Lost!!!!!

The island stuff actually happened. They did save the world from MiB. I guess Jack had to realize and pass his test? Not sure. The flash sideways was a purgatory, but Kate acted like she's been waiting on him for a while, so I don't get it, did he die AFTER her? Pretty confusing.

Overall I'm not satisfied by the ending at all. I mean, just the last bit. The realization that Jack has died and he's moving on. That's fine. The ending of the scene and Jack dying was definitely poetic.

But, to me the main character of Lost was not Jack or John or Jacob. It was the island itself. The setting was so alive that it was a character, and it's mysteries fueled my curiosity to no end.

I wasn't expecting them to wrap every single thing up. I was just expecting some kind of progression throughout the final two seasons. There wasn't any. And the end of the show basically just ignored everything that made it what it was up to the final season.

And now I feel like I suffered through those two mediocre seasons for nothing. Because let's face it...

if the entire show was of the quality of seasons 5 and 6, it wouldn't have been on TV nearly that long.

Tut tut - I could tell after 4 or 5 episodes in season 2 that the writers didn't have a clue where the story was going. They were just making stuff up so they could get enough episodes in for syndication.

It's a damn shame because the first season was excellent.

I knew as soon as the writers focused on the human connection aspect of the story (in the recap show) that the last episode would suck.

I totally get that part of it, but as Mesmer said, the island was the REAL interesting aspect of Lost for so many, including me. To just ignore that and focus on the emotional aspect of the show was a cop out, plain and simple.

I'm just glad I didn't waste 6 years of my life following this show, since my wife got me hooked after season 3.

One of my many complaints is that the mib just kinda died... He never came back in his spirit form, and it wasn't made into a big deal I would hav e liked to see him make one final attempt in his orginal form.

When Jacob was killed from his human form, he made several apperances after that. And basically mib was thrown off the cliff, and that was it....

I missed the last two seasons, but figured I'd watch the finale because I watched the first four religiously and maybe it would tie things up. Plus, they caught you up to speed (sort of) in the show before the finale.

But I'm still wondering what the hell happened. Was everything on the island just crap? Obviously the flash sideways stuff was. At the end they showed the plane crash with no one walking around. So was this like that book we read in high school where the Civil War guy envisions an entire escape and life just before he gets hanged?
