Spoilers ahead, if you haven't seen the Season 3 finale.

So I've stuck with it turning into some kind of SF show. That's OK, I like well-written SF.

But now they're turning it into a regular drama? Am I getting that right? Jack turns into John Carter from ER?

And now they're off the island trying to get back on, after they've spent three years getting 'em off the damn thing....



I fear the writers will fail to produce a compelling show due to their overweening pride.

Patience, Grasshopper. All will be explained by the end of the 2010 (final) season.

My fear is that the writers are too impressed with their own cleverness.

That might be true.

Sometimes I wonder if they even know the plot themselves.

The part of Lost most puzzling to me is, the plane was found, and all the people on the plane were confirmed dead. Others get on the island by dying. Yet, they can freely kill one another, and certain people have access to the regular world. How does it work? Are they in between this world and another dimension? Or is it something else?

I missed the first 45 minutes of the finale. Did Walt have more than the one scene by the ditch? Was that just John hallucinating?

I actually liked how what seemed to be flashbacks of Jack turned out to be flash-forwards.

That one scene with Walt was it for him. I believed all along he and his father would reappear. For one thing, that was not much of a boat they left in, and his Dad was no seaman.

The flash forward took me by surprise. How did they get away, why do they need to go back. How can it be so, if they died in the crash?

For an episode that was supposed to answer everything, we all seem to have a lot of questions!

It seems as though it's all one big hallucination - Jack is imagining what it might be like in the future? Or maybe it's an alternate reality.

As far as I heard they wrote at least the initial season without any idea as to what should come next. In fact, the show almost got cancelled because the plot was so poor. I watched the first season but it quickly turned out to be boring.

I have a theory that the surviving characters will return to the regular world, but with new lives and identities (most would need them), at series end.
