What happened on "Lost"?

Posted by admin | 2:12 AM | , | 0 comments »



Well, it's really over. After six years and 121.5 hours of episodes, we finally have closure. Our full analysis will be posted here first thing in the morning, but we wanted to go on record immediately with our gut reaction to tonight's finale and -- to better inform our analysis -- ask you to do the same.

First, our mini-instant analysis:

Jen: "DId you see that?" "Did you feel that?"

Those phrases kept repeating tonight. And I have to say, I saw it. And I felt. What about you?

Liz: I did. I saw it and felt it. I'm still feeling it.

If, as some said, "Lost" was to be judged by its finale then all I can say is Damon and Carlton pulled it off. I've been crying and laughing and basically an emotional basket case for the last 2.5 hours. I could not possibly have asked for anything more. I am in awe.

Jen: Agreed. I know there are some unanswered questions, which we'll talk about in the dueling analysis that will go up in the morning. But here are some things I was happy to see again tonight: Bernard. Rose. Charlie. Shannon. Boone. Juliet. Lots of walkie talkie action. Kate shooting people impulsively. Lapidus. (So not dead.) Vincent. And, of course, two "Star Wars" references within the first 10 minutes of the finale.

Liz: I'm right there with you on all of the above.

But I can't get over the fact that it's over and rather than feeling, well, lost, I feel exhilarated. I expected to be mad, sad or disappointed. I'm not really any of those things. As I just posted to Facebook: It's over. And it was so good. Thank you Damon. Thank you Carlton. Thank you cast for the best six years of TV ever.

Jen: While some people will probably complain that this episode had too much smooching and crying and not enough question-answering, I feel, like you, that it provided exactly what I needed: Satisfying emotional closure.

Liz: But I'm interested in hearing what our Lost-watching community has to say. So maybe, sista, we should move on and let them have the floor?

Jen: Yes, the church floor is now open.

Now it's your turn. Share your thoughts, emotion, criticism, angst, relief, etc. about the end of "Lost"...
