Same here!

Just saw the preview for next week and she is already on my black list!

I don't know she did come off as an arrogant b##$@ but I think that's the point, we might be being lead to believe one thing about her when she may turn into an ally of the losties. I think that her experiences on the island thus far have clashed with the idea in her head as to what they would be like and judging from the flashback she has spent quite a long time building up the island in her mind, look at the smile on her face when she came up from the water it was like, "I've arrived in paradise." And look at what she has experienced so far, she is having trouble dealing with the reality, it's painful to realize she was wrong so she is acting out. Another factor is that I think the freightastic four aren't in the loop regarding the the true nature of the ship's mission. There seem to be different levels of information on the freighter and some have more than others. The team may have been lied to and convinced that they are doing good when they aren't. And yes I think Charlotte is a tad arrogant in the flashback she bribed the Tunisian man to gain access to the dig saying, people in our line don't wait. So she has a sense of entitlement and is used to getting her way, and it doesn't seem like she has been getting her way. So I hope she doesn't get killed I'm waiting to find out if she is good or evil, she seems like she could go either way.

I didn't really like her at first, but the more I've seen of her, the more I don't know what to think. I think her arrogance is her being protective of herself. She landed on the island with three men, Naomi's dead, and she got the worst greeting out of all of the Freighties. I'm not surprised she's a little snooty, Locke was not exactly welcoming her to the group with open arms.

It's a difficult situation, and they're all adapting to it differently. Next week seems to involve Charlotte, so I'll get back to you after we get to see a little bit more of her. So far, I like Daniel, and Daniel likes her (and he seems to be a good person) so she can't be that bad.

In all fairness, and the ultimate irony is that Daniel despite his head injury, mental problems is better at dealing with the losties than Charlotte has been. And Charlotte seems to be manipulating Daniel, he doesn't seem like he has many friends and Charlotte is manipulating his need for friendship. Charlotte always seems to be on the verge of snapping at him, she needs him to complete the mission because of his scientific knowledge.

Touche, I could see where you're getting this from. Although sometimes she doesn't seem that bad to me, honestly. For example, when Daniel was doing the card game with the three cards, she seriously seemed to be trying to help him to me. She also told the Losties about the emergency number (granted, it was after they had been calling for help all day) and called for them. I suppose I need a few more episodes to decide if I like her/don't like her.

I must admit that Charlotte rubbed me the wrong way from the start, but I've warmed up a little to her. Why you ask? She strikes me as a good villian, a type of "She-Ben", that can be used to antagonise Team-Beach while regular Ben antagonises Team-Egg Town. That being said I really wouldn't be that upset if a polar bear got her... and then traveled through space and time to Africa... now that's some good irony.

The scene with the cards was one in which I saw her on the verge of snapping at him, she needs him to complete the mission, that is what she is concerned about. She gave the losties the emergency number, but she knew about the time anomaly and knew they weren't there. Besides the freighties were holding all the cards, Sayid will handle himself if the situation gets violent, but Sayid and Desmond don't know anything about the freighties and Charlotte knows her people are holding all of the cards. As it stands now, Charlotte could make an interesting villain or an interesting hero. I still think that Charlotte knew alot about the island but wasn't prepared for the island.

I dont like her she must die along with LOCKE, maybe they can die together

Even though I dislike her very much, I am waiting to see how her character will evolve over the series' remaining seasons.

I don't want Charlotte to die until we know more about her. She seems like an interesting character who could provide interesting insights about the island. We don't know her background or why she is the way she is.

Also, I hate the fact that almost all women introduced on the island are immediately killed off, and the guys are kind of the center of the island. Right now the only other women regular cast members we have are Kate, Juliet, and Sun (the final one who is drastically underused, in my opinion).

EDIT: What am I thinking? We also have Claire, too...although flashforwards make her fate questionable. She is also underused.

Sorry, super-hot redhead with an English accent? Ummm....
:malelove:

Please, let Kate beat the living tar out of Charlotte for what she did tonight!:chair:

(No one messes with Kate! Capice?!)

