Terry O'Quinn, AKA Crazy-Ass Locke from Lost, on his biggest disagreement so far with the writers:

At the end of Season 3 Locke throws a knife into Naomi's back and I said, 'This really hurts me, it's so not typical and it's so out of character and it seemed gratuitous.' I made the biggest stink I ever made with (executive producers) Damon Lindelhof and Carlton Cuse and they said, 'Look, Locke believes he was doing the right thing. His life was saved, he's been told, he's been instructed. He believes that this is the most dangerous person in the world right now and he does what he does. Do it.' I said, 'Well, you know, if I stab her in the back couldn't I at least shoot Jack in the knee or something?'

Sounds good to me! Knee, forehead, whatever.

I like Bad boy Locke better than Mr. "Do They Really Think I Know What I'm Doing"? Locke.

And it looks like he got over his fears of hurting folks when he gave Miles the grenade sandwich.

Bon appetit!
