 The end of a classic September 6, 2010

So, I am not the biggest fan of how the show ended. It was a little too emotional, or spiritual, or cliche, or something along those lines. I would have preferred they prevented the accident and in another life they lived their lives, became friends through other means, and lived normal lives. Up until the finale, the show could have gone any number of directions. The season still deserves all 5 stars in my opinion. Other than the finale, the season was still amazing and I would recommend it to anybody. Season 6 had some of the best episodes of the series and is a must have for any Lost fan, especially those with the previous 5 seasons. And for those of you who may be curious, the packaging is similar in style to season 5, not the first 4 seasons unfortunately.

I for one loved the final season of the show. I watched the first season snd part of the second season, when they first aired, thinking they were so-so. Years went by and I watched the second season finale at a friends place on dvd. This was my turning point. Season 3 brought Juliet and it's been a roller coaster ride ever since. I also love the fact that all the island's mysteries were not explained. Why would I go back and watch all the episodes if I I already know everything. The island was it's own complex character. It's a shame that many Lost Fans fall into the generic category of wanting all the answer's. Heaven forbid that they think or not have everything handed to them on a silver platter, wrapped in a bow. In conclusion, the last episode was beautiful. I felt my own closure with the show and the series, and can't think of any other way I would have wanted the show to end. Great series that will be terribly missed.

When Lost finally wrapped up its final season back in May, the realizatiion of just what the show's creators had managed to accomplish was not immediately apparent. Lost did not provide a mythology heavy, "aha, so that's what it all means" resolution that pulled all of the mysteries and plot threads from the prior seasons together in a way that suddenly made everything crystal clear. No, what this series had accomplished was something much more remarkable. When the show's title flashed on that solid black background for the final time, the series had come full circle; bringing the audience back to where this amazing journey had started. Lost's creative team had managed to construct a self-contained story arc that spanned 6 seasons, tackled huge themes, built a complex mythology, provided some of the most memorable and complex characters in the history of the medium and incorporated elements of science fiction and fantasy. They also did something even more daring and incredible. They risked critical and fan backlash by ending the series with a finale that appeared to be far too simple for the labrynth of mysteries leading up to it and refused to provide clear cut and easily identifiable answers to those mysteries. Say what you will about the final season of Lost, (and many have) but the writer's ended things on their terms. By doing so, they created something rarely seen on television: an ambitous work of art that is built to stand the test of time.
For those who haven't seen the final season, I won't provide any spoliers regarding the plot. Things pick up following the detonation of the hydrogen bomb by Juliet at the end of Season 5. The purpose of this act was to change the past and make it so that Oceanic 815 never crashed on the island and all of the suffering and loss experienced by the survivors could have been avoided. Right off the bat it appears that the detonation was successful. We are taken aboard flight 815 in the opening scenes of the first episode, "LA X" where it appears that the Losties are en route from Sydney to Los Angeles just as they were at the beginning of the series and none of them seem to know each other or have any knowledge of the events that occured prior to the explosion. But there are some noticable differences. Jack has a scar on his neck, Charlie has short hair, Desmond is on the plane and we learn that Hurley considers himself the luckiest guy in the world. What exactly is going on here? Before we can even begin to theorize on that, the action shifts to the island where it turns out the bomb didn't work. Instead, the explosion has propelled Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Hurley, Sayid, Jin and Juliet from 1977 to the present where they must confront John Locke, or whoever has taken his form, who is recruiting people in an effort to leave the island once and for all.
Season 6 jumps back and forth between these two realities (the scenario in which 815 never crashed is referred to as the flash-sideways) as it moves toward the end. On the island some of the shows key mysteries are answered. We learn what the numbers mean, why the Losties were brought to the island, the true nature of the island, what the smoke monster is, how Richard Alpert ended up on the island and why he never ages and who the skeletons in the cave from Season 1 are. All the while, our heroes must decide whether they will join Locke in his attempt to leave or if they will take a leap of faith and stand against him. Meanwhile, in the flash sideways, we watch as 815 lands safely in Los Angeles and the characters begin to go their separate ways only to find themselves crossing paths with each other again.
I think it's fair to say that this is the most complex and challenging season of Lost. The pacing is considerably slower than in prior seasoons and the epidoses are much more devoted to character development and thematic elements than with the mythology and mysteries. The result can feel like a season that is disconnected from the prior five, but the ties to the rest of the series are there. Season 6 explores the larger themes of fate vs. free will, science vs. faith, destiny, redemption, relligion and love that have always been at the forefront of the series. The flash sideways in particular is rich with these themes as well as the recurring motiff of mirrors. This is important since the characters do a lot of reflecting on their pasts and their flaws. Events in the flash sideways also mirror those on the island while the season itself mirrors Season 1 in terms of the focus on character and theme.
As for the finale, it is a work of sheer beauty and genius. It is deeply moving and satisfying; tragic yet hopeful, happy yet sad and most importantly, it provides an ending as well as a beginning. This is not only the case for the characters, but for the viewers as well since the show encourages us to go back to the start and take the journey all over again because as much as we think we know about the island, the characters and the mysteries, there is still more to be learned. There will always be more to learn and Lost will always exist for current fans as well as future generations who want to take the journey. In the end, that's what Lost was always about: understanding that the answers are not always easily obtainable and that you have to work for them. And your answers may not be the same as the next person's. That's quite an accomplishment for any work of art, and Lost was without question a work of art. John Locke said it best: "We're going to need to watch that again."

Everyone has their opinions. That is a simple fact. But here's mine: I loved the end of the show. LOST has always been one of my favorite shows due to the strong characters, creative story lines, and the deep mythology. I always found it enjoyable to think about solutions to the mysteries and what the show actually meant. So, going into season 6, I was excited to see if any of my predictions came true. Although not all of my questions were answered, I was deeply impressed with the CHARACTERS' stories within the show. Some of these episodes were so beautifully written, it amazed me how characters on a TV show could make me feel so emotional. Thus, I was extremely pleased with "The End", as it resolved the characters' stories. No matter what way you look at it, the show was about these characters and their adventures. Not all of the mysteries were answered, but I think that is what the point of the ending was: not everything is going to be given out to you in life. Sometimes you have to think about what certain things mean and come to your own conclusions. I'm not going to lie, was I somewhat dissappointed that not all of the mysteries were answered? I was. Did the season pan out like I had anticipated? No. However, I still respect the jobs that the writers did, and I especially commend the "final reveal" of the show. To me, it was not a cop out; instead, I felt that it really touched upon what LOST was all about: the characters. Overall, I highly reccomend the Sixth Season, as it is a fitting end to a truly great series.
RIP LOST May 27, 2010

I can't believe its over :( Im not going to go into specifics of my interpretation of the show or why I liked or disliked the ending..I could ramble on all day about that, but for those who complain about all the answers not being revealed, I think we forget why we loved this show in the first place. So many of us stuck with this show for 6 years from day one, and will always hold a special place in our hearts ... It would have been impossible to end something like that with everyone satisfied. It may be "over" but I know at least for me, I'll be thinking about this show for a lifetime.
