I just finished a 10 year anniversary rewatch of the series and have some newfound feelings. No sense in just talking to myself though.

Does anyone still remember/care about this show?

Yes. I would probably fill in the blanks on my own list as you go along, if that's okay with you.

I just watched it for the first time this past summer, so I'm a pair of fresh eyes for ya.

Excellent, please do.

I really despise the final season/ending, so I'm looking forward to fans telling me why I'm wrong. I very much hate-love the show so I think my opinions are a little controversial.

What about characters like Jack, where they are terrible for five seasons but then become amazing when they stop giving a shit?

S6 Jack may be top ten but normal Jack may be bottom ten

Not liking the final season isn't controversial, LOST is the go-to example of a show that fell apart at the end (at least until GOT fell apart even harder at the end and took the throne (pun intended))

So how are you going to determine which characters are included? Ranking just the main cast would leave out a ton of significant characters who never got credited as such, while including people like Nikki, Paulo and Boone who actually got credited with the main cast despite only being in a few episodes. But then it's like, where do you draw the line? Just let me know which characters are included before you start so I can organize my list accordingly.

I wouldn't be against the main and supporting characters pages on Lostpedia being used:

Seems fine to me, although a few of those supporting characters are pretty obscure and I don't remember anything about them.

IMO there's a pretty objective bottom two, even though I don't necessarily expect them to be the bottom two on every personal list.

I feel like we could cut the list off at Mikhail, but that's just me. (maybe squeeze in Frogurt though)

I'm going to start the topic with a list to solicit feedback. Right now I'm thinking everyone with a flashback/forward/sideways plus a few select extras who are absolutely worthy of including (Libby, Frank, et al). Only characters who are present in the main story events too, perhaps.

Technically Frank has a flashback!

That Main Character page seems to cover everyone worth ranking. And even a few of them are nobodies. Like who the hell is Ilana or Eloise. Supporting page has a couple memorable ones like Danielle, Tom, Keamy, Arzt, and Ethan. But it's nobodies for the most part.

Ilana has a flashback. Eloise is borderline imo. But I'll see what The People say.

IMO cut the supporting list off at Keamy, but swap Cindy out for Jacob.

Or just cut it off at Jacob.

Cindy is absolutely not rankable. Keamy is borderline and Jacob has a flashback episode.

Cindy is, for some reason, listed ahead of both Keamy and Jacob on the support list. But Keamy is rankable IMO because he was the main villain of a season.

It goes by episode count.

And agreed, no Keamy would be super sad

Ranking Spoilers
He's like an easy top 5 for me >_>

I also think Keamy was a great character and would be a shame if he weren't included.

Definitely up for a ranking topic
