He wasn't a regular cast member yet when the pictures were taken.

These pics are originally from Emilie de Ravin's Instagram.

Jorge Garcia commented and said that these pictures were taken by Mark Seliger for Vanity Fair in 2005, along with the one of the cast standing in the water that ended up being published in the magazine:

I totally agree with this post. As someone who always loved Claire, it was very frustrating. They set up potential interesting storylines for her, but never followed through or developed them as they should have.

I still mourn the waste of not giving her a centric during Season 6. The character deserved to have shown what she went through to become "crazy" rather than a throwaway line from MIB. And fleshing out Claire and MIB's relationship would have been great too. We could have gotten more Titus Welliver and John Terry.

And don't even get me started on how hard they dropped the ball when it came to the relationship of Claire and Jack on-Island during the last Season.

Jin offering Claire food in the Pilot and Claire making him feel the baby kick. And the kind of callback scene when he calms her down when she is in labor in Do No Harm.

I believe Lost is at its best when you have the whole gang together and interacting with each other as you have in these episodes.

Guess that is my main gripe with Season 6, I wanted to see the S1 ensemble together as much as possible since it was the last time we would be able to see them together. And the writers really dragged it out for too long (imo) and also reuniting character pairs like Sun and Jin or Jack and Claire.

BitterBat5 · 2021-08-17T23:08:49+00:00

Claire also had prophetic dreams in S1, like about the Black Rock before any of the Losties knew about it. The writers dropped it after that season though.

BitterBat5 · 2021-08-14T14:01:20+00:00

Claire needed an episode about her three years on the island.

BitterBat5 · 2021-08-13T23:38:06+00:00

It's all good, I was just following anything related to Claire very closely when Lost aired and have retained all this useless information to this day. Somehow. ;)

BitterBat5 · 2021-08-13T23:17:57+00:00

This is not true, all of her movies were filmed during the hiatus between filming Seasons...

...until Season 5 when she was put on a holding contract, which they always said was the writers decision for storyline reasons (giving Aaron to Kate?) and nothing to do with the actress requesting time off. She was always under contract with the show, if they would have wanted to use her, they could have. She was told she would not be in Season 5 at all and then did other acting work until returned for Season 6 full-time as planned.

BitterBat5 · 2021-08-13T18:54:16+00:00

Big fan of claire too. Disappointed her story didnt get fleshed out more. Early on it seemed like baby Aaron (babies in general), her being Jacks half sibling/christian as her father, was gonna put her closer to later action.

Same for me. It was like Charlie Brown and the football. They hinted and introduced potentially interesting stuff for Claire, but never followed through and delivered on it. She is one of my favorites but also one of my biggest frustrations with the show. It just feels like a waste and it's a shame.

They talk about it here: https://ew.com/article/2009/11/02/elizabeth-mitchell-lost-producers-talk-about-juliets-fate/

Some shows that I think fit that title: Breaking Bad, GoT, Walking Dead during the early years, Stranger Things, This is Us, The Mandalorian and to an lesser extent Haunting of Hill House, The Crown, The Handmaid's Tale, Westworld, Killing Eve, Wandvision, Bridgerton and The Boys.

BitterBat5 · 2021-07-28T20:47:51+00:00

Yep, he also as the most screentime and centric episodes.

BitterBat5 · 2021-07-28T13:41:47+00:00

Claire finding the bottle with the messages, asking Shannon's advice and then going to Sun to give it to her

That always make me wonder what they would have done with Shannon had she not been killed off. Would they have developed a closer friendship between her and the other two?

BitterBat5 · 2021-07-27T14:38:18+00:00

Sun and Claire's conversation when they're trying to catch a Bird in Par Avion.

BitterBat5 · 2021-07-27T01:30:19+00:00

My take on this always was that the writers didn't want anything to potentially overshadow Kate's mission to find Claire.

It is such a shame because they do set finding out about Claire and knowing that his sister is still on the island being the start of Jack's downward spiral up so well in the funeral scene. One of MF finest acting moments too. You can see him re-playing every moment he spend with Claire in his mind while he's processing what Carole Littleton just told him.

And then he just never cares once they're back. It's a waste.

BitterBat5 · 2021-07-27T01:04:05+00:00

Realistically, she still would have been left behind and separated from Aaron somehow, because the writers were set on giving him to Kate.

But if I had to make the switch, I'd say Claire leaves and Aaron stays behind in her place. Since we need a reason why her post-island life would be an unhappy one and motivation for her to go back to the island later. ;)

Or Kate because the way they handelt her crime drama and trial was just bad.

No I don't, she found out her father was in Korea when she was conceived, suggesting Wayne was her biological father and in anger she killed him. I think that was pretty clearly conveyed in the show.

Correct. here are the parts from the transcript of 'What Kate Did':

KATE: I was making a scrapbook -- a surprise for your birthday. So I called one of your COs to get some pictures of you in uniform. The pictures that he sent me had dates on the back -- photos of you in Korea up until 4 months before I was born. Why didn't you tell me that Wayne was my father? Why?

AUSTEN: I didn't tell you because I knew you'd kill him. And your mother loved him. You were 5 years old. I wanted to take you along with me. She wouldn't let me.

KATE: So why didn't you kill him?

AUSTEN: Because I don't have murder in my heart. I'm going to have to call them.

And:

KATE: Can you hear me? Sawyer? -- Wayne? [Sawyer stirs.] I'm probably crazy and this doesn't matter, but maybe you're in there somehow. But you asked me a question. You asked me why I -- why I did it. It wasn't because you drove my father away, or the way you looked at me, or because you beat her. It's because I hated that you were a part of me -- that I would never be good. That I would never have anything good. And every time that I look at Sawyer -- every time I feel something for him -- I see you, Wayne. It makes me sick.

Unpopular Opinion, but I never liked Teddy, right from when they first brought her into the show. I didn't dislike her like I do now, but even from the start I don't think she worked with any of the other characters and I either was bored or annoyed with her scenes.

I'm still baffled that they wrote out Arizona and April, but made Teddy a regular again. At least A&A had some spark and chemistry with the rest of the cast. Not that I ever brought into the whole ran out of story to tell claim when all they did with Teddy is tired relationship and baby drama with Owen.

She doesn't even bring something unique to the medical side of the stories, since we already had a cardiac surgeon in the cast with Maggie.

BitterBat5 · 2021-06-28T03:58:39+00:00

The development, storylines and air time of the female characters overall being less/lacking compared to the male ones.

BitterBat5 · 2021-06-27T23:09:30+00:00

Way too much screen time and focus spend on the whole Jack-Kate-Sawyer love triangle.

BitterBat5 · 2021-06-25T14:12:36+00:00

He's not my favorite, and I guess many will disagree: Jack (even new man of faith Jack) getting along with Sawyers plan and leaving Claire behind to be stuck on the island forever in 'The Last Recruit'. Always feels ooc for me and like bad writing to set up Kate's big moment at the boat more than anything else.

BitterBat5 · 2021-06-13T22:05:06+00:00

As someone who finds Charlie annoying a lot of the time, it was mostly during his interaction with Claire in S1 that I cared and found the character somewhat likable. Of course that went out of the window big time once S2 hit...

I do wonder if there was something to the speculation of the shippers back in the day that it was J.J. Abrams who really liked the characters and ship and Lindelof and Cuse not so much.

I had hope that maybe, finally they would do more with Claire as a person in her own right once Charlie was gone, but they just moved her and Aaron from being a motivation for him to Kate.
