OK, there are no doubt lots and lots of things I could say about tonight's Lost, but there's only one thing I really want to say: ( a slightly spoilery outburst )
I just watched it, and I think we're going to see them all killed off one by one (or two) until Jack's the one left. I'm glad we have the AU people or I'd be really pissed off at this series for making me care about doomed characters.
They still have the AU people, and they can and will make it all right somehow. Or I will glare at them. :)
(I don't actually object to killing characters, which is a very good thing, if I'm watching this show. But it was a terrible anticlimax to Sayid's arc, and just too damned sad for Sun and Jin. But the existence of the AU folks gives me hope that even with damned near everybody dead, things will still work out for them somehow.)
I do believe the AU will turn out to be the real deal somehow, so I'm not too worried in that respect.
I don't actually object to killing characters, which is a very good thing, if I'm watching this show. I want to say "me neither," but it would be a bald-faced lie, so I settle for understanding that sometimes, you have to kill off people for a story to have impact. And feeling lucky that most of the people who died weren't my favourites
( ... )
Yeah, Sun and Jin have definitely been under-served lately, except in their AU episodes, and killing them off just when their story starts holding the potential to get interesting again is doubly unfortunate. Lapidus I feel less bad about in that respect, as he was always a secondary character, albeit one I really liked, so I hardly expected him to be developed more than he was.
Personally, I still wish they'd killed off Jack in the pilot, the way they apparently originally intended to. Now, that would have been brave!
Jin and Sun can't be dead...and neither can Sayid when he just did something heroic.
Sun and Jin deserve so much better, dammit! And as I was just saying above, I think it'd be a terrible anticlimax for Sayid. Wandering around like a zombie all season, and then blowing himself up? So, yeah, it can't be the end of their stories yet, surely.
Poor Crazy!Claire...they left her again!
I'll be interested to see how poor Crazy!Claire feels about Smokey after this, though.

Sigh. All I can say is, come on, alt!verse people! With the primary universe people are dropping like flies, it's all on you now. :)
Stupid Smokey.

No biscuit!
I mean, I'm not surprised that he would do something like this, but the fact that the PTB would leaves me pretty stunned. Really, Darlton, no biscuit!
