Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Lost was an ensemble TV show with many intricate character backstories and dynamics, but there were certain characters whose stories remained unclear for the entirety of the show. The supernatural drama series follows the story of a group of plane crash survivors who find themselves on an island that holds more secrets than they could possibly imagine.

The wildest twists in Lost involved disruptions of the show's internal logic and canon, so the characters were forgotten about are hardly the biggest faults of the show. However, it's indicative of a larger issue with the series. Lost attempted to tackle too many arcs and incorporate a multitude of characters, which ended up decreasing the quality of the central conflicts and protagonists on the show.

5 Claire’s Psychic AKA Richard Malkin Played by Nick Jameson Close Claire is one of the most disappointing characters on the show because of how much promise she had, only for her to get pushed to the sidelines. When the audience first meets Claire, she's nearly nine months pregnant and has been traveling from Australia to the U.S. to bring the child to their adoptive parents.

Eloise Hawking has a tragic story in Lost, experiencing the consequences of an action she didn't understand for most of her life. Time travel comes into play in the later seasons, and several survivors get sent back to when Eloise was a young woman, including her adult son. Of course, Eloise doesn't know who he is, and shoots him, which leads her to have a strained relationship with him when she gives birth to him in the future.

This comes into play for the worse when the Man In Black, the major antagonist of the series starts to appear to Jack as his father. The rules for whom the Man In Black can take the form of are fuzzy throughout the show, and Christian's story is made all the more confusing since his body is never found. The coffin was on the plane when it crashed, and later Jack discovers it in the jungle, but it's empty.

Though Watros makes a few cameos after her character's death, practically nothing is known about her compared to the other main characters. One of the biggest unanswered questions was why she spent time in the same mental health facility that Hurley did before they met on the island. The fact that they were in the same facility comes back in the flash sideways when each character lives out a fantasy version of their life.