I totally loved that Charlotte knocked Kate out tonight. Kate was not only being nosy, but if she was really so suspicious, she wasn't even being careful. Pretty dumb to let someone get behind you that you don't trust. I know Charlotte has an attitude, but I still like her, and I LOVE her with Dan. He was all unsure of himself and what he was doing and she was reassuring. It was sweet. There's a whole nother side to her when she's with him.

(No one messes with Kate! Capice?!)

Yeah, I didn't really care for how she seemed to resolve the female problems by lunging at them. Especially with Kate, there wasn't a reason for it. Kate had every right to be suspicious, and if they were trying to save them, they should have just came out and told her. You'd think if they'd want the Losties to trust them, they'd be a little more open and wouldn't bloody heads. =/

Charlotte's problem seems to me to be that she is arrogant. And I'm sure she believes her people are there to rescue the losties. Like I've said before she seems to have a naive streak.

I never said I didn't like Charlotte, I actually like the character because it seems like there is room for her to grow. And because her namesake C.S. Lewis went from an atheist to a christian I think she'll switch sides and join the losties at some point.

This is the ANTI Charlotte thread, not the pro one!

Besides, I hate her guts for pisto whipping Kate! No excuses or no reason!

So, I can't dislike a character and find them interesting? Don't get so angry, they're doing the Juliet thing with the four freighties, teasing us as if they're good or evil before they confirm what side they're on so the four freighties will do things that piss off the audience until then. I did say Charlotte was arrogant and naive, but the same could be said for Jack as well. Plus, in Charlotte's short time on the island she had been shot and held hostage, I'm not condoning her behavior I'm just saying that is something to keep in mind. Also keep in mind the four freighties might have been lied to about their mission on the island. And remember this is lost none of the characters are what they seem. Remember the days when people thought Sawyer was the biggest SOB on the island.

^^^Apologies, but I find Charlotte as annoying as Miles.

She had potential, but she threw it all out the window when she pistol whipped my favorite character and she had no cause!

It was a :badwords: cheap shot and everyone knows it!

I don't get the animosity towards her. Her intial response to the island was joy and a kid in the candy store that got erased fairly quickly by her getting shot. She has been contiually assaulted and keeps plodding along. I would think that would be laudible.

Just plain annoying to me. I have no use for her, that may change in time. It depends, there were characters like Ana Lucia whom I hated from the minute I saw her and hated her until the moment she died. Then there are characters like Juliet whom I disliked very much in the beginning but now i don't anymore. so who knows what will happen.

I really didn't mind seeing Charlotte knock Kate over the head like that. I may dislike Charlotte, but that was a satisfying scene.

That's been my point. When she first arrived she had this childlike, naive wonder about the island which seemed to make her oblivious to the losties ordeal. Her experiences on the island have shattered her preconceived notions about the island have been wiped away or are being wiped away. At this point she could make an interesting hero or villain.

Oh, I do agree that she may become likeable eventually. If you look at it from her perspective, she has been put through a lot more than Daniel who's had a pretty easy ride out of all of them. So, I can understand why she might decide to hit Kate over the head, but it still bothered me.

I'm hoping she grows a little more eventually as people have said--her character does have room for potential.

Oh, by the way, Adam, don't get so mad. Nobody wants to see their favorite character hit over the head, but try to let people have their opinions. :)

Actually I think that Frank has had it the easiest, Faraday has been held at gun point. Frank hasn't been held hostage or held at gunpoint.

She needs to GROW UP! (Charlotte is on my "not so kind" side right now along with a few other characters).

(Not to be rude, but whenever somebody calls Kate dumb, it offends me!)

Can't say I'd mind if Charlotte bit it....and soon. She wasn't my pick to be most to likely actually die next (see link below), but she's my first choice! I do love her storyline though.

HERE

She is focused on the mission, her mission and nothing else. I don't feel any empathy or human warmth coming from her at all. I hate her.

From the moment she arrived on the island she was held hostage. She's been shot. Then she was traded like a bargaining chip. For someone who only has booksmarts she has done incredibly well in my book. I'm happy that she's still around and I hope she's around for many more episodes to come.

