LOST for Dummies: * Some people crashed on an island * ...which turns out to be Crazy Island * then it turns out they're all connected in some way * we learn more about the characters * now we're learning more about why this all happened THAT'S IT. REALLY. It's a show about exploring who the characters are. Would they really be different people if they'd never crashed? It's a show exploring the meaning of human nature. All the other stuff is pretty much unimportant. What is so hard to understand about LOST?

LOST for Dummies:
* Some people crashed on an island
* …which turns out to be Crazy Island
* then it turns out they’re all connected in some way
* we learn more about the characters
* now we’re learning more about why this all happened

THAT’S IT. REALLY. It’s a show about exploring who the characters are. Would they really be different people if they’d never crashed? It’s a show exploring the meaning of human nature. All the other stuff is pretty much unimportant.

Though apparently his new government job is letting him off to film another Harold and Kumar movie. Ditto, I liked Kutner.

It was season 3 that started the slide for me. And I know it wasn't canon, but the Lost Experience ARG that ran at the time did cover some canon topics so it pissed me off IMMENSELY that the show just disregarded it all.

Samuel and the carnival were very intriguing right up until he went batshit generic lost-love-so-destroy-the-world badguy. Still, it's the second best season and has had enough to stop me regretting sticking with it. Almost said the same about Lost - starts in the UK tonight and I'm very glad it's the last season because I am at that "c'mon let's sort this shit out" mindset now. One way or another Lost will be done with in 4 months, and it'll either rock the heavens or be a welcome end to a great show that "lost" its way.
