Some things are best left unknown.

If we judge everyone by Lucas' failings as a storyteller, we might as well give out participation trophies. -- nm - David May 24, 14:02 2
- I think you could grab a Star Wars fan at random and have him write a better prequel script. -- nm - Reagen May 24, 14:07 1
  - I think Lucas is a great comparison for Lost, though. - David May 24, 14:14
Anybody know the band Besnard Lakes? - pmb May 24, 13:56 2
- yeah, I dig them. -- nm - Callisto May 24, 13:56
- How did this end up here. I'll repost. -- nm - pmb May 24, 13:56
it's pretty clear that there was a lot of stuff the Lost producers threw in there because it seemed cool at the time - Reagen May 24, 13:52 12
- That's what happens when a group of creative people aren't given enough oversight. - David May 24, 14:04 3
  - they've also copped to flailing about a bit when they didn't know how long the series would run. -- nm - Reagen May 24, 14:05 2
    - "Jack's Tattoo" was apparently the impetus for getting a firm end date. -- nm - Reagen May 24, 14:16 1
      - and it should have prompted an end date. - Mel Profit May 24, 14:20
- Your last IM sentence is spot on. - musubi May 24, 13:54 2

  - Yup. If they had made the series in such a way that we could all figure it out, where would the fun have been in that? -- nm - Nightcrawler May 24, 13:58
- *clears throat* -- nm - JMS May 24, 13:53 1
  - 110 episodes. Totally different thing. -- nm - Reagen May 24, 13:54
- that was exactly the feeling i got when i did watch. and why i became frustrated with it all and stopped watching. -- nm - kare May 24, 13:53 2
  - and based on what i'm seeing here, i'm glad i stopped - kare May 24, 13:55 1
    - Yo must only be reading some of the posts, then. - Nightcrawler May 24, 14:00

Maybe part of the problem is that no one in the storyline (spoilers) - oblique May 24, 13:51 3
- Fair enough. I too, would like to know... - Dr.Vermin May 24, 13:54 2
  - (spoilers) - znufrii May 24, 13:57
  - I understand the end of sideways just fine (spoilers) - oblique May 24, 13:55
i'm not disappointed at the lack of explanation. i just think that the explanation they gave us is lame -- nm - sideways pixie May 24, 13:50
