I think Kate has become the heart of the island in some way. I don't know if that is because
she is healed, or because she feels so confused or tormented, that it's easier for her to care
for others than herself.
- Evangeline Lilly



Okay so the title pretty much sums this up

she's a wonderful character i think evi plays her so well and you never quite figure out what she's going to do next. She's so complex and beautiful i think this quote sums her up brilliant x

Sawyer: I've been with girls like you
Kate: Not girls exactly like me.

She's so unique and fabulous! This thread is long overdue great idea tho Debbie!

Why did people hate Kate so much after season 1? Was it b/c she couldn't decide between Jack and Sawyer? LOL b/c who can blame her on that one?

I think it was Nikki, but im not sure I've never really hated her, I disliked her in season 5 because of the Aaron stuff but I've never hated her ;P But I do recall a lot of Kate Haters coming up in season 2 and onwards ;P

Okay So I’m going to start by listening a few reasons why people claim to dislike/hate Kate:



Because she brings out the worst in the other characters when she's around.

She's dirty and sweaty and not in a good way.

Because she run around in the jungle and stalks people.

Because she adds nothing to the storylines.

Because she pretends to be a tough woman but cries about a toy plane.


Because when they found Charlie in the jungle. She just stood there and cried.


Because somehow she keeps falling on top of Sawyer.


Because the woman spends her days staring off into the ocean, brooding, playing head games

Because she's not a realistic character. How can we relate?

Because she’s steals babies.

OKAY SOOOO


Because she brings out the worst in the other characters when she's around.

errr

YEAH CUZ THAT'S JUST NOT ADOREABLE.

----------



She's dirty and sweaty and not in a good way.

Having bad personal hygiene while stranded on a deserted island is just unforgivable. NEXT…


------------


Because she run around in the jungle and stalks people.

Actually, if I remember correctly, Sawyer folowed her around the jungle in WTCMB. SAWYER YOU BIG A-HOLE…WE HATE YOU!


-----------------

Because she adds nothing to the storylines.
LOL. No….just…..just no.


------------


Because she pretends to be a tough woman but cries about a toy plane.


Kate acts tough and cries over a oy plane that belonged to a man who she loved who is dead. BITCH.

Sawyer acts tough and cries over a piece of paper that’s related to people he loves that died. BEST GUY EVAAA.


---------------

Because when they found Charlie in the jungle. She just stood there and cried.

Dunno if you guys knew this, but it was actually smokey who cut him down. He just made himself look like kate. YA RLY.

And I mean she should have been the one trying to revive him, who needs doctors?

-------------

Because somehow she keeps falling on top of Sawyer.


Yeah she does doesn’t she? Yummmm

------------

Because the woman spends her days staring off into the ocean,brooding, playing head games

John Locke…COME ON DOWNNNNN

--------------

Because she's not a realistic character. How can we relate?


Richard Alpert…..COME ON DOWNNNNN

----------------

She Steals babies

Yeah, cause you’d just leave the baby behind on an island. It’s self. That’s the most natural reaction.

-------------

im big on the island, and destiny/fate storylines so one of my problems with kate was that she, imo, had no connection to the island, she just saw it as a prison. i dont like that in characters. the growing hate began i think when jack told her to stay behind in s2 and she went anyway, and ended up literally ruining everything with trying to get michael back.

i liked kates attitude of not wanting to stay behind originally, cause why should the guys do all the exlporing and have all the fun..but then as time went on it was just like, ok enough is enough when it became sabotage. so those were my two main problems..

and it had a bit to do with formerally being for skate and with sawyer as one of my favs, i hated how she ws treating him. so those were my former reasons

Ooo I love Kate! She's never been my favorite character and I do remember being annoyed at her from time to time, when she couldn't make up her mind about Sawyer and Jack. But mostly I just always liked her character. She's so interesting and mysterious. You never know what she'll do. But at the same time she can also be so caring and sweet. I loved the new side of her we've seen in season 4/5 with her being a mother.
Ooo and for some reason I also think Kate is one of the most fun characters to vid. She was the first person I made a character study of. I don't actually know why I find it so fun to vid her. She's just so hard to figure out, and because of that, you have so many ways to interpretation her actions.

People are already hating on Kate this season so I felt the need to come in here and spread the love!
What can we love about Kate so far this season? Well, she went back for Claire on the island and the Flash Sideways and cares enough about Sawyer to follow him around to make sure he is okay even though he clearly doesn't want her there. Why is that so bad?...Her heart is in the right place. Now everyone go buy this shirt




And then chillax with some wine and chocolate oh and of course strawberries.

Kate hate is definitely a-ragin' and it makes me sad. People are so quick to assign bad motives to everything she does, she doesn't even get the benefit of the doubt a lot of times.

I definitely think her heart is in the right place! ♥!

Spoiler for 6x03 "What Kate Does"

Spoiler:

I loved that surprised little look flash-sideways!Kate had when she looked down at her hand holding Claire's, like she didn't even know she had kindness and compassion still in her. And, after all, she could've just stolen her money and dumped Claire's bags but she felt bad about what she'd done to her and did go back to try to make up for it a little bit.

And onIsland!Kate trying to comfort Sawyer after Juliet's death... How was that bad of her? Even if you don't believe she ever loved Sawyer, I don't think it's too much of a stretch to say she cares about him. If she was truly the heartless witch so many people think she is, she wouldn't care that he was obviously hurting.



Kate is a flawed character but that's what makes her interesting, it's watching her struggle to overcome her own flaws and somehow do the right thing is a lot more interesting than if she just stood around being perfect all the time.

So, Kate, even if I don't love everything that you've ever done *blames the writers* I still ♥ you! ♥!

Yay! Thanks Ais! And yes Kate is flawed but aren't we all?

Oh and yes I loved that moment that you mentioned in the spoiler tag.
