Amusingly, I enjoyed Lost and thought the finale was all right upon first viewing, but now after seeing VM, my opinion of Lost has dropped. There's more going on in one ep of VM than almost any 3 Losts combined.
Wesley: We were fighting on opposite sides, but it was the same war. Fred: but you hated her…didn't you? Wesley: It's not always about holding hands.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

I enjoyed Lost until the last ep. But completely agree on the last sentence there.

I don't have a hate-on for Lost like some people. I see its flaws and don't care because I still enjoy what it gives me.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
I'm choosing to decide that this is wrong like a wrong thing.
And I third the BAH!

Well, the performers are still good, and there's a lot of excellent acting on display. But I've completely lost all respect for the narrative (and those crafting it), and with Fury gone I don't have much hope for improvement next season.

I don't think anyone really cares as long as it works.
If FOX really has passed on renewal, does this mean that Tim's development deal with FOX has come to an end?

THE INSIDE never forgets the baggage it burdens the guest characters with, and there's always the certainty at fade out that these people go on with the horrors they've witnessed etched on their souls.
I agree with that. You do get the sense of lingering aftereffects from the events of the episode.

Tim's deal is with 20th, not FBC. I'm not sure when it's up for renewal.
