And now it's time to play ...

[apocalypsos]

Okay, this is what I'm getting:

Halfway through season one:

JJ Abrams* walks into the break room to find Damon Lindehof* angrily throwing aside a copy of EW.

LINDEHOF: Goddamn it, they're onto us!

ABRAMS: What do you mean?

LINDEHOF: The it's-all-purgatory theory is in the lead!

ABRAMS: Oh. Huh.

LINDEHOF: What are we going to do?! If everybody figures it out this early, we're screwed!

ABRAMS: Well. okay. What if we just throw in an alternate universe and make THAT purgatory?

LINDEHOF: ... you're a fucking GENIUS.

ABRAMS: We're still going to make sure nothing makes sense, right?

LINDEHOF: Oh, of course not. That would just be silly.

* Feel free to swap those names around.

Remember, kids, I tease because I love. :D

All I could figure out from reading other people's blog posts was that if I had still been watching, I would have been PISSED.

Then again, most of the reason I stopped watching was because I finally realized that I would have much rather watched a show that was just about a plane crashing on an island and the survivors carrying on -- no Dharma, no hatch, no time-travel BS. (And I *like* timey-wimey stuff, but ... no.)

see i really started enjoying the show when i let go of the mythology stuff and just enjoyed the character exploration. Along the way the myth stuff added some great colour and movement.

So basically the finale was all the characters reuniting with loved ones, hugging each other, having rosy flashbacks and getting to live (or well die) happily ever after. My main problem was that EVERYONE got a happy ending. Rivalries were forgotten or forgiven and evil guys became good. Which i suppose is a fair representation of what people hope Heaven is.

I am just cynical enough to prefer Supernatural's version of the universe.

Nods...I originally thought it was going to be a little more survival/apocalyps-y. Once I realized it was going to be 'let's throw increasingly bizaare things into the mix and never ever explain anything' I gave up on the show.
