    What a great series, but I just watched the season 6 finale, and I want my money back. :eh:

    Yeah it seems like they got all crazy with this cool stuff then ended it back based upon character development. WHY THE HELL WERE JACOB AND SMOKEY THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE? That will continue to drive me nuts...what was their purpose? And, in that, what was the major purpose of the island?

    Are you asking why Jacob and Smokey were on the island?

    Well basically what was the whole point - big picture style. They had their roles, but why? What was the purpose of the island? Did it go over my head? :lol:

    I think the sole purpose of that island was for some TV producers to put some good looking folks on television. ;)

    See now that's what I call writing themselves out of a bind!! Don't get me wrong, I loved Lost and all the characters, but they really eeked themselves out of having to explain anything!

    Because their mother had the misfortune of washing up on the beach while wearing a red dress. :mrgreen:

    I don't think any answer would have satisfied the viewer.

    The problem is, that the series was so long and there were so many little things that I kinda forgot about, then I remembered later, thinking they'd be resolved...but nope, pretty much nothing was explained.

    Yeah same here - I loved it so much when I watched it but the more I reflect on it the more aggravated I get. I'm all for ambivalent endings, but there were just TOO MANY loose ends.

    Now that my buddy's wedding's in the books, I have a lot of free time so I decided last night to start watching this series. Thus far, I've only seen the pilot.

    I also watched the finale when it first aired, so I kind of know some things but not really.

    Once you start watching, you won't want to stop.

    Two episodes last night and another five tonight, I'm on a good pace to finish season one within the week.

    So far it's been a slow build. Nothing has really surprised or shocked me yet. I'm sure something eventually will click for me big-time, but right now the show isn't at the calibre that most people have hyped. But then again that may be the problem; because I'm getting into it so late it has already been hyped beyond belief.

    I do dig the strong character development and I can see myself actually caring for the characters after a few more episodes.