My heart bleeds for her as it did for Isabel. Women of such warmth, compassion and understanding of human nature.

:lol2:

As to being held hostage, being shot at, and used as a bargaining chip...Well...

WELCOME TO THE ISLAND.

She.Has.Got.To.Go. (http://www.pricegrabber.com/search_fullinfo.php/masterid=101024605)

I'm normally not a person who judges characters right from the start but except for Ana-Lucia, no other new character has bugged me nearly as much as Charlotte. I'm more than ready for her to get killed off.

I don't like her either. She's very snotty and has quite an ego. The only new character I like is the ultra quirky Daniel Faraday.

Charlottes introduction was no where near as bad as nikki, but there seems to be a very serious problem with how the writers are handling the women on this show. Sun and claire are so underused they may as well no longer be credited. It just seems every time a new woman is introduced, they immediately need to be acknowledged and congratulated for showing up.

I can put up with charlotte until the end of the series, or if she is killed off next week, it won't bother me in the least. Just another in a long line of wasted female characters. But out the all of the new characters this season, Miles is the one I would like to see killed off first.

I love the vicious, near salivating with venomous viciousness harridan :biggrin: and can't wait to see the monster eat her from the ankles up.

She's comes across like a right bunny boiler - but I adore how her cut-glass accent slips when she looses her temper or composure: "Wot?" - nice! If she's Old Money from the Shires I'm the Queen of bloody Sheba! (I am in fact eloped out of a council housing estate).

Don't mind her sticking around a bit while we explore her past though - she mightn't be at all what she appears... just as long as something eats her in the end. ;)

I agree, her snotty attitude is a turnoff!
But Im curious to find out why Windmore chose her to be there..why is there a need for an anthropologist?
Why is there a need for someone who studies human behavior and cultural relationships?

Also, theres some kind of connection to her and CS Lewis, but Im not sure what it is yet..

I'm not a fan of the frieghters overall but Charlotte is my least favorite.

Nice! Not being English (although I did live there) I didn't immediately pick up on that. It takes a good actress to give one syllable the nuance of "I may have a graduate education from Oxford but when I'm under stress I return unconsciously to my working-class roots."

I love Charlotte, BTW.

I cannot stand her and she needs to be punished for pistol whipping my favorite character!

That was a cheap shot!

Actually, hitting Kate over the head was the only good thing Charlotte has done so far on the show. And this is coming from a Kate fan.

Wrong thread; huh buddy?

Why is this the wrong thread? Besides knocking Kate out, she hasn't done anything worthwhile on the show except for annoying the shit out of me.

Besides knocking Kate out, she hasn't done anything worthwhile on the show except for annoying the crap out of me.

I'll say it again, charlotte took a cheap shot (like tackling the receiver after a whistle is blown in football).

It was uncalled for and completely unncessary, but they had to make Charlotte "the mean girl" right by Juliet.

Don't worry everyone, the losties are gonna use Charlotte to make Daniel start talking at which point they will kill her, well thats my best guess anyway.

After the Bernard morse code scene both Charlotte and Daniel were taken down a notch and shown they weren't the as smart as they thought they were. They haven't realized what Miles did in this episode, that they have as much to fear from their own people as the losties do.

You all need to back off Charlotte, she is a great character.

Very glad she knocked Kate out.

Hey, I think she's a great character, she is smug, arrogant, and thinks she's on top of the situation when she is in way over her head and is realizing that with every episode. She's is interesting because she genuinely believe she's on the side of good when it seems after TSOTTC that her team isn't, and she has as much to fear from Keamy and his men as the losties or the others do, and she doesn't realize it yet. I personally think she'll end up joining up with the losties at some point but right now it's fun watching her be a semi-villain. As with other characters that have been hated, her flashback, if she lives long enough to have one will probably humanize her a bit.

I dont like her, I'd rather her go over any of our remaining female characters. Danielle and Alex are gone. I hope they leave Kate, Sun, Claire and Rose alone for now.

Exactly.

