Lost in Lost – What’s the deal with Abaddon?
With all my recent watching of The Wire, I’ve had Lance Reddick on the brain. These days he’s busy playing Broyles on Fringe, but last season he was one of Lost’s most intriguing new faces: Matthew Abaddon.
He wasn’t a featured player, but I think any Lost fan will remember Abaddon as the man behind the science team on the freighter. That wasn’t the only thing he was doing in season four, though. We also saw him take a very creepy visit to Hurley in the mental institution where he claimed to be a lawyer from Oceanic Airlines. The final appearance by Abaddon was in one of Locke’s flashbacks, where he was an orderly during Locke’s rehab after his broken back and paralyzation. After all these appearances, though, Abaddon remains a complete and utter mystery. Let’s discuss.
Lost in Lost – Where, oh where, is Claire?
I’ve never been a huge fan of the Claire character on Lost. I’ve always found her slightly annoying, mostly due to her propensity to walk up and down the beach yelling “Chah-leee!” at the top of her lungs. It drove me nuts.
When her rocker boyfriend sacrificed himself to get his fellow castaways saved I found myself a lot more sympathetic to the island’s blonde mommy. Besides being far less annoying, she’s been given a big juicy mythological plot. She’s not just being pregnant, whining at Charlie, and getting kidnapped. Instead she seems to have up and disappeared. This all leads to one big question – what the hell is Claire’s deal these days?
