13 dead total. You forgot about Mikhail which blew himself up with the grenade.

I have an idea…hopefully good…how about a Felicity reunion…with Keri Russell as a Klingon. Thats ok…nice thought. Now how about Amy Jo Johnson for either a Klingon role or a character on the Enterprise. This is if Keri Russell gets the part as a Klingon.

On that note. What a #@$* great finale of LOST! Man what is wrong with people not enjoying the ride.;) Has everything gotten to the point that we want the answers to everything now? Also so what if there are a few mystery moments kicking around. Life is like that. Heck I have had small mysteries in my own life. I am still thinking about the last few episodes of LOST. Where it will go next and such. Great story telling when the show sticks in your mind for awhile.

No scam here just good entertainment. Heck I was never a big Charlie fan and I really felt for him at the end. So hey I can not wait for more. Also loved that the island adventure became Jacks flashback. Also Mikhail I believe he has been killed a few times. That dude just keeps on going!;)

You know it is interesting in the last few years how there are television shows as interesting or more interesting than most films out there. With shows like THE SOPRANOS, THE SHIELD, LOST, BSG, ROME, etc. what a great moment in TV viewing! Makes me feel this new STAR TREK project should just be a television show. Let the story build and the characters grow. I know I go against the grain, but I would love a reboot. Keep much of the core elements, many of the designs but go forward with a story without trying to fit it into what has come before. Just my 2 cents.

Bring on more LOST though!

I’ve never felt so scammed by a television series as I have with Lost.
I’ve read thousands of scripts, and I know that these ‘writers’ don’t have a clue where to take the characters, the only thing they know that they have to fill up 36 episodes of crap and do it as slowly as possible.

The “writers” on Lost should not have jobs as writers. Period. The shows are written so poorly, people will not watch this show in syndication, rather, not as many people will watch this show. this last season has greatly devalued the franchise.

Notice how they sign on to do as few episodes as possible to retian the franchise. The production team clearly has the desire to move on. I would too if my name were on the writing credits.

The amateurish lack of life experience of these people is so obvious it nauseates me. These people do not know what they are doing. Everybody knows that these guys don’t deliver, be it answering the millions of questions that are ignored, or creating drama.

The characters mumble all the time. I like to leave closed captioning on so I don’t have to pay attention to the garbled slow pointless talking, deliberately written to drag out the show and waste our time.

Speaking of which, I will mention the Rimbaldi project in “alias” and the ridiculous badinage that resulted from the completely boring conclusion to that series and those mysteries as well?

Yes maybe I am being harsh, but I had to mute a bunch of Ford ads for two hours to learn very very little in terms of answers.

I thought seaon One was a nice campy romp on the Island.
Season Two got me taking Lost seriously.
Season Three made me realize it’s a scam.
Season Four? Yawn. What else is on?

The series has been a roller-coaster ride literally. I try not to ride them because I feel bad at some point and just want to get off as soon as possible. Suddenly, you hit the thrill of a corner or loop and you are as giddy as a child. LOST does that and makes some people mad because they want a linear story. I love the fact that we never know what is going to happen in the story: new people, characters die and reappear, flash-backs and now flash-forwards. LOST rules. I don’t know if we can have too many more seasons before you become completely LOST but I am in for the ride.

Um, right, so Abrams is barely involved, like I said. He occasionally writes a premiere or finale and can’t even find time to direct an episode, while Lindelof and Cuse make all of the big day to day decisions.

Barely involved.

Lost is the most brillaint episodic television since Star Trek (Original no spinoffs) aired. We are in the best possible hands as far as I’m concerned. I am so jacked up for this!!!! In addition early reports say the new Babylon 5 (which is the third greatest genre show of them all) movie is tremendous and we get that in two months!!!!!! If CBS digital can get back on track with the quality we saw a couple of months ago this promises to be a tremendous summer for us, especially as the rumor mill starts churning at warp speed for the Trek movie!!!!!

1. Star Trek TOS

2. Lost

3. Babylon 5

4. DS9

5. Quatloo or no Quatloo

99999. Voyager

Lost is Lost…I like to leave things up to my imagination, but there is a limit to how many questions one show can have…..the future thing just brings up more questions…the show was great….but its starting to get old….the black smoke is my only concern because it seems to be the key to the island…but like i said LOST is lost the show should be called “?????”

#27 – thank you! If I never hear “jump the shark” again, it will be too soon. It’s become the ultimate crutch for lazy writers. And I remember watching Fonzie make that infamous jump too . . . :-)

That said, I loved the finale last night. I haven’t seen Charlie’s story mentioned yet, but I was all choked up. Excellent job all around, and count me as someone who *didn’t* see the flash-forward coming. I’m wondering if the guy in the casket is Ben — he would clearly have no friends, and Jack would be affected by his death since he was the best chance of re-finding the island. Anyway, they ended the season on a very high note last night.
