 It is what it is September 1, 2010
S. haapala (Canada)
The final season was fantastic and entertaining. There have been some harsh reviews for the final season with some confusion as to what was real and what wasn't. Everything that happened on the island was real. The alternate reality was just a way of reuniting everyone after they had died at some point in their lives and to me it worked well. Still the best TV series ever made.
 The worst season of Lost July 2, 2010

I think Season 1 and 2 are still pretty good, and Season 4 contained my favorite episode, The Constant.
However, Season 6 is so full of contradictions, inconsistencies, dropped plot lines, absurd new characters (like Jacob/MIB's Fake Mom), and ridiculous character resolutions, that it actually made me turned off of watching Lost altogether. I won't go back and watch previous seasons because of it. Want some high-quality resolutions about "the numbers," the ashes, Smokey's background, the cabin, Dharma, Ilana, the statue, whispers, why the island was so important, etc.? You ain't gonna find it here. You may find a few answers, but they're amateurish and comical at best.
The writers like to say that they focused on the characters in Season 6. That seems to be an excuse for dropped the ball on writing on coherent story.
LOST TV SERIES: A WELL OF LIFE LESSONS June 5, 2010

Last Sunday a mix of excitement and sadness came over me as I watched the end of Lost. YES, I'm a "Lostaholic"!!! It was challenging to say goodbye to this fascinating series. Season after season, I fell in love with each character and their personal journey. As the never predictable storyline developed, I made a lot of connections and discovered extraordinary life lessons through the cast dialogues:
1. WE ARE ALL ABLE TO START OVER: - It doesn't matter, Kate, who we were, what we did before this... before the crash. It doesn't really... Three days ago, we all died. We should all be able to start over. (Jack Shephard in Tabula Rasa, 2004)
2. BUILD RESILIENCE THROUGH ADVERSITY: - That's a moth cocoon. It's ironic - butterflies get all the attention, but moths, they spin silk. They're stronger. You see this little hole? This moth's just about to emerge. It's in there right now, struggling. It's digging its way through the thick hide of the cocoon. Now, I could help it - take my knife, gently widen the opening, and the moth would be free - but it would be too weak to survive. Struggle is nature's way of strengthening it. (John Locke in The Moth/2004)
3. CREATE YOUR OWN VICTORIES: - Look, I don't know about you, but things have really sucked for me lately, and I could really use a victory. So let's get one, dude! Let's get this car started. Let's look death in the face and say: "Whatever, man!" (Hugo "Hurley" Reyes in Tricia Tanaka Is Dead/2007)
4. SEIZE THE DAY: - Well, I woke up this morning and thought it's time to stop feeling sorry for myself and seize the day. And I can't think of anyone else I'd rather do some day seizing with than you. So what do you say? (Charlie Pace in Par Avion/2007)
5. HAVE TRUST IN LIFE: - I'm a man of faith. Do you really think all this... is an accident? That we, a group of strangers survived, many of us with just superficial injuries? Do you think we crashed on this place by coincidence, especially this place? We were brought here for a purpose, for a reason, all of us. Each one of us was brought here for a reason. (John Locke in Exodus/2005)
6. LOVE CONQUERS ALL: - I love you Sun. I'll never leave you again. (Jin in The Candidate/2010)
7. LEARN TO LET GO: - I'm real. You're real. Everything that's happened to you is real. All those people in the church, they're all real too. Everyone dies sometime, kiddo. Some of them before you, some... long after you. There is no "now", here. This is a place that you all made together so that you could find one another. The most important part of your life was the time that you spent with these people. That's why all of you are here. Nobody does it alone, Jack. You needed all of them, and they needed you. To remember. And to... let go. (Christian Shephard in The End/2010)
I believe the show didn't end, it's happening right here and right now. Many of us are still living in that "lost island". Waiting to be rescued. Waiting to be loved. Waiting to be free. Letting "the others" control our happiness. Look around and you will see...
The island's choice May 24, 2010

When we last saw the "Lost" gang, they had set off a nuclear bomb so the timeline would be reset. Well, obviously things don't go so smoothly, or the series would have ended LAST season.
And it serves as the springboard for "Lost: The Complete Sixth And Final Season," which serves as a brilliantly brain-twisting finale for this unspeakably weird series. JJ Abrams doesn't quite manage to wrap up all the countless plot threads he's introduced, but he does manage to provide a semi-satisfying finale for the vast "Lost" saga and its many characters.
In the aftermath of the nuclear bomb, the survivors find themselves being taken captive by a mysterious man (Hiroyuki Sanada) at an ancient temple. At the same time, the Man in Black begins seducing people over to his side, while Jacob's ghost works to get a replacement for his position on the island. And Charles Widmore has finally arrived on the island for reasons of his own, dragging a reluctant Desmond with him.
In another timeline (one where the island is underwater and nobody ever went there), the plane lands safely in L.A. But the fates of the people who were on that flight are still drawn together inexorably -- even though their pasts have been radically different. The history and secrets of the island are revealed, as well as why the people aboard Flight 815 were drawn into the island. And for the evil Man in Black to be stopped, one of the survivors will have to do something unbelievable.
"Lost" has never been like other network TV shows, but the final season goes all out on the strange stuff -- we've got flashbacks to centuries (even millennia!) ago, two separate timelines, a large number of deaths, and the revelation that basically the entire series has been a yin-yang battle between light and darkness. The biggest problem: Not all the plot threads are neatly tied off, and not all questions are answered (why are the numbers BAD?).
And the finale is a rather mixed bag -- it's not entirely satisfying, but things end on a haunting, philosophical note. Disappointing as a sci-fi story, but very powerful as a personal story.
And the writers spare no emotion, wrenching out some truly powerful moments that mingle tragedy and pure beauty, such as the heartwrenching "Ab Aeterno" (in which we find out about Richard's past) or the painfully sad finale of "The Candidate." And hanging over every episode is the haunted feeling that something terrible is about to happen ("'Cause if you don't... todos nos vamos al infierno") and that it will be epic.
I still find Matthew Fox's Jack annoying (I laughed out loud when Dogen started pummeling him) but Terry Quinn is brilliant as the "evil Locke/Man in Black," a genial villain with icy eyes; Michael Emerson's creepy Ben is fleshed out to perfection; Josh Holloway's hatred, sorrow and pain are explored; and Yunjin Kim and Daniel Dae Kim are ideal when their characters finally reunite. And Jorge Garcia is, as always, the show's heart.
There's also some brilliant performances from the supporting cast -- Nestor Carbonell will break your HEART, Hiroyuki Sanada has a brief but excellent role, and Mark Pellegrino is eerie and a little sad.
"Lost: The Complete Final Season" does not answer all the questions raised, and the finale is too oblique, but it does conjure up a brilliantly complex, powerful final arc for this unique TV show.
