No

Yes. Not a super yes, but enough to not have to say "close to neutral." He does his job in the story and does it well, but there's a reason we've done eight characters from this show before we've done the protagonist. Most of the rest of the main cast outshines him.

---

Yes

---

No

---

No, I at least like his flashback episodes well enough. It's just hard to say that I actually like him.

---

Overall, no.

But S6 no fucks Jack is pretty damn great.

---

No

---

Yes

---

Can I hate him so much but also answer yes?

Yes

---

No

---

Yes. Season 6 put in some real work to make that happen.

Also on rewatch it's easier to like him earlier knowing that John's just a giant loser.

No, I find him both bland and annoyingly self-righteous.

---

Yes because he fought the final boss with his fists in the rain.

yes, for the memes

Bump

Not really, though my memory of LOST is fragments at this point.

Last(?) Bump

Then he got better

Still no

@ChainLTTP can you clarify your vote please?

---

Yes, but prior to the S3 finale it would have been a hard no.
