Rounding out our month-long countdown of the best moment from Lost’s major characters, as the show begins its final season this Tuesday, we turn our attention to the leader of the pack, Jack. He tried to “fix” things many times, but many times things got complicated. Look back at how he went around it (or otherwise) and how he herded the other survivors to last season’s explosive ending.

Two days left on our best moments countdown, looking back at the defining moments of Lost’s major players. Today, it’s Kate’s turn on the spotlight. Look back at her attempts to run away from her past, how she always seems to run back to it, and how she learned to never leave anybody behind, regardless of the consequences.

On the last three days of our best moments countdown, as Lost’s final season gets closer, we take a look at the Island’s resident con man, Sawyer. There’s his best cons, and then there are his efforts to make up for the damage he’s gone, as well as his many quips, from English phrases to future Christmases.

With less than a week remaining on our look back on the best moments of Lost’s biggest players, we shift the focus to John Locke. Look back at his dealings with the Island, his actions taking off from his beliefs, and his important role in recent events, and the events that have yet to unfold.

We’re entering the final week of our best moments countdown by taking a look at Hurley, the guy constantly pestered (well, not really) by bad luck, dead people and food. Look back at how he dodged imaginary friends, food drops and tensions between the other survivors with his good-hearted nature and the ever-so-Hurley “dude!”

Closing our third week of countdowns of the best moments from Lost’s major players, we look at Sayid. Look back at his struggles with his past actions, seeks redemptions, and picks up a few women to love along the way.

Now, it’s time to look back at Claire’s best moments on the show, as part of our countdown to Lost’s premiere in two weeks. Considered as the heart and soul of the survivors, she’s been through testy relationships, dealings with motherhood, and an gap-filled past, most of which we’ve covered on this list.

There’s two weeks left before Lost’s final season premieres, and a week and a half before we finish our countdown to the best moments from the show’s major characters. Today, it’s Charlie’s turn on the spotlight. Revisit his struggles with drug addiction, finding his place in the world, and keeping his relationship with Claire - perhaps the one thing he held on to the most - going.

Continuing our countdown of the best moments of Lost’s major characters, we turn our attention to Jin and Sun. Look back at how they went past many obstacles in their marriage, their many times apart, and the way they grew together - and separately. Sun did become more badass in later seasons, after all.
