"I'm sure the US will not win the World Cup this time around but 2018 or 2022…"

I guarantee that isn't close to being one of the big twists, if indeed there are any.

The show never pretended not to be southern gothic pulp. In fact it relished in it. I have no idea why its critics thought otherwise.

She's a decent enough actress, I'm just more curious about the Molly love given she's basically the same as her film counterpart. At least Lester is written and acted as more of his own person.

He/she did say 'TD's quality' in that sentence, though. Because TD's word of mouth quality is what made it a hit.

Better police work??

True Detective. Also seems a bit unfair to ask this when Fargo *just* finished.

If you want to pounce on something, it could be the bit when he says "and he seems out of his league and outmatched, and he snaps, literally." Lester did not literally snap.

I enjoyed both but don't really feel the need for more of either. I'm totally down with the self-contained miniseries format, just keep more originals coming.

I've said it above, but I'll say it again as it's on topic: Jack was crap 'man of science'.

"I remember an interview in the first season where Lindelof said the show
would always be about Jack vs. Locke, in some aspect, and that really
bore out throughout all six seasons."

I'm continually surprised at how popular they are on here. Whatever weird comic relief thing the writers and actors were going for it didn't work for me at all.

I was hoping Lester would somehow get away with it. Not that I wanted Molly to die, but the end mimicked the movie a bit too much IMO.

Show me someone who says they enjoyed a flight from London to New Zealand via LAX and I'll show you a liar.

"By far the most annoying part is someone of my height being jammed into those little seats for too long"

I don't find these guys particularly funny, but it's hard not to look at the way they treat the movie industry as their own personal playground and think 'fair enough'.

I did, and I agree with him/her. Well-crafted science-fantasy pulp is how I'd describe it. If we can talk about TV as art, there is no way this comes close to other, greater shows. But it *was* a pop culture phenomenon, so who cares I guess.

Agh, I just remembered that episode, in which smart characters have to be really dumb just to forward the plot.

Funnily enough I liked Sawyer straight away. It probably helped that before his hair grew really long (where for some reason other characters' didn't?) he was probably the most handsome man alive.

I thought season 5 and (especially) season 6 were so bad it was impossible to get too worked up over the actual ending. If anything the finale has become something apologists for those 2 years can say 'I know it was divisive, but gosh-darnit wasn't the build up great?'
