Lost Season Finale
May 24, 2007Okay...I am completely flabbergasted. There is nobody I know that is a "Lost" fan.
I watched the two-hour season finale of the 3rd season last night...and I had nobody to call and say things like:
"Holy batwings, that was freaking awesome!"
"I can't believe Sawyer did that!"
"They have to bring back Charlie!"
So on and so forth.
Now...make no mistake, "24" is my fave. show on television...but "Lost" is a close second. And I won't even pretend to say that the season finale of "24" can hold a freaking candle to last night's show on ABC.
Pound for pound...."Lost" had a MUUUUUUUUUCH better season than "24" and that's saying a lot.
Now...if you're lost on what I'm even talking about....it'll take too much to catch you up on the entire show. But here's the basic premise:
Plane crashes on Pacific island...48 survivors.
The island was a research station, there are bad guys running all over the place.
There are also monsters on the island....a black smoke cloud thing and polar bears that were part of the research.
The island itself has some mysterious powers, electromagnetic whatnots and health issues (all the women who get pregnant on the island die."
It seems all the people on the island from the plane crash have a purpose for being there and a connection to each other...as in, it wasn't pure chance that they were on the plane and crashed.
This show has more twists and turns than anything on television...even more so than "24". It's kinda hard to follow, which is why there are so many internet resources with pages of theories and information.
So...anywho, the season finale absolutely blew me out of the water. Throughout the history of the show, we've seen flashbacks of things that had happened in the past. And the finale started out with a scene that you automatically ASSUMED was in the past...but I couldn't figure out where in the main character's (Jack) past it was.
Turns out....it was a glimpse into THE FUTURE...the first time that had happened on the show. Now that was a loop that nobody saw coming from everything I've read online.
ABC has extended the run of the show for 3 more seasons until 2010....each season 16 episodes running consecutively from Feb. to the May sweeps.
I can't freaking wait....now, I just have to find somebody to talk about it with me.
