I've been on vacation, so I just had a chance to read this thread. I loved the finale. I thought the ending was phenomenal. My heart was literally racing through that whole scene with Christian and Jack. It was incredible. It was everything I could of hoped for with an ending to this show. I shed tears a couple times during the 2 and a half hours.
Also, whomever had Vincent lay down next to Jack as he was dying should be given an Academy Award (or whatever the TV one is) just for getting that in. I love dogs, so watching that scene was pretty emotional for me.
I will admit the ending confused me. Reading the posts in here clarified a lot for me. At first I thought everyone died when the plane crashed and the whole series was just the island giving everyone a 2nd chance to correct some things or to finish unfinished business. The reason I thought this was because they showed the plane crash during the credits, but without any human soul there. So I was like, "wtf, did everyone die right there?"
So was the afterlife just Jack's afterlife? I really have to watch the episode over. Jimmy Kimmel showed that scene in the first episode of the season when Rose told Jack "It's ok to let go now." And he said that's where Jack passed on. Makes sense I guess
Anyway, looking back, I don't think there will ever another show that will capture my heart quite like this one. It just had so much depth to it and really made you think. From the character stories to the mysteries of the island to the action and adventure. It was a hell of a journey
I knew this show was going to be something special six or seven years ago when I watched the pilot and it has lived up to all my expectations.
