Desmond David Hume was a Scotsman who spent years on the Island. He had a number of unusual experiences there with electromagnetism, sending his mind repeatedly through time.
Henry Ian Cusick is a British actor who portrayed Desmond Hume, beginning in the second season.
You are right i thought Henry was australian.

Oh my god you guys. He's not talking about Desmond, he's talking about Richard! The episode is "Ab Aeterno". Fucking AMAZING episode. It's the story of how Richard ended up on the island, and it shows the smoke monster, and how that old wooden ship ended up on the island where they got the dynamite.
Honestly man, to me, LOST is one of the best three shows I've ever seen in my life. It's just fucking insane. It's not perfect, it has some garbage episodes in the back end of season and a lot of season 3. They started kind of stretching the plot out. But once they had the writer's strike, they really got things on track and pounded out a "tight" story. A lot of people did not like the ending, because the show sets up all kinds of questions and mysteries about the island. It was an impossible show to just give answers and make everyone happy. They did give some answers though, and tied up a lot of stuff. The ending satisfied me and I absolutely loved it.
I found the entire show to be deeply moving and honestly depressing towards the end. It's a lot about letting go and moving on. The show keeps giving the cast what they want then taking it away. A lot of them suffer a lot and get the shit (emotional and physical) kicked out of them. The end scene they linked above depresses the hell out of me. Anyway! It's a great fucking show. If you can find the time, it's ABSOLUTELY worth a watch. "DONT PRESS THE BUTTON!"

I honestly loved it. Everyone suspected they were in purgatory, and the writers came out and explicitly stated that they were not in purgatory. What happened on the island was real... And then they introduced the flash-sideways, and people couldn't figure out what was going, because the writers specifically said not purgatory (for the main storyline).

I watched this show from start to finish the year the final season aired. And I never read the thread here. The show is pure trash, don't bother. I can confirm there was no jading of the viewer in me from FoH. This show is just one of the worst of all time based on the promise and intrigue it instilled in the early seasons. GoT has nothing on this piece of Americana Travesty Trash.

I still think it had a decent first half of the first season and a decent final season. And man, they were wildly different things. They could have been two different shows. The middle seasons were lackluster -- just typical night time network except set on an island. It's not that they were bad, it's that they were mediocre. They relied so heavily on the gimmick of the mystery.
The theorycrafting about what was written was better than what was written. That's just what lost was, even the writers admitted it. That's fine even, no shame in that. But it becomes more of a cultural event at that point than a story that you'd like to rewatch.
GoT was stronger for longer, yeah. At least GoT only crapped out when the source material crapped out. GoT s2 is a good, tight season. Entertaining and there's a real story in it.

Hate it or love it... it’s one of the most influential, talked about shows in the history of television. I personally loved it.

Bro! I bet everyone in this thread can remember when they saw that episode. The whole episode was off, he's talking about his dad being dead, but he's not supposed to be dead in flashbacks! Then they show this car pull up... Kate gets out? What the fuck? Did they know each other before hand? We have to go back?? WHAT? GO BACK?!? Fucking flash forward!
