wasted Potential

[dharma 3]

I find it annoying that Danny Pickett was killd of when he was such a good character and even more so that he will probably never be mentiond again like AL and shannon.I cant help but get the feeling that TPTB are killing of characters with potential rather then the crowed pleasers :irked:

IMHO they didn't kill him fast enough. To let Danny stand there with a gun to Sawyer's head for the 13 week hiatus was a joke. Danny was a joke. His wife was a joke. I'd be willing to bet that there were more people who disliked Danny than liked him. He had the same problem Ana-Lucia did. He was a hothead for no apparent reason. I'm just grateful to TPTB that they didn't waste a week of my time with a flashback for him.

rather have jackback No#8 then?or another Charlie "oh no im on drugs what am i going to do?" or even worse another Juliet flashback, a repitition of the whole jackback stuff? Be my guest but id rather have more on Dannys backstory thanks :eyebrow:

Jack's flashbacks bore me because they're useless. S3E9 proved that. Charlie's flashbacks are only fun if he's getting slapped around by groupies who just want his drugs. Juliet's flashback was at least something we hadn't seen before. Besides, because it had Ethan in it, it was at least partially moving the on-island story along.

The only thing I would want to see from a Danny flashback would be what in the world it was that made him so angry at the world and life in general. Beyond that, nadda. There's just nothing there. Not everyone on LOST can be a main character. We have to have our Danny's and Arzt's. We have to have people who are only there for a couple of minutes to fulfill their purpose and move on. What was Danny's purpose? To move Juliet's story line along IMHO. If he hadn't forced her to kill him, then we wouldn't have had any of the on-island story we had in S3E9.

So, that said, Danny did have a purpose. However, he completed that purpose but in doing so, he had to die.

he seemed so much more than a artz-ish plot device

Danny was a zero.

He was introduced urinating. Not a good sign.

Oozing all that talent onto the jungle floor.

better intro then Nikki and paulo :nanabobo:

[Brian]

They were just standing there. However, neither of them was urinating at the time, well, not that we know of. We certainly didn't see it. I'd say the LOST-Ferengi's win this one. :)

If and only if Nikki and Paulo were hiding in that urine soaked brush, then I'l say that Pickett was ok.
