Kate and Cassidy talking was an important shift in the story – like Hurley Kate couldn't keep lying about the island. Eddie telling John he was 'amenable for coercion' was heartbreaking – John was being used again. That scene had an effect on me.

Make Your Own Kind of Music.

Dharma van!

Golf tourney.

Not Penny's boat.

Blast door map.

Got milk?

Don't tell me what I can't do.

You changed the rules.

I'm from the future.

You told her?

Oh by the way, Libby says hi.

Oh you're just mad we didn't do a 100 best moments of Studio 60 on the sunset strip. ;)

I apologize for how negative I was with that last post, and I understand that the scene I described may not have had the same impact on you as it did on me.

However, the fact that it's missing from a list of 100 scenes that contains "Young detective Eddie tells Locke that he was chosen to be watched and used because he is 'amenable for coercion'" and "Kate and Cassidy talk" is undeniably insane.

Thanks Jo – well done and as above, thanks for the memories. Yeh! you included scenes from "Every Man for Himself" – one of the best written and produced episode.

I had to speak out though for my big scene in Lost which no-one seems to remember or include in any lists:

Catch 22 – the guys hearing the helicopter and then finding Naomi – my heart was beating SO loudly etc. It was a big moment I thought for Lost. I think we've forgotten that at that stage we'd had to waited SO long for confirmation that the outside world existed and that anyone else could actually reach the island, that Penny was looking for Desmond and still cared for him, that the 815ers may finally be able to take matters into their own hands etc etc.

Oh yes and I'll add a vote for Hurley in the combi – wonderful, wonderful scene. LONG LIVE HURLEY!

I'm actually a little surprised that my favorite moment of any seson to date was not mentioned -> when hurley got the VW started rolling downhill with Charlie and the 8 track comes on – ah, the sheer joy expreassed by Hurley, Charlie, Sawyer, and Jin. The best feel good moment of Lost. But I guess I'm just a sucker for these feel good moments like when Boone fixes Shannon's sunglasses, Sayid tosses Sawyer an orange in S1. I miss these acts of kindness, true friendship scenes that they seemed to have had a lot more of in S1 and S2 – usually in the last scene before springing the cliffhanger on us.

I can't believe they didn't mention when Sawyer revealed to Jack that he met his dad in Syndey…. That was a great moment.

My only additions would be Desmond showering and doing pushups in season 2 and saving Clair in season 3. Those were great scenes!

Oh Matthew, to each their own. That particular scene clearly affected you more than me. As I have stated, this is a list of my favorite scenes…but not necessarily the popular choices or ones that other Lost fans would consider in their top lists.

I appreciate that you took the time to read the list, even if it resulted in less than constructive criticism. You mentioned 'if I made this list'; I would like to suggest that you take this negative energy and create a Lost site of your own to share your opinion and analysis, opening yourself up to feedback in return.

Have a great day, and enjoy the episode tonight!

I think we'll all have disagreements with lists like this. Scenes impact different people in different ways. I think it was a good list of scenes, dispite the fact that I would disagree with a lot of the choices, and a lot of those that were left out. But it's not like this is saying "Here are the 100% best scenes ever, and there's nothing anyone can ever do about it." People are entitled to their own opinions, and I believe that's one of the points of the article.

Good article, J. Now I just want to go back and have a season 1-5 marathon :-D

This list is awful. Absolutely, breathtakingly awful.

If I made this list, half of the scenes would be from Deus Ex Machina/Do No Harm. Boone's death was a story arc that has never been topped in the show, and it seems like it never will be.

Honestly, you include scenes as pointless as Kate and Cassidy talking, but leave out what is easily the most powerful moment in the show's history, and one of the greatest in television history as well: after Boone's fall from the cliff in the plane, Locke kneels on top of the hatch, screaming and crying that he's done everything he wanted, so how could it do this to him?; all of a sudden, a light from inside the hatch turns on, all of this occurring while one of Giacchino's greatest pieces plays.
