5. Hugo "Hurley" Reyes



Hurley <3333. Before I address Hugoddess, I need to address the extreme hate he gets first. Hurley hate is reminiscent of Cirie hate, in that people hate Hurley fans more than Hurley (just like people hate Cirietards more than Cirie). I just don't understand hating Hurley. Sure he's a whiney retard sometimes, but that's part of his lovability <333. He's also the only obese person on primetime television. Representing fraus and Jeff fans everywhere <333.



I didn't really have intense Hurley love at first, since all he ever did was say 'dude' and complain about food for the first few episodes. Then Hurley became relevant and I've loved him ever since. He got the flight manifest from Sawyer <3 and realized that Ethan wasn't with the Survivors so they all went on a witch hunt. Then we get introduced to his SPECTACULAR backstory of craziness, paranoia, and being a millionaire.



Hurley was in Santa Rosa mental hospital a few years before the crash because he thought he caused a deck to collapse which killed a bunch of people (lolface). He was introduced to Leonard who brought up the numbers (4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42) which appear sporadically throughout the series from that point forth. Hurley then delves into craziness with his imaginary friend Dave but he eventually shuts him out.



Hurley then uses the strange numbers to play the lottery and he wins.



Then a series of shit happens to Hurley like his house catching on fire, Mr. Clucks getting hit by a meteor, and his porn collection getting replaced with Power Rangers movies. Hurley thinks the numbers are cursed so he goes to see Sam Tooney in Australia since Sam apparently thinks the same thing.



It turns out Sam committed suicide after he thought his life was cursed. His wife tells Hurley that it's all a part of his subconscious and that "we make our own luck". It's revealed that the numbers were said by Danielle over the broadcast, where Sam heard them, and he told Leonard, who told Hurley. Hurley then gets on the flight back home and crashes.

At the end of Season 1, Hurley finds the numbers engraved on the hatch door which was like OMFG. (Btw, if you haven't done so already, if you type the numbers into Google Maps it shows you where the Island is.)



In Season 2, Hurley continues to be batshit crazy. Jack & Locke deem him worthy of going into the Hatch and he isn't allowed to talk about it, so Charlie turns into a jelescunt and gets mad at him. This makes Hurley emotionally ~unstable~ so he tries to blow the hatch up lmao. Rose catches him and tells him to GTFO.



INTRODUCE LIBBY. Hurlibby <33333.



Hurley realizes he knows Libby from somewhere, and the audience knows that it's from Santa Rosa. They start dating and such, when Hurley takes her out on a picnic.



They realize they need blankets so Libby goes to the Hatch to get some. We all know what happens due to MICHAEL FUCKING DAWSON, but more on that when I get to Libby's write-up <3. Hurley then cries over LIbby's dead body for like 20 minutes which was kind of awkward and painful to watch.



They bury her and Hurley gives probably one of the most emotional lines of the series (taking acting lessons Michael Fox) where he says "I miss you, Libby".



Libby's death makes Hurley think that the numbers are cursed again. In order to try to make his own luck, Hurley fixes up the Dharma van with Sawyer, Charlie, and Jin <333 and it ends up working and they have a blast.



And just a season later, Hurley's BFF Charlie dies.



Lol at that face. Hurley is PISSED OFF so he runs over Price with a van. Lmfao.



In order to respect Charlie's death that the freighter people aren't who they say they are, Hurley defects with Locke and gets about half of the survivors to do so. THANK GOD. Hurley >>>>>>> Jack.

When Hurley gets back on the Island, he kind of becomes irrelevant, however he gets the final flashback of the season finale with Jacob when Jacob tells him he isn't unlucky or crazy. I'm excited to see what Hurley will have to offer in Season 6. He is one of the only characters whose storyline's hasn't gotten old IMO.
