After all the hype my husband and I started watching it on Netflix last night- first episode ever and we had to turn it off. We were afraid we would have bad dreams all night long. We will watch it but maybe not right before bed. My son and his wife said "we have to watch it" so we will try again. We did watch all of "24" but it got old at the end. Also watch HOUSE- started that with old episodes on Netflix until we caught up with the current season. Surprisingly I like that one.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12879692999116803961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-82916394272072412672010-05-26T17:33:16.570-04:002010-05-26T17:33:16.570-04:00Never saw one show of LOST.

They just plain sneak up on me.<br /><br />Now, about LOST. I couldn't read this post until I had finally watched the final episode. We had company over on Sunday night and couldn't watch and then we have tried to watch it online and keep falling asleep. So, today I am waiting for a crew to come and put in replacement windows....so far they are four hours late...and decided to watch it. <br /><br />Naturally, I don't agree with the theology and I don't get the whole timeline thing but it was definitely intriguing. I would consider watching the entire series again to see if the writers actually thought everything through.<br /><br />Maybe.<br /><br />Now I can read your blog again...just had to get caught up.<br /><br />BeckyBecky K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10531485758141842829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-39325708096267258802010-05-26T08:44:10.436-04:002010-05-26T08:44:10.436-04:00Hmm... we watched the first season and loved it, b...Hmm... we watched the first season and loved it, but nary a one since.

While not a LOST fan, I was interested in how it ended after all the hurrah the last six years! I think it made me glad that I didn't get into it. I hate begin disappointed. =)<br /><br />I cried my tears over the last original Law and Order. It premiered for the first time the fall I went away to college and I was hooked. A huge group of us used to pile up in the lobby of the dorm to watch it. It was never the same after Jerry Orbach passed away, but still a must see in our home. Twenty seasons.... unbelievable! The fact I started college 20 years ago .... well, we will whine another day.

Don't feel like you wasted 6 years in watching, it was full of entertainment, cliff hangers, a fun puzzle trying to make all the pieces fit, I could go on and on why it was such a great series.<br /><br />I think some of us like an absolute closure, I do, but this ending keeps you thinking of the "what if's". I loved the fact that the first episode opened with, Jack opening his eyes on the island and it ended with him closing his eyes on the island, brillant!! <br /><br />Here's my take...Just like Jack's dad said, some died before Jack and some died afterwards. We don't know the time frame for everyone's death, but you are right about how they all waited for Jack to die and then reunited in the church to go into the light "all together". I felt it was great how they 'one by one' had their "awakenings" remembering each other and their past relationships. <br /><br />I know the death of the smoke monster was dumb, but I think for the most part the writers wanted to focus in on the individual relationships and how they impacted each other's lives. Jack had a major impact in ALL their lives that's why they waited for him in the end. I was wondering how they were going to bring 'Christian Sheppard' in at the end, thought it was great how he was the one that ushered Jack into realizing he was now dead. <br /><br />I did feel there was a sense of God and Heaven at the end, the church, the light, etc.... <br /><br />Well my friend, maybe there will be a follow up movie or something down the road...ya never know. <br /><br />Thanks for posting about your thoughts, you knew I would be over here today.

Sometimes I felt left when I heard friends talking about it, but now hearing how disappointed some are with the ending, I'm glad I didn't get hooked! But we don't get snowed in all winter & need something to keep us entertained. I'd have probably watched it, too, and MORE TV or I'd have gone stark raving CRAZY!!!<br /><br />I just love Aunt Amelia's "way" of commenting, don't you!!!Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07741431727993692456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-7758685151535255472010-05-25T09:38:05.813-04:002010-05-25T09:38:05.813-04:00oh Vee, just think how much you will actually enjo...oh Vee, just think how much you will actually enjoy 'Memorial Day' now that everything is ready to go :) As for Lost I too was a bit disappointed. I didn't expect to find a clear Christian allegory, too limiting for audiences, they must appeal to everyone. I think we each took our own beliefs into the ending...I found the drinking of the water to remind me of our Lord's 'Living Water' and the passing of the cup reminded me of 'Communion'...as for moving on in the end well, I guess they really can't answer that now can they, only God and those who have gone before us no what the 'Truth' is and we are all in some way 'Lost'.Diva Kreszlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16278102837785791249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-16965390530437151652010-05-25T09:29:47.692-04:002010-05-25T09:29:47.692-04:00I never watched Lost although it was one of the fe...I never watched Lost although it was one of the few shows my daughter and son-in-law watched either online or at a friend's house (they have no TV hook up).<br /><br />Christopher told me the same thing I had heard from other Christians, the end was interesting but disappointing in the way they portrayed all faiths leading to the same end.<br /><br />I watched the last hour of 24 last night (of the two hour series finale). Was just curious as to how they were going to end the series and I thought they did an excellent job on that one.Brenda@CoffeeTeaBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02719695370857675146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-26852631265638879342010-05-25T09:06:27.280-04:002010-05-25T09:06:27.280-04:00OK, you're still trying to tell us that you fo...OK, you're still trying to tell us that you fooled your whole family, and us too, into thinking you thought it was Memorial Day! -gigggggggggggles- <br /><br />It was Victoria Day, you know, but a bit farther up north. Maybe that's what got you mixed up.<br /><br />LOST... Never happened to watch any of it. Not unusual. I don't have any show, which I have the fun of being devoted to watching. [He loves "The Mentalist" and never misses. We did watch "24" for a while.]<br /><br />I know, I'm missing fun! By not choosing to follow a show. Dang it! Where do I go, to get the gumption to chose one, and stick with it?<br /><br />Welllllllll, <b><i><a href="http://www.prettylittleliars.com/" rel="nofollow">"Pretty Little Liars"</a></i></b> begins next week. ,-) And I've read the first 3 books in the long series of books. They've got some WILD stuff to work with, in those books!!!! Plus, NO Vampires or Werewolves! For a change. Just totally shallow HS girls. Shallow? Did I say shallow? Awwww these gals give "shallow," a deep new meaning. So it should be *Eye Candy* and romps, all the way. <br /><br />Since I'm still having fun with reading Young Adult Lit, I'll be sure to try the tv show. <br /><br />And I'll probably watch a few episodes and drop it, like I did with "Vampire Diaries." Oh well...
