Lost Finale

If you haven't seen the Lost finale, stop reading this post! And, go watch it at abc.com!!

I was totally blown away MANY times last night! I have only read the post at Rocks in My Dryer and the Hanso Foundation letter , so I don't know what the message boards or anyone else is saying. So, here are a few of my thoughts, in random order, because that's how my brain works:

I just have to say that Hurley is my new favorite! I liked him before, but after getting in the VW bus and plowing down the Others, I am impressed!! I started out the episode feeling really bad for him, but he is awesome!!

Why did Charlie have to die? I think he is a lot smarter than that! He could have gotten out. I guess though that Desmond would probably have tried to get in to talk to Penny! And, Des also told Charlie that if he didn't die, they would have never been rescued.

On that note, I think that the people in the boat off shore are the Hanso foundation coming back to work on the Dharma project and maybe retaliate for all of their people that the Others/Hostiles killed!! They could have perhaps been turned to the side of the survivors, but maybe not if Locke killed Naomi!! Idiot!

Speaking of Locke, Woo Hoo!! He's alive! But, maybe that isn't such a good thing... Who knows? How did Walt do what he did? He does have some kind of weird powers...

What made Jack want to go back so badly? Had his life been made so horrible that he thought it was caused by the island? Who could he have cared about so much that his dying made Jack want to kill himself? My husband thinks that it may have been Ben. That if Ben died, Jack saw no way to ever get back to the island. It would make sense that no one would have gone to Ben's viewing. Most of the others would have had at least a few people there.

Kate looked like she was free. Had she been freed because all that she had been through? That doesn't sound likely. We wonder if she was still on the run.

Last of all: I know that there wouldn't be a mystery or much of a show if they explained things to each other, but they would have a lot more things go the way they wanted to. If Ben had told Jack why he knew that they'd all be killed by those on the boat and who they were, maybe Jack would have taken him more seriously. The same goes for Locke. All they had to do was use that dramatic pause to tell each other what they knew and things could (maybe) work out. On the other hand, if I am right and the boat is the Hanso people, maybe that would make Jack want them to come even more!

Oh, and I was really excited to see Claire carrying Aaron in a sling of some sort while they were trekking up the hill to the radio tower! Everytime I saw her I thought that it was so cool that she was carrying him that way!!

Okay, so there's what I have to say!! I'm excited that they've been renewed for next season and to tell their whole story!!
