I completely forgot how they play out, but tbh I do find Jack's arc somewhat touching.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Doesn’t he adopt like four kids in the end and move to San Francisco?
No that was Walt.

To be honest, I hope you wait until late 2025.

Getting stuck in a loop would have been a great ending to this show.

Jack sets off bomb and stops the incident.
Plane doesn't crash, so Jack never comes to the island.
So, the incident happens, and the plane crashes.

Season 6 is the worst season. It feels like a different show, and not in a good way.

I'm liking this more and more. Jack sets off the bomb, and the episode ends. Finale for Season 5 is the plane landing safely in LA, then it says "Thirty Years Earlier," and you watch Dharma drill into the energy pocket with no one from the future trying to stop them, and they create the Swan Station. You watch Desmond arrive and kind of montage to the day he doesn't hit the button. End Season 6.

Season 6 is just Season 1. You can watch it in a loop forever.

In a very real way, Season 6 is a different show

In a very real way, Season 6 ruins the whole series

Lost season 6 is so good. I’m down to the last episode and I may just not watch so that it never ends.

Everyone in this show is always running off to do their shit immediately. I mean, fuck, Kate, Claire's been on the island for 3 years. Why don't you get one night's sleep before you run off after her?

Sometimes I think about how unbelievable this scene is...

When a super pregnant Claire tells Charlie, a total stranger at that point, how much she's craving peanut butter, he brings her back absolutely nothing and tells her to pretend it's peanut butter.

She goes along with it instead of killing him right then and there.

Such wild writing.

Watched the pilot episode tonight. First time watching the show since it originally ended.

The pilot is perfect. It's brilliant. Fuck I really love and miss this show.
