This sums up my feelings perfectly (thanks for typing for me!) I wish I had never watched the final season. If I ever do a rewatch, I'll skip the final season.Those of us on the side that we didn't like it, its not that we didn't understand it. I understood it quite well. And it wasn't just the last episode that I didn't like, but the whole last season, when the show we were watching for all those years became a moot point. But we've been over it a thousand times.
I'd rewatch (and have tried a couple of times and never gotten past the first few episodes of S1, I end up watching stuff that I've never seen before first), and look for clues that try and make sense of the last season.This sums up my feelings perfectly (thanks for typing for me!)

I hated the final season but liked the sideways aspect. Great to see the band back together again. It did not harm or diminish the prior seasons, rather it enhanced them and let us savor the relationships one last time.So are people saying they didn't like the flash-sideways in the final season? Because if it were up to me, I'd get rid of most of the on-island stuff from the final season and keep the flash-sideways.
Yep, this. I've said, if the last season was a separate SERIES, I might have liked it, but in context it marginalized everything that happened before.I hated the final season but liked the sideways aspect.

Why I hated the final is that after years they suddenly introduced 2 clowns who made the 1st several years pretty close to irrelevant.
how? The whole series was moving toward "who is Jacob and what is the Island?" And that's where it ended.I hated the final season but liked the sideways aspect.

LOL, the ending was terrible.Lost was awesome and the ending was awesome.
Why would you follow this thread at all? It's been 7 years.why keep following a thread about the ending of a show that you didn't enjoy?
Network TV still wants 20+ episodes a season with a show running a few years longer then it should. Premium cable, and streaming services, do a better job working with the producers. Fewer episodes a year. It's OK to stop when you think you've finished telling the story. Even today. Shows like Quantico would be better served, JMO, as one and done.I point to Leftovers as an example of Lindelof learning his lesson...it was a show that, while there was a big mystery in the plot, did not treat that mystery as central to the show itself. And then he went ahead and underpromised the ending (i.e., lowered expectations for closure rather than raised them, and then gave more closure than expected).

Precisely my reaction. I bought Blu-Ray of all but the last season on sale on Amazon figuring I could savor the series time and again. But after the writers went with the two mentally challenged brothers, I've never watched an episode.The main disappointment I had with Lost is... in earlier seasons I was looking forward to rewatching it for the second time with all sorts of knowledge about the meaning behind things like smoke monsters, numbers, white horses. After the last season and finale, I never once thought of watching another episode of Lost ever again.
Why bother? The show creators punched the viewers showing our interest was futile.I rewatched with my kids and loved every episode of thE rewatch. I recommend letting go of the hate and enjoying the show again.
Last year, I re-watched with my kids...crazy binge watching....6 seasons in a few months!I rewatched with my kids and loved every episode of thE rewatch. I recommend letting go of the hate and enjoying the show again.
Totally agree....seeing it a second time all the way through, especially in binge mode, made a lot of things come together. I was good with the ending the first time, but agree that it is a bit more satisfying after a rewatch where all of the early seasons are still fresh in mind.It was a heck of a lot of fun to go back and rewatch the whole series after actually knowing the story. A lot of things that confused me before made a lot more sense. I even found the ending much more satisfying after a complete rewatch than the first time.
I'm glad I have the DVD set, but I was watching on Netflix because of better resolution.
Now that LOST is on Hulu I can just click it instead of pulling out a DVDI was sad about losing LOST from Netflix because as said, it was easier to just click it on there then pull out a dvd. …
