Season 1, Episode 20 (Do No Harm) Review
Damn that was intense. I really didn't think they'd kill off a main character so quickly, however, having watched a lot of TV I think he'll be back. With a "supernatural" type of show, anything can happen. His death really didn't effect me because he was one of the least developed characters, but I did feel very bad for Shannon. Her and Sayid are such a cute couple, and it was devastating that she had to come back from her "date" to find out her step brother died. Still, Boone was a cool guy and he was a part of the team. That's one less character for the others to interact with. Overall, the episode was a bit boring. I didn't care for the flash back scenes with Jack and his wife. Still, I did not expect Boone to die and his loss will be felt as the overall group dynamic will be effected. I actually really liked the contrast between Boone dying and Claire having her baby. I didn't know whether to feel happy or sad, so I didn't really feel anything. I have a feeling that there is a connection between Boone dying right as Claire was having her baby...sort of a "life for a life on the island" thing. I appreciate Sawyer's character development, but I wish he would go back to being a dick, I liked him better that way. Also, I'm liking Jin a lot more now. Just like how his wife feels "free" of him, I think a huge part of him feels free from her as well, he's been opening up and becoming a lot more likable. Overall, it was an ok episode. Really looking forward to Jack going after Locke.
