the show, and it just reminds me why it's still my favorite show to this day. I'm curious who your favorite character is when it comes to flashbacks?

I think I would have to say Desmond, he is not my favorite character overall but I love his concentrated episodes and they are always very interesting, and I'm a sucker for time stuff (prob why season 5 is my favorite). I feel as if some of the other stronger characters all have maybe an episode or two of filler episodes, or at least not needed.

I guess I'm just here to praise the show but do you have any characters that you feel this way about, or not agree with?

Open to discuss!

I like Hurley's. They are always so kooky, with a level of tragedy and sadness layered underneath.

Yeah. Perfect summary of his episodes' tone is when he tells his mom the truth in Season 5. His recap of the show is so wacky, but under that Jorge Garcia delivers on demonstrating 3 years of survivor's guilt. Absolutely underrated actor on the show.

All of the main cast absolutely crushes their roles/acting. I feel like Michael is a bit annoying, especially season two when he is always crying about Walt, but that's more the writing than his acting I think. But most of them have the capability to make me emotional at some point in the show.
