"Lost" is a fantastic TV show, and that's putting it mildly. One theme that the writers keep hitting upon, is the danger of keeping to oneself, information that would be best shared with all -- secrets. I love watching Charlie and Claire interacting with each other, their interactions are so beautifully moving most of the time. There's a piece of music that accompanies almost all the scenes where Charlie and Claire interact directly with each other, I call it "Charlie and Claire's Theme", it's at once beautifully melancholic and hopeful. Michael Giacchino, the score composer, outdid himself with that piece, I don't have the words to adequately articulate how deeply that cue moves me.
For me, "Lost", is not only about being lost in terms of physical location, but being lost in life too -- losing your way, as you travel to that place where you can say without doubt, that you're the best person that you can possibly be. I loved the scene in season one, where Sawyer reveals to Jack that he, by sheer happenstance, wound up sitting next to Jack's father in a bar in Australia and then proceeds to share with Jack the contents of their conversation. This was Sawyer's way of bidding farewell to Jack and thanking him, without seeming like a pansy. Matthew Fox's and Josh Holloway's performances in this scene, were I think, outstanding. More so Fox's. My eyes welled up as I watched this scene.
