A few years ago, when I first started watching Lost, I got addicted to it. I watched all the episodes available on the Internet at that moment and I was obsessed with Jack. When I ran out of episodes after season 3 I almost cried. It was like my life had no meaning at all (it may sound crazy to some of you, but this happens to lots of people when they finish a TV series or a book), I was devastated for a couple of days... then I started watching something else and managed to live out of the island.
Then I watched season 4, ran out of episodes, same story (though I didn't like it as much as the first 3).
For some reason it never seemed to be the right moment to start with seasons 5 and 6 when they were available. I remember all the excitement for the series finale... people getting out of bed in the middle of the night just to watch the episode, for once, at exactly the same time it was on in USA. But I hadn't watched season 5 yet, so I just prayed not to hear how it had ended before I decided to watch it.
Well, during Christmas I watched all 6 seasons... and part of me thinks it would have been better to stay as I was, because I absolutely adored that series... The last two seasons (specially the last one) however, well... were (for me) just "meh".
I loved everything related to the Dharma Initiative. I wished they would have exploited more that side. All the weird "science" stuff, Dharma, and I would have even been happy(ish) with the time travel, whatever.
Now, all the mysticism... that wasn't for me. The series would have been perfect for me if Jacob had never existed. Or been mentioned.
Or, I don't know... I might have accepted it if they had chosen one thing or the other: either Dharma or Jacob. The way they mixed things up broke my heart a little.
I know (even if I tried not to hear about it) that there were lots of people disappointed by how it ended, people who hated it with passion, but people who loved it as well. So I'm wondering... what did you think of it?
