You missed the big picture... big time.


The ending, while not immediately predictable was obviously rememberable.


And to people focusing on rope lengths... just wow.

I'm not entirely sure he did miss the big picture. Yes, I realize the finale was saying "oh hey, it's about the people, not about the island" but then why for SIX YEARS have they made it all about the island? Yes there was a great storyline about people and their life's journies, and I did appreciate the finale from that aspect, but the show was also about the island and I think they really didn't finish the show's story by leaving out any sort of explanation about the island

I didn't see the finale ... did the professor finally get them off?

THIS.

1-10 I give it a 4.5.

At least we know that Vincent is the grim reaper.

Unfortunately, the big picture isn't what has left me with the most questions. I can follow the story line (Sort of I guess, this is Lost after all) , but I would like several things explained in regards to the island, and some of the occurrences that happened. I feel as though the writers were able to brush things under the rug, that LOTS of fans wanted to have explained.

And lots of people have an inquisitive nature, so when we do focus on "rope lengths", that's our right to do so. No need to be brash. Just as it is your right to focus on the bigger picture.

And I have to agree with Brian, for 6 seasons, the show was about the island as a primary, so when they don't explain anything about the island in the finale, it is probably frustrating to a lot of people. I also think a lot of people want closure, where some people want to draw their own conclusion or interpretation, and that's fine. That's what makes us different from each other. But I am a closure person, so I would like things spelled out for me.

But when it's all said and done, the series was amazing, and truly will be hard to out do.
