What I’m watching: Lost Season Six

Lost was probably the best show ever. The end of the third season, when they introduced the flashforward, was the coolest thing I’ve ever seen on television. Yes, even better than the Conan O’Brien Simpsons episodes (yes, yes, Heresy! I know.)

I’m a little annoyed the ending wasn’t more sci-fi-y. But ultimately I think the show was about the characters and their relationships to one another. And the creators ended that beautifully. Fully revealing everything would have left most of the viewers annoyed that their pet theory wasn’t right. Resolving the characters themselves is something that the viewer can’t argue with, and can only enjoy.

So it was sappy. And it left me confused and annoyed. But happy. What a badass show.
