I have to say, I really would have dug the idea of Sayid/Ana Lucia, if for nothing else than picturing the fits that the actors would have thrown backstage. Naveen really does have the amazing ability to have chemistry with anyone and everyone.
Well. I know I've listed my opinions on how the whole Ana Lucia thing went down, and I've written my defense of her actions in her first ep, but it really was just a cock-up from start to finish. MRod was probably a bad choice of actress from the beginning because she's just so volatile, she blew her first flash-back episode by napping through it (when it could have been her 'Con Man' if she had put even half the effort into her performance that Josh did), then the DUI happened, then ABC threw a fit and bailed on her, forcing the entire mytharc to come to a grinding halt. I really am starting to come around and think that she was going to play a bigger role in the overall arc than being quickly written in just because the actress became available, as we all supposed last season.
Yeah. Cock-up. Especially since this final run-in with the law and the realization that she was losing out on a job in a very highly-rated television show seems to have at long last straightened MRod's act out for her. Go rent 'Girlfight' if you want to see more of her-it was her first major role, before she was typecast into the Tough Latina, and while she's very much the ass-kicker in it, there is a range there.
