Locke is frankly the character who got me into the show early on (Walkabout was really the ep that made me want to keep watching), and for the first several seasons his episodes were among the best.

He was pathetic and gullible, which led to him being manipulative and self-sabotaging, as he tried to convince himself he was more so many times but repeatedly failed. It was certainly frustrating and had me almost yelling at my TV at times, but frankly that was more interesting to watch than 90 percent of the characters on the show.

Of course, in later seasons Locke had a lot less to offer, and Desmond was around as the best character in the show, so he moved further down my list. But the idea that he was never interesting to watch is something I find it very hard to understand.
