the end of LOST

After 5 years of following LOST, I am feeling awfully sad that it has ended.

Sure it started out with a big bang. Capturing the minds of all around. Its large casts of castaways, each with a sad past yet interesting past, were each given a choice to make.

The following season (2) then started to insert lots of confusing elements. Making us all LOST. What is a Hatch doing in the middle of nowhere. Who are the Others?

3rd season became the war that goes on between the Others and the survivors. Oh and if I forget to mention, the writers were clever to be able to insert new characters and kill of old ones.

Season 4 occurs in the midst of the silly writer strike. Ok I aint a writer and they have deserve more perks and a higher salary, but they sure have ruin the whole pace of the season. Anyhow, it explored on how some of the remaining survivors managed to escape the island and resume their old life.

Season 5 is a crazy one. Those remaining on the island have traveled back in time. Those whom left, were wary and ended up wanting to get back. And who is this Jacob whom was trying to be the wise old man.

Lastly this final season explore the what if. What if, the plane did not crash and that everyone has safely landed. And this became a parallel universe of some sorts.

I must say that I never am so intrigue by this imagination. The concept of the story draws you in and kept you riveting on the dynamic of the individual and the group. It now set the tone for better serials to include a large cast and the ability of the writers to kill off or revive a character.

Now that this has ended, I am feeling Lost once more. What is left to watch out there?
