'LOST' IS FINALLY OVER:IT TURNS OUT PLANE CRASHES ARE PRETTY FATAL AFTER ALL

We were introduced to ‘Lost’ six years ago. It started with a jet airliner crash and ended with the result of almost every plane crash: A lot of dead people.

It took these people six years to figure out they were dead. We suspected that they were dead, but the writers could have swung ‘Lost’ into a parallel universe, so we stayed loyal to the last episode.

The last episode was infinitely better than the last episode of ‘The Sopranos'.

The ‘Lost’ series bogged down at times with a soap opera disease, but it was generally an entertaining series. The hereafter ending meant that everybody was hooked up with their appropriate love interest.

The big winner was Jack, because he ended up sharing eternity with Kate, and that ain’t a shabby prospect.

Hurley and Locke arrived at the big mystical prom without dates, but they had giant smiles on their faces. Perhaps the guest list was not finalized for these two guys, because eternity without romance would seem like nerd hell.

So we can surmise that the cast spent six years in the waiting room before they got a ticket to paradise. But they didn’t have to read stale magazines to pass the time. They got to hook up, shoot at people, get shot, drown, have babies, get thrown in cages, hook up with different people,  punch out Linus, fix the cuts on Linus, punch Linus out again- let’s face it- these people were never bored.

Final analysis? ‘Lost’ was better than ‘Gilligan’s Island’ It had hotter women and they managed to get off the island in the final episode. The fact that they were dead was a big drawback, but at least they didn’t have Gilligan on the island. They could have wrapped ‘Lost’ up in half the time and it would have been a perfect series.

In theory most people don’t need six years to figure out that they are dead.

COMMENTS

SHELLEY:"Lots of comments out there this morning about the last episode...still not sure what I thought about it...but you are right...still beats hanging around on Gilligan's Island for a decade or 2....lol"

ANGUS:"I didn't watch that show but the fact that they're all dead explains why the fat dude never lost any weIght on the island."

KERRY:"And why they never looked really gross and hairy after not showering or shaving for months."
