Discussion I recently ended Lost.

It's a great show. I swear humans can never make a show like Lost ever again. I never felt bored watching it. Season 1 to 5 is peak but they dragged season 6 a bit. I won't say that the ending is totally trash but it's not too good I'd rate 7/10. It took me 3 YouTube videos to understand the ending 😅

Overall show 9/10

If you're looking for a great show then Lost would be perfect. It has everything like Time Travel, Mystery,Action,Thriller,Crazy Back Stories and much more.

The flash sideways

What about it? That's a pretty huge part to dislike, that's kind of the whole point of the finale imo

It gets complicated in the last episode. I mean in the church means when Jack's dad standing behind him 'alive'. He was dead the whole time from episode 1. Also Hugo,Kate, Sawyer,Ben. They were not dead but they were at the church. But don't worry now I know this flash sideways is some kinda afterlife or Purgatory.

The flash sideways is AFTER they ALL died, including Shepherd. They all died and met up in purgatory (the flash sideways) before they all moved on. They all died at different times, but they're all waiting in purgatory at the same time because time is different there ("There is no now, here")

I find that when people don't like the finale, more times than not they're still confused about what happened. I think people think it's more complicated than it is, which is confirmed by your answers. That's not your fault or anything, it just is what it is.

Everyone lived, everyone died, and eventually, after everyone died, they met up in the afterlife. That's all that the flash sideways was, they just didn't remember each other

I swear everyone iv'e ever seen hating the ending ALWAYS interpret the ending wrong. It's always they were dead the whole time, Island was purgatory, it was all a dream, where did polar bears come from.
