It was the ending I expected for more than half the series, but they managed to sidetrack me.

I don’t think so. The island was symbolic for individual existence.

The ending is about everyone remembering who they really are and that all are connected. The island adventure is symbolic of the journey that relates all together. Very cool presentation of this spiritual concept.

“Nope. Everybody died and everybody got off the island.”

I don’t get it. I loved it, but didn’t understand it. (Much like Obamamania!)

If some got off the island in the plane, but they were all dead, what happened? There’s some connection I’m not making. Help!

I don’t understand what happened to Richard, Miles and Lapidus.

Ben didn’t feel worthy?

“It was beautiful. I’m numb right now.”

I hear you. In this day and age I never, ever expected a TV series to end the way Lost did. Just wow! :-)!

Note: This is not a putdown of “Lost”...it is just the impression of someone who has never seen it before tonight.

LOL...my wife is a “Lost” addict, and I have never watched it. Tonight, she really wanted to watch it with someone else, so...being her loving husband, I agreed to watch it with her. We began at 1900 and just finished up.

I have to say...it was not good for me. It was like Chinese Water Torture to me. I don’t watch television at all, and haven’t for years.

Now, don’t get me wrong. My opinion on Lost, having watched it tonight for the first time, was what I would rightfully expect anyone in my position to experience.

“Can’t I go surf Free Republic?”

“No. And don’t bring the laptop in here, either.” So I watched and tried to get into it.

Hehehe, my wife did her level best to explain stuff to me, but...I gotta say: the first two hours of watching the self-love fest they were all showering on themselves was a bit off-putting to me, but...as I said, I am pretty sure I would have felt otherwise if I had watched it all alone. I have now fulfilled my husbandly duties...off to bed, and...

My condolences to all you “Lost” addicts out there...I can imagine it is like reading a really good book you don’t want to end, and when you do get the end, you feel a disappointment that it...ended!

It’s ok that it ended. I’m glad they didn’t drag it out year after year.

The alternate universe was purgatory. Or that’s how I see it.

During the scene with Jack and his father, the stained glass in the window had symbols for all of the major religions. They created that place to find each other, according to Christian. That way, all of them could meet there - Sayid was Muslim, the Korean couple were I believe Buddihst...

Dunno. Im going to have to ponder this one. Not a homerun, like the ending of “Six Feet Under”, but not a slap in the face like “The Sopranos”.

I guess the rest, we can decide upon in our own mind - like who exactly was Widmore, why was he involved, and why was he doing what he was.

And THANK YOU to the writers for reuniting Hurley with Libby. That guy need to catch a break, for once.

Christian Shephard explained it best. There is no time in the eternal ‘now’. Everyone dies at some point, some before and some long after Jack. In spirit, they had agreed to come together to reunite in the closing scene.

They all died...eventually. What happened on the island, the flashbacks, and the flash forwards, REALLY happened. The “sideways” reality, as they called it, was somehow created by their collective consciousness after they all died. (This is my interpretation anyway. Anybody got a better explanation?)

Yes, after 30 minutes of trying to figure it out, I believe that is what happened too

It didn't matter how they got off the island. As Jack's father said we all have to die sometime. And they all ended up in the same place eventually. And in that place there is no "now."

I would guess part of a successful television series is perfectly analogous to an athlete’s or rock star’s career...

Quit too early, and you lose revenue and the ability to really make a bigger impact in your field.

Quit too late, and all people remember about you is the pathetic guy who stayed in the game long enough to make people wish he had left, or the rock star playing in dives to people who have no idea who he is.

I don't get it either.

And at the last scene we see the original crash site, apparently with no survivors.

So none of it really happened?

Purgatory?

After investing so much time in the show, I was really hoping for an ending that would wrap it up and explain the meaning of the entire thing.

I should have known better. Hollywood types can't resist the opportunity to give us a "meaningful" ending that few people can make sense of.

On Jimmy Kimmel, the guy who plays Jack is saying the show was about Jack all along, that it was his journey to redemption that mattered, and the people who were with him on that journey.

But Christian said everything happened. So was that supposed to be Oceanic 815 or the plane Lapidus was flying?