Charlotte needs an attitude adjustment and she needs to know her place!:mad:

I don't think they write the female characters very well, apart from Ana Lucia. But at least Charlotte isn't fawning over the blokes like some of the other female characters. Kate in particular makes me want to vomit, her character is pathetic.

I sort of agree about Kate, the only storyline she seems to have now is bouncing between Jack and Sawyer. I think people overlook Sun, she is in relationship and is strong and indpendent. She's the only one on the beach who is seriously and vocally questioning Jack's decisions. She was right about Charlotte and Daniel from the very beginning. But back to Charlotte, it's hard to tell if she is good or evil, because judging by the reaction of Miles to the attack on the barracks, the science team wasn't told about the intended massacre. But what's interesting about Charlotte is that she is realizing she's over her head. Watch the look on her face when she sees the doctor's body and the look after Daniel is exposed in the morse code scene. It'll be interesting to see how she reacts.

Have to agree here. I guess that's also the reason why all the male characters are far more popular than the females. The only male character whose less popular than the girls is Michael.

I actually think that Charlotte is going to fawn over Daniel next season. They are starting to drop the relationship anvils. I guess they noticed that the character doesn't seem to connect with the audience.

I wouldn't mind Charlotte so much if they would actually do something with her. I know the freighties haven't really been in it that long, but come on already! Frank has done his piloting, Daniel has done some scientific stuff, and Miles has made use of his "ghost powers". What has Charlotte done except lie to our Losties and act like a total SOB? She's supposed to be an anthropologist? Fine, let's see her dig up some of the history of the island. Let her explain the four toed statue. Let her do something other than lie and look all smug about it! I don't know, maybe we'll get something out of her before the end of the season, but I still don't think I'll ever like her.

I also couldn't care less about the whole Charlotte/Daniel thing. I know the writers are more concerned with the characters than the mythology, but do we really need more "love interest" storylines this late in the game?

Charlotte is the Freighter version of Juliet. Of everyone in the Lostie beach camp she is the only one who stands a chance of really standing up to Juliet and exposing her for what she really is-a lying, double dealing, mean, Ben puppet. I have never cared much for Juliet and I don't care much for Charlotte either-they are too much alike. I think there is more to Charlotte though than meets the eye-more than just a recruited multi language anthropologist-I think she is a Hanso family member.

She's creepy in the smirking Juliet type of way...But I must admit I liked the interactions with her and Daniel.


I think they both might be two of the 'innocent' parties that Ben mentioned not killing.

Currently I'm of the thought that if they kill anyone please let it be that Captain.

UGH.

I :heart: you.

I actually meant the jerk that killed Alex not the Captain so much...*can't remember his name*.oops.

My bad.

I'm still sour at Charlotte and always will be.:mad:

I actually meant the jerk that killed Alex not the Captain so much...*can't remember his name*.oops.

My bad.
look what you did, now the captain is dead thanx to you;) I'm starting to warm on Charlotte, it must be the red hair, I'm Irish and for whatever reason red hair drives me wild. I do still think she needs to get whats coming to her, because of the lies being told to the Losties, but maybe not killed.

Charlotte irks me...she always seems like she is up to something!

I just want to slap that look off of her face every time I see her.

I could not stand her at first, but I'm not giving up on her yet. She's starting to grow on me, but it could still go either way depending on the next few episodes. At least I don't hate her as much as I used to. :rolleyes: I certainly don't care much what happens to her.

I still am annoyed when she comes on the screen, but I'm less annoyed than I was when she first came on the show. Hopefully she will tone down her attitude and I will be able to tolerate her better.

It's quite refreshing that Charlotte didn't get to talk that much in recent episodes. Makes her far more tolerable for me. And considering that we only have 6 women left, I hope she makes it into season 5. I would rather have Charlotte, whom I'm not particularly fond of, instead of a show with only 5 female characters left.

Her prissy attitude has me longing for Ana Lucia or Shannon again.

Give her a chance she probably has the most interesting backstory of the freighties now and she hasn't pulled a bitchy face in the whole of the finale :)
