LOST, (spoiler alert)

I have finally finished LOST and I have to say it was the best TV series that I have ever watched. Yes its 2011 and the LOST pilot aired in 2005 but I was only 8 when this TV show became popular. The  first time I watched LOST was during summer 2010 and I had too watch the first 2 seasons on my laptop because I didn’t have the seasons on DVD. One of the things that I didn’t realize before I started LOST was that It had a sort of mystical and spooky aspect of it, especially in season 1. Adding to that thought I really liked  the beginning when Sayid found Rousseau's broadcast on the radio because this was really the beginning to all of there future problems and the events that would occur. Something that I still don’t understand is the polar bear that was on the Island that Sawyer killed with the gun. Maybe it just was something in season 1 to make the Island seem more mystical without showing to much.  My favorite characters have to be Charlie, Hurley and Richard. Hurley is awesome because he is rich but has the right mindset to help others. He is the one that comforts and helps people when they are down and he is also the one that cracks jokes throughout the whole series. Charlie is also one of my favorite characters because he is recovering Heroin addict and even though there was a huge stash of heroin found on the island he successfully didn’t  start taking it again and stopped all together. Another reason why I like Charlie is that even though many people thought he was a just a drug addict he only cared about helping others, you see this in season 3 where he is the one that tells Desmond "its not Penny's boat". Richard is also one of my favorite characters because he is just cool. While everybody is wearing ripped shirts and jeans, Richard is wearing  dress pants and a nice shirt and he always knows what to do. I really felt bad for Jack and Sawyer at the same time during season 5 because Jack convinces everyone that they should set off the bomb and this ends up killing Juliet and this was Sawyers first real successful relationship. When the "Flash sideways" start happening this added another huge part to the series. Even though it wasn’t actually happening in the real world it still showed all of the characters and how they would act in a perfect life. Many people don’t like the ending of LOST and feel that I didn’t tie up enough loose ends but I really enjoyed it and thought that it was the perfect ending to the Series. The main message of the END was that you always need friends and that all of the survivors and the people that were taken to the Island were all missing something in there life and the island gave them what they needed, Friends.
