I was on vacation in Hawaii (ironically enough) and missed the finale when it actually aired... My girlfriend and I both watched it tonight, and I am amazed at all the guys who are in love with the ending...
Granted, I only picked up in Season 4, and have backtracked, but I felt that fans who stuck with the show from the start were dealt a bait-and-switch raw deal. My girlfriend watched it from the beginning, and was super pissed. No, we're not retarded, and I
get
the ending, but felt that it wasn't the type of ending that the show deserved.
Why all the sci-fi/supernatural/hocus-pocus of the island? Couldn't they have just had bad shit happen to castaways and still pulled off the ending without time travel, unexplained monsters, immortals, crazy religion, etc? I don't know, but I felt that way too much "meat" had been created over six seasons for it to be brushed aside for a measly "spiritual/huggy-teary" ending.
It's not that I'm not "smart" enough to get the ending, I get the whole sideways thing was a purgatory-waiting-zone-whatever-world, but feel it was a crap ending that the writers tried to chalk up as a "smart" ending while in effect it was sort of weak and bad writing to an otherwise really intricate storyline. I don't know, I was extremely irritated at the ending. Season Six altogether seemed like it may have been the ending planned all along, but with Season 1-5 being more or less randomly-built-up filler content that felt like it was stuffed inside a non-matching outer shell.
Le sigh.
