The A-Team
The A-Team is a fan term for the Lost characters who most frequently go on expeditions and/or participate in offensive or defensive strikes against the Others. The composition of the A-Team is not fixed, but generally includes:
References in Lost
- There have been examples of some references to The A-Team in the show. For instance, Charlie accused Locke of keeping him out of the loop and called the Black Rock expedition 'swanning off on the bloody A-Mission.' Sawyer also used the term in "Exposé", stating the 'A-Team' (in this case, Kate, Sayid and Locke) took all the guns.
- Sawyer used the phrases "jibba-jabba" and "lets roll" in the episode "Live Together, Die Alone", which were catchphrases of Mr. T on the original The A-Team TV show.
- A parody video on Youtube mixes various Lost scenes with the A-Team intro music, complete with credits, explosions, and B.A. Barracus' gold chain (which happens to be montaged on Hurley).

Redshirts
A Redshirt is a background character in a TV show, generally one whose primary purpose in the narrative is to get killed. The name comes from the original Star Trek series, where security personnel wore red shirts (vs. gold for command crew, blue for scientific, et al). There was usually at least one of them on exploration teams, and one of them would usually die. They have also been referred to as 'Socks' or 'Meat-Filled Socks' by Damon and Carlton on their podcasts.
Trivia
- In the Season 2 Extras DVD feature, "The World According to Sawyer," several of the actors, writers, and producers are interviewed throughout a montage of Sawyer-specialty nicknames.
- Daniel Dae Kim says that, for those who like to find Easter eggs, there is one incidence in which Jin calls Sawyer "Chewie."
- Evangeline Lilly says that Josh Holloway now calls her "Freckles" off-screen, because he found the nickname so appropriate.
