Favorite LOST Scenes, Part One

These scenes are in order they appeared in the show (click to the links to view the scenes on youtube):

1. I Shot A Bear!

- This scene from the pilot episode of the series.  A couple of lines from this scene make me laugh everytime I watch it.  The irony of the scene, besides the polar bear in the jungle, is that the group decides to give the gun to Kate, the person who is actually the fugitive that the U.S. marshal was taking back to the states.

2. Distress Signal

- This scene takes place shortly after the polar bear scene and is the final scene of the pilot episode.  The acting, editing, and suspense in this scene hooked me and made me want to watch more.

3. Walkabout
- This scene is from the fourth episode of season one, "Walkabout."  The episode is a Locke-centric episode that features one of the most memorable ane emotional scenes from the series.  The music in this scene gets to me everytime.  This scene reveals why Locke believes that the island is a place where miracles happen.

4. Sawyer met Jack’s Dad
- I have viewed many other top LOST scene lists from fans, and they never have this scene (from season one, episode 23, "Exodus") on them, but I think that it is great.  Jack is about to leave to get dynamite from deep in the jungle, and Sawyer is about to leave the island on a raft in search of help.  It is presumably the last time the two rivals will see each other, and Sawyer decides to share an encounter he had in the past.  Sawyer met Jack's dad in Australia before he died.  Jack went to Sydney to get his father's body, and he and Sawyer, strangers at the time, were flying back to the states on the same plane.  The acting in this scene is great.

5. Exodus Ending
- This scene, also from the episode titled "Exodus," is the very last scene of season one.  Looking back at the characters originally getting to the plane is a poignant moment for fans of the series.  The final moment of the scene, after the castaways use dynamite to blow open a hatch they found in the ground, left fans of the series, including me, in suspense for five long months before season two premiered as to what was down in that hatch.

6. I'm Sorry 
- This scene from the season two episode, "Two for the Road" shocked fans of the series.  Micheal's decision to kill in order to get his son back changed many fans' opinions of him.
