Okay, Lost. Just in case you hadn't noticed, this island is full of boys. Big, talkative, angry, muscled, manipulative, swaggery, headstrong, sensitive, humorous, treacherous boys. Boys everywhere. This island is pretty damn short on women period, let alone strong, capable, intelligent, independent women.
So, thank you ever so much for being brilliant enough to kill Danielle Rousseau, one of very, very few truly badass, formidable female characters left on this show. Great job. Now all I have is Kate, who is certainly badass but full of all those pesky vulnerable issues, Juliet, who is tough but full of secrets and clouded loyalties, and Sun, who only seems to ask worried questions anymore. I won't even talk about Claire and the whole lot of nothing she does these days. What the hell am I supposed to do with them? I could always count on Rousseau to have the substance to do what needed to be done, shoot things, set traps, torture someone, hit Ben in the face, and not whine or cry or get all anxious about it. And now she's dead. And she didn't even go down fighting like the freaking awesome kickass warrior she was.
Nice. Real nice.
