1. There are a lot of characters I don't like that will alienate me with pretty much every single lost fan out there, one way or another: Charlie, Juliet, Ben, & Locke. I'm lumping this with my strong ship dislikes, which include Jack/Juliet, Sawyer/Juliet[!!!so much!], and Claire/Charlie.
2. I feel like not liking the finale is a major unpopular opinion. Even people who didn't like it seemed to find something to like about it. I was really unhappy with it. The island payoff was not actually a payoff and a bit more like charging extra interest on those 6 years I spent watching it (I'll have another six months please -- and I won't even bother to say thank-you.) Plus, the "emotional character ending" in many ways for many of the characters (especially the supporting characters) -- sort of ignored all of the ways in which they'd changed and reverted them back to old versions of themselves -- which for me, was not very satisfying at all. I wasn't down with the religious themes either. However, I will say that those last shots of Jack stumbling through the bamboo forest and lying there on the ground and closing his eyes are some of the most beautiful I've ever seen.
3. I'm not sure whether or not my crack-pairing non-canon ships count as unpopular, so I'll just say that I've been continually (not necessarily continuously, though it comes close!) disappointed by this show since the onset of season two.
