Lots of debate online over whether John Locke became a wimp in season two of ABC's Lost. My take -- hell yes he did. Well, Terry O'Quinn told TV Guide that he misses the old boar-killing, quick-thinking Locke, and hopes that version of the character comes back next year. He said (with a laugh) that he gets tired of seeing his thin-skinned alter-ego get his heart broken so repeatedly.

I loved that Locke finally got sick of his button-pushing self at the end of last season -- even though the evil gods that write and produce Lost made that his worst decision on the island since sending Boone up to the Nigerian plane wreckage in season one. Is it too late to bring back the real Locke, has the poor guy seen too much?

(Note: the TV Guide Q&A is print-only I guess, (24 Jul 06 pg 24) at least I can't find it online - pointers to it will be appreciated.)
