Lost (BOOM) -There will be discussion of most recently aired episodes-
Ozymandias:
Not the same ending. The island wasn't purgatory and I'm not sure why people keep saying that. Everything that happened for 6 years was real and not explained away with "they were dead."
The flash-sideways was a sort of purgatory thing, but it was also just an epilogue. A nice little happy ending that we got to watch for the entire season.

KvP:
I mean I get that the timeline split when the bomb went off and the flash-sideways was the purgatory after that, but all the same, I'll echo the complaints that a lot of other people had, in that the ending was sufficient for that timeline but left the Island part of it (ie the interesting part) high and dry. As it stands it's sort of a late-period Stephen King ending. Which I'm generally okay with, I just think it's sort of a waste of the interesting setting.
I'd welcome a spinoff, but not a TV spinoff, and probably not a film spinoff either. Novelizations or comix would be good.
Wonder what the creators have up their sleeve for their next show.
Lines:
I honestly don't know why people think Jack would suck. When it comes down to things, he is a little me me why me sometimes, but if I were in his shoes, I'd probably react the same way. But as an actor, I think he did really well with Lost. All of the actors did.
Thinking about it more, I guess I am ok with having some questions about the island left unanswered and I can deal with the cast being dead. They all found each other (minus Michael and Walt, but I think that's mostly due to Walt being to old to fit in the sideways properly and I guess because Michael being stuck undead like on the island) and they're all happy in the afterlife. They all definitely did not die at the same time (such as characters who died throughout the series and Hurley and Ben obviously being on the island for quite a while after the others escaped and Jack died), so the island is definitely not purgatory and that makes me happier. The sideways being some afterlife thing is just fine, but I am glad that the island itself is still a bit of a mystery.
A Sawyer/Miles comic would be good too. Maybe nedroid could take up the case...
Liz:
I still want Sawyer and Miles to get a spin-off buddy cop show. I would watch it until the end of time.
