What did everyone think of it?

Personally I thought it was a great ending for a series that I loved.

Actually after thinking about it, I become less and less a fan of this ending.

I would have been more satisfied with Jack sacrificing himself by placing the rock back in the whole. Upon this the alternate reality would have become what was happening. All of the characters on the island would still have their flashes of remembering the island, then met and all united at Jack's funeral, making Jack a christlike figure that sacrificed himself.

I think this would've been better

I thought the first 2 hours and twenty minutes were awesome. Then the last ten minutes sorta killed it for me. I was afraid that they were going to all be dead. Oh well.

the only reason they didnt have the alternate reality become the actual reality is because i think that they were focusing on the fact about how each and everyone of them effected eachothers lives

Think about it LOST though six seasons with every episode having you wonder what is going to happen next. Even though the ending could of been better i will very much miss my favorite show of the last six years.

The series finale was good but the ending was terrible.  They basically put all the 'couples' together in a church and was like yea they are all dead.  What was the point of that?  Why did they all die?  What about the other people on the island?  What happened to the island?

The Island survives. At the church Ben and Hugo congratulate each other for doing good job's as no.1 & no. 2 running the island, and i'm guessing stayed there until their deaths. All of the people gathered at the Church are already deceased, and for some reason they all meet together (because what they did on the Island was the most important parts of their lives) before they transition on to the "next phase". Obviously some of the people in the Church had died before (Christian), and others later (Hugo, Kate, Sawyer, Ben etc.). Keep in mind that Christian said the place they were in had no now or where or when, time has no relevance. It appeared that the sideways timeline's purpose was to provide a "second chance" for the survivors to amend the damages and unshoulder their burdens in their lives before moving on. They were all dead, but each lived out real lives before coming to that place. Kate for instance told Jack she had waited so long, she left the island on the plane, but Jack sacrificed himself to save the island. Even though it's frustrating that many of the scientific anomalies and mysteries of the island are never answered, the depiction of death and the emotional reintroductions of each character with their most loved ones was extremely powerful. In the end the mysteries of the island don't matter, but the time each person spent there and interacted with each other depicts human nature at it's most basic and most important.

Well I though it was a little comfusing. Like the whole dead thing. But it made sense after I thought about it. The whole Lock and Jack fight scene was cool. To sum it up I thought it was pretty much the best way you can end a show like Lost

i was hoping for more of a WHOA ending. that one was kinda lame. it just showed everyone dead and meeting up again. After all the years of questions and wtf moments this is what it comes to?

that is incredibly true. It was the most captivating show on television for 6 years in a row and we can only hope that these writers come out with something close to the greatness of lost in the near future

I'm not a lost fan, but i listened to the radio this morning and apparently after about an hour into the finale, NBC loses satellite reception for most of Ohio. The entire episode is cut off and not finished. So now people have to find it onlien or wait forever for it to be replayed on TV.

glad I never got sucked into this show

haha, so how much was actually answered? from what i hear, half was answered and the rest was half-assed explained leaving the viewer to speculate the rest. basically this means the show failed fucking horribly. good job on wasting 6 seasons of your lives suckers. biggest fail of a series ever? i think so.

No...that's not what happened. Check out the Official Lost Final Countdown thread, there you'll find your answers.

So why is it that a show would fail when it wanted viewers to speculate their own answers. Is it not a good thing to have people think about answers of their own rather be told something was true? And as far as wasting 6 seasons of their lives how often do you waste your time on here?
