SERIOUS MOMENT ALERT
To whoever follows Lost (I myself have only been watching since the 2nd season premiere), I hope you saw the latest episode, Eko's flashback. Whoever hasn't seen it, I recommend they download it by any means necessary; illegally, legally (1.99 on iTunes), because it was one of the most powerful tv moments I've ever remembered.
Maybe it's because I've followed Adewale's (Eko) career since he first appeared as Kahega in the movie Congo, or most notably, since he played Adebisi on Oz; or maybe it's because as not a very religious man, Psalm 23 is one of the only passages from the Bible that I remember vividly. This episode hit home for me, especially near the end, when he finds his brother, finally. Even though this episode glimpsed at a darker past, Eko was always a good person. I really felt the message of redemption, and sacrifice, and I do NOT usually pick up on these things.
I may be reading too much into this, but this is the last time since the third-to-last episode of Oz (A Day in the Death), that I really emotionally got into anything like this.
Maybe it's the increased dosage on my antidepressants again, but I hope I'm not coming on too strong, it was just a really good episode, and Adewale should definitely get a Golden Globe nod next year.
