Desmond's Bringing Sexy Back

I know the big hotties on the show are Jack and Sawyer...but my personal favorite?



Desmond.



He's special.
Not sure why.
Maybe because he lived on the island for three years?
Maybe because he turned the fail safe key and was in the explosion
(that left him naked and precognitive)?

I want to know more about him.
I'm so glad he and Penny are together again.

Does he have to go back to the island too?
It doesn't seem like he was included in Ben's orders...

Did Desmond lie to Charlie when he said he "saw" Claire get on the helicopter?

Tell me what you love about Des.

I agree; I love Desmond, too. His accent. His undying love for Penny. The way he looked out for Charlie. His accent. Oh, I said that already? I'm a sucker for a man with an accent; just sayin'.

I love Desmond because he seems to literally be "the constant." He is straddling out of control time and real time. His subconscious was split between 2 different times and as far as we know he's the only one who's been able to meld it back together.

I think that Fail Safe key had something to do with it. When he turned it, it sent him back in time. In The Constant he did it again. Now he remembers a memory that didn't used to be there. But I also think he was destined to do it, destined to be there. Destined to have some key role in the survival of--- ? The island? The Losties? The world?

You have to wonder, when they created Desmond's character did they KNOW that he would be so special, so integral or did they just think a season later "Hey, let's do something with this guy" I would love to be a fly on the wall in that writers room.

Dunno. I just love the fact that he calls everyone Brutha. That. is. hot. hot. hot.

When he came out of the hatch pointing the gun at Farraday? Hot.

When he woke up out of the dream? Hot.

The man is just pure hottness. I couldn't care less what role he plays in being special. Just so long as he's included in the storyline. He will be special. Oh yes. He will be. That's just gravy. Know what I'm sayin'?

Okay. Whoever brought up the point about the whispers being the voices of people in other times? Very interesting and definitely food for thought. My concern (and this is just me needing closure for every detail) is that not all my questions are going to be answered. I hope that when I go back and watch all 6 seasons, when all is said and done, every "i" will have a dot and every "t" will have a cross. It all has to fit together. Don't ya'll agree?

I'm stickin' to my theory that Daniel is like Richard. He has the time travel down pat and that's why he doesn't appear to be aging.

This show makes my head hurt and I love it. I'm a glutton for punishment.

Oh, bless you for this post, Rhea.

Des is my favorite, too! I've loved every one of his storylines. (And Henry Ian Cusick is so yummy!)


I don't think Desmond was included in Ben's "all of you" have to go back. I think Ben just meant the O6. But I could be wrong.



Melissa: I am really hoping, once the last episode airs, the producers will do a special one to answer all questions and explain everything!

Rhea said...

Melissa: I do love how this show makes you think and doesn't answer everything.

And, I'm the one who had the brilliant idea about the whispers being the time travelers. Have you ever read the whisper transcripts? Very cool.

I LOVE Desmond too! (I'm new here- BIG Lost fan though!)
His accent is dreamy. (I'm married to a Brit, so I'm partial to British accents:-) I agree, he's very HOT. Love the way he calls them all Brutha...'See ya in anothu life Brutha'

Yes, he lied to Charlie when he told him he 'saw' Claire get on the helicopter. he couldn't let Charlie die thinking Claire wasn't safe.
I don't think he has to go back to the island, but I think he will...

Stephanie said...

Accent hands down. Yum.

I don't get what you mean about Desmond telling Charlie he saw Claire get on the helicopter?

Desmond's alright. It's hard for me to like Penny like I used to ever since she played the bitchy lady on that HBO or was it Showtime Series.

You all are losers! John Locke is the HOT one!

FROGGITY! said...

He's so hawt.

And his episodes are always stellar. I love that he doesn't think that he's going crazy, but that he held onto Penny for all of those years, got the payoff, and now is anxious to help others... that's good stock.
