Hey, I don't know if you're checking in here, but I just wanted to let you know we're still talking about the show even though I finished the review of the finale last week. I really liked what you had to say about Season 4 and Season 5 and I think you'd have some good insights for the final season as well. If you

I didn't remember making that point until you mentioned it, but I'm sure I did. I'll be looking at the Classic reviews again either before I start my rewatch, or as I go along, so I'll see it then.

I can't say I'm familiar with Freemasonry; although Lost goes deep with the literal and cultural references it hasn't really inspired me to look into topics like that.

"I'm willing to talk about LOST till my fingers fall off." Ditto.

Just a brief question on this reply…what kind of Island do you think it would have been with Jack in charge, and do you think maybe Hurley stays with him as 2nd in command (or co-2nd with Ben)? And what of Kate? I can't see her staying far away if she knows Jack's still there.

The End: I've been thinking a lot about this finale since I first started these reviews. What can one say to do it justice? Because it's not just about one episode, it's about the series as a whole. We, as an audience, were saying good-bye to something that was truly one of the great series of our time and

Sayid was always one of my favorites too, still is. The scene with Hurley in the Pilot is definitely a highlight. I always felt like Hurley was trying to cheer Sayid up when we saw them together, although Sayid had his moments (first thing coming to mind is Sayid enjoying Sawyer's troubles with the boar in Season

What They Died For: Only one episode left after this, and where that fact really started hitting me was in three scenes: 1. Jack waking up in the sideways at the start, 2. The credits rolling with the familiar Season 1 music as Sawyer watches the debris come in from the ocean, and 3. Desmond and Hurley taking Kate and

Re: Claire, this is a minor nitpick, but do you really think Kate had much time to talk to Claire while they were in the Hydra cages? To me, that was playing out in real time, so that group would have only been in there for a little bit. If she was going to apologize, maybe she did it on the boat or while they were

Across the Sea: First, a brief note…I'm going to try to keep this shorter, because I feel like I've gotten a little too recap-heavy in the past few reviews.

New angle: Les Chappell eats Powersauce bar - becomes world's greatest writer.

"Son, don't go up that mountain, you'll die up there, just like I did!"

Second.

I think Joe could win the game if he was a first-time player in one of the early seasons, like Australia. Substitute Joe for Colby and I bet he wins all the challenges that Colby did, and he wouldn't make the mistake of taking Tina to the end with him. Of course, I'm saying this with the hindsight of having seen all

I had Jeremy winning 6-4 if Kelley was in the final three, and I think that's probably how it would have played out. Assuming Kelley replaces Spencer in the top three, Kelley gets Abi, Ciera, and I'd say Joe and Spencer.

How about this for an idea…next season will be #32. So for #33 and #34, you could have 16 players for each, one from each of the first 32 seasons. Yes, you would have some players playing for the third time, but who wouldn't want to see a Joe, or a Malcolm, or even a Keith, again? If they're entertaining, and

Yeah, I'd love to see Wentworth get player of the season, but if it's fan voted, no way Joe doesn't win it.

Kelley proved to be a fantastic player and she should end up being remembered as one of, if not the, standout of the season. This was one the fans definitely got right.

Phillippines is a definite contender, as is Cagayan and the original. Maybe Micronesia with Parvati, Amanda, Cirie, and I think Natalie was the fourth, or Tocantins (JT, Stephen, Erinn, Taj) would be up there too.
