Lost Without LOST

Sigh.

And so comes "The End".

You'll get no spoilers here. So, don't you fret.

I've been thinking about it all night and all day and I'm really not sure what to make of it.

I have to credit the writers. They did an awfully good job of leaving the series off with a completely interpretive ending. The meaning and even what actually happened really depended on how YOU the viewer approached your own life. Impressive.

So, I would say it was a good ending if you focused entirely on the emotional aspect of the show. Everything was tied up nicely and you got to go through a big box of tissues at the same time.

And, on the other hand, I would say it was not so good an ending if you were all into the sci-fi/mystery/mythology part. They kinda pulled a fast one when it came to that by leaving all sorts of open questions.

But, then again, that was what the show did best - lots of character depth and crazy-ass unexplainable sci-fi shenanigans.

I'll miss it. A lot.

I guess it's just like coming to the end of a great book.

You're happy to get to the end, but sad to say goodbye to the universe that you've invested all this time and thought into.

Oh well. Just a bit melancholy, I guess.

I'm gonna miss Jack and Company just as much as I miss Harry and his Army and Frodo and his Fellowship.
