Do You Miss Lost?

Nope, it did nothing but go downhill after the first season. Cheesy, vague ending didn't help in the least.

I do miss the show but in keeping with the spirit of the finale I'm letting go and moving on.

Every good show needs to end. If there's one thing that “Lost” has learned us, it's that you need to know WHEN and HOW it ends or else you're in trouble. And let's face it, the show had it's weak and mediocre moments due to this. As a fan of comics and graphic novels, that's a lesson companies like Marvel and DC will sadly never learn…
“Sopranos”, “The Wire”, “Battlestar Galactica”, etc… all T.V.-shows that I didn't want to end but had to end to a consistantly high quality. A show that ended too soon was Angel because it started getting really excellent in the last episodes of the last season… And one of my favorite T.V.shows ever is “Firefly” which never got a fair chance of gaining an audience despite being the best Sci-fi-serie ever…
I'm actually glad Lost is over although I always looked forward to the next episode.

People are split right down the middle on Lost now, it's hilarious. I miss it like crazy, although I would rather they end the show than keep on going until it gets bad. In my eyes it's the greatest television show of all time. Was it perfect? No. But you know what? It was as close as we'll probably ever get to perfection.
Many shows are incredible but they lose steam and just keep going half assed. Sopranos is a great example, as is Battlestar. The first two seasons of BSG are some of the greatest shows I've ever seen in my life, but later on it kept getting more and more convoluted and in the end, there was a lot that didn't make sense.
Yeah Lost left us with many questions, and now we're all split into two factions. Those who can't get over that we didn't get everything spelled out for us, and every little mystery solved, and those who just enjoyed it for what it was, and are happy they did well by the characters and gave us an emotional ending, rather than one chock full of answers to every little tiny question.
I guess it's going to go on forever like this, so even with it gone, people will be talking about it for a long time.

The finale was a beautiful ending to a generally well crafted series. I didn't need every question answered because I'd stopped watching for that reason long ago.

No.
While the cheap and pointless finale doesn't ruin the other exciting seasons for me, it did taint this last season. Still have a bad taste in my mouth but I don't feel like I wasted my time…just two and half hours.

It's funny, I think the men of faith loved the finale and the men of science hated it. Another reason why it was such a great finale!

Awww, poor you. You didn't understand.

Really well put, couldn't agree with you more.

After that craptastic, shark-jumping, fridge-nuking finale? No way! Lost is lost to me now.

Actually, I for one loved the ending, and I would probably have been a man of science on that island. I'm an atheist but always loved afterlife musings as science-fiction tools, when it's not too heavily used. I liked Alan Moore's Promethea a lot and saw many connections with what the final episodes say the island is.

I miss it, but not much as I have gone back and started re-watching the series from episode one with my daughter, who didn't watch it the first time around.
And I have to say, knowing that so many of the “mysteries” don't really matter (Dharma, Hanso) actually seems to be liberating, as I can watch the show and just enjoy the characters and actors without worrying what everything means. Kid is loving it too, so maybe that is also having a positive effect on me.

You win the comments (close 2nd place goes to Refrax).

For the record, I voted for missing Evangeline Lily. Because she's hot. And no, I'm not shallow, I'm just holding on to the one thing that doesn't make me bitter again, and that's introducing that beauty to the world. Thank you Lost for Evangeline Lily.

I am just glad to know that everyone is dead. I felt it was unfair that some characters died before others but at least I can be happy knowing Jack, Hurley, and Locke are really dead.

It really was a show that reinvented television. You had to be there from Season 1 to the very last epi to understand the creative genius that was the stuff great books stem from. I am just your typical Long Island 49 something that fell in love with the characters, the acting and especially the hottest man to deliver one-line nicknames..(Sawyer, Josh Holloway)

I am so tired of the knee jerk arguments that if you didn't enjoy the finale you were either A) too stupid to “figure it out” or B) an anal fanboy who had to have “every little question” answered.

I am neither.

I loved Lost for years and will always remember the truly stirring and dramatic moments of the show as well as the unforgettable characters and their quest for meaning and redemption.

However, the finale and many other episodes found the show not adhering to its own internal logic. It is obvious now that many elements were never “all planned out in advance” and that some plot elements were just thrown against the wall to see what would stick. Walt, Libby, the man in the chair in the cabin, the A bomb explosion, the 'disease', the pregnancy thread, etc. There's a faction of fans who would have accepted whatever explanation (or non explanation) the the creators came up with and they counted on that and I find that very cynical on their part.

I enjoyed the concept of the sideways verse, but as others have said, it's explanation was weak and not very creative. A science based act (the H bomb explosion) created a supernatural realm? Again, this is a “whatever we say makes sense because we say it does” explanation that just doesn't jive with the delicacy and precision of the show's earlier writing. And if you say it didn't create that realm, then the explosion did nothing other than kill Juliet and others on the island, and (maybe) transport them to 2007? Again, this guts the significance of the act.

I'm cool with leaving a lot of stuff up to interpretation, but I think we've come to expect more care and finesse in the crafting of this once in a lifetime show. Lots of great memories here, but they did drop the ball on the finale.

I miss lost so much it hurts!

I search the web each night hoping we will get the news of LOST return to tv in some format. My heart tells me that someone out there is pushing the idea. I think there are so many ideas to run with, and maybe even a few amends to make with the fans. I find some faults with season six, but over all, I've never enjoyed a show more! The mysterious island has so much more to tell. Lets DO IT.

It’s was always about the people. People still don’t get it.

you clearly aren’t tii bright. best show ever and if you didn’t get it you didn’t pay attention.

I agree with you on a lot of things. It’s actually amazing how much I grew to love the characters. I liked that they were real and made mistakes………I think about the show every now and then; it made a mark in my mind that I will remember forever.

totally agree with you. I miss my weekly dose of Jack, Kate, hugo, sawyer, jin, locke,sun, claire, sayid…… and even Ben… totally miss them. I want to have something to be excited about with TV and just don’t. bummed yes I like dexter but not the same…..

You tell me how two insignificant rocks appear in the first season to miraculously show up in the last episode with some meaning behind them. I have never watched a show that had so many lose ends to tie up and to actually get tied up in a way that makes perfect sense. BEST SHOW EVER. If you don’t think so, you must have not grasped the intricate story line. Watch it once more.

to all the people who didnt like lost FUCK YOU  this was the best show ever to grace our screens
If you didnt understand it BAD LUCK you DUMB FUCK (go back to watching redtube you fucking pervert ) FUCK I miss Lost, GOD I wish it was real and I was there WTF is wrong with me

It was just a great show that got me away from reality and made me feel great, simple as that if you dont understand it FUCK YOU 

I’m on 4th season and I must that I’m going to miss it.
