But only with the complete series? Not with the season 6 dvds?

[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

I guess? Aka "I will look for it on YouTube."
Or Netflix.

My recap of the Lost series finale, episode 6-17, "The End" is now up at TWoP. Read, grade, enjoy, remember, let go, namaste, my candy bar's stuck, son of a bitch, I'm dead.
Ugh. My huge recap killed the thread. I hope at least Seska skims the last few pages. I included a non-religious analogy that I hope will help quell your disappointment.
Cindy, on the contrary; reading your recap made me want to watch the episode again, so I bought it from iTunes and watched it today.
And, I must say, when Desmond was pulling the cork out of the pool in the glowy mystical cave, I never once thought tampon, but now I will never be able to NOT think that. Thanks to you.
See -- one person CAN make a difference!
I want to post before I read the recap.
I'm with those in the "emotionally satisfying, intellectually dissatisfying" camp. I pretty much feel like six seasons and I still don't know what the hell the island is all about.
There are so many questions left unanswered, for example, if Jacob and Esau (Samuel?) can't get off the island, how did Jacob get off the island to touch his candidates? Just one question of many.
I would have liked to have seen a discussion on evil as it relates to the island and Smokey. Evil very much exists in the world, so how is it contained? What is the nature of purgatory/flash sideways?
For those who think the island was purgatory, they need to rewatch the pilot (which I did OnDemand after the fanale). I point to Jack. The first day, he's in a suit, and when he runs through the bamboo, we see a white canvass sneaker hanging from a branch. It's clean and fairly new. In the fanale, Jack is in jeans and tee shirt, and the sneaker is still there, but is now dirty and worn. Like it's been hanging there for six years or so.
I think only three years or so. Island-Present was 2007 by the end, I believe.
if Jacob and Esau (Samuel?) can't get off the island
Where was it ever stated, or even implied, that Jacob couldn't leave the island?
I think only Smokey was trapped. Hell, Jacob was the one who made it that way, if I recall.
