On Tuesday night all LOST fans will be blessed with a bittersweet and much anticipated 6th and final season. Still so many questions to be answered but as the commercials have told us, "Answers will come!". As a true fan knows we cannot believe it until it is seen. MAny Lost fans have come and gone but I have always stayed true even though it is one of the more frustrating shows to watch on TV. Thank whoever or whatever is up in the sky that finally after all the moving islands, flashbacks, shifts in the space and time continuum fights with the Others, love triangles with Jack and Kate, deaths, and journeys with John Locke that make you want to choke him we will finally find out why these people are part of an amazing lie. Love or hate the show you can't deny that it is truly unique in a world dominated by reality shows.
To me season 5 was pivotal because it is obvious Lost has been losing viewers as the plot gets more and more intense. The infiltration of the Dharma Initiative and reunion of the survivors were great moments that have steered us towards answers about why they came back and what exactly is going on. Season 5 was also focused on the emergence of John Locke as more then a space cadet and a potential leader of the Others and the Survivors. Benjamin Linus is a spectacular villain who helped bring John out of his shell and put him in a coffin. Sayid has always been my favorite and was a beast in Season 5. I never cared for Faraday and his friends but they added an interesting element to outsiders coming onto the island. With all that being said it is all about the detonation that left us hanging in the Season 5 finale.
Who is dead? What year will it be? Is Juliet alive at the bottom of the hole or tunnel or whatever that was? Will Sun and Jin be reunited? Will we ever find out what happened to Claire? If Jacob is dead who is controlling the island? What is the deal with Richard never aging? What's going to happen next?
That is why you have to at least respect if not love this show, there is never a moment when you know exactly what is going on. If you have never watched the show I feel bad for you. Go watch some of the earlier seasons and catch up quick. This last season will be a must see. Don't think about all the questions unanswered don't think about any torture the show has ever caused your brain just sit your ass down in front of the TV and enjoy. Tuesday night 8 pm ABC. "It's the beginning of the end".
