It was my 23rd birthday and I sat down to watch the pilot of this new show. I didn't know much about it, just that it had Merry from Lord of the Rings, so I had to check it out. It began a journey that last 6 years... ending last night. I was speechless last night, but now I have plenty to say.
First off... it's the best ending possible for a show that kept killing off my favorite characters. What I couldn't have in life, I had in death... the reuniting of my ships.
My Jack/Kate heart was thrilled when they finally said I love you to each other again and kissed. "I've really missed you," she told him later. I wonder how her life went after that... not knowing if he was alive or dead on the island that he swore to protect.
My James/Juliet ship was met as I kept going: "He's going to the hospital to see Sun... he'll see Juliet, he'll see Juliet!!" It was an ending I was expecting... and loved every bit of it.
My Charlie/Claire ship was perfect. "This is the most important concert of your life." Indeed... spotting Claire in the audience, and then finally seeing her and Aaron. That was my greatest happiness right there. I actually ran out of the room during commercial to tell my sister (who hasn't seen Lost since season 3). She was trying to sleep... I was too excited to let her.
Rose and Bernard were so sweet... and Vincent! I expect they lived out happy lives on the island under Hugo's capable watch. I'm glad someone was there so that Jack did not have to die alone.
My not-so-happy.... I wanted Jack and Kate to have more time together in this life. Happily on the island. But, I'll take what I can get. *grin*
My question: Obviously, Faraday and the like are not ready to go... souls waiting to pass. So... who is David then since Jack and Juliet never had a kid?
