So okay - am I the only one freaked out by the end of the season finale? That show gets better and better and has a way of keeping me on the edge of my seat while I'm yelling at the TV screen. Let's hope they don't 'jump the shark' and ruin it. I'm dying to see what happens next.

I always wait for it to come out as a season DVD set and then watch it as a mini series, easier to keep track of who's who, what's what and where's where. (If that's possible) no commercials!
So please post spoiler warnings if you post any season 3 stuff!!!!!

I agree. It was fantastic. Something definitely to talk about until the show returns in February. I can't wait for the Season 3 dvd to come out.

Wasn't bad at all. Thing is, I found that this season dragged so much I was about ready to shoot myself and be done with it. I suppose the last few EPs kinda injected a bit more life into it all. I don't know. They just get so wrapped up in themselves that I get to a point where I really don't care, y'know. But yeah, I'll tune in for next season, at least for the beginning of the season.

do.

*spoiler alert*

Can't wait to see what happened to Charlie. Although he's died once before and also the first season ended with someone getting shot (Sawyer) so he could live. Did anyone else wonder why Desmond had been getting visions of his death then right before he was about to die - he didn't. Weird huh? So probably means he didn't die. But this show has proven they don't mind killing off a big character for the storyline.

I think it was Sawyer in the casket personally. Or Locke. But since Jack assumed Kate would be there - I think its Sawyer.

I want to know what the deal was with Locke killing that woman in front of everyone. I can't see him doing that unless she was someone really evil but I can't imagine what it could be. Although Sawyer and Locke seemed to have crossed a line where they aren't afraid/unwilling to kill.

My guess that the person in the casket is Sawyer too. He doesn't really have any friends or family who would be there. Plus when Kate was saying why would she be there, it felt like they had another falling out. My friend thinks that the person in the casket could be Juliet but I don't think thats the case.
Over on e online I read (and watched) this interview with Dom and he said his character was dead. I hope it turns out he isn't (though it seems unlikely). Charlie and Claire were my favorite ship and I don't want that ship to die!

This season was the first season where I grew to like Kate. Before she was way too Mary Sue for me but this time she was slightly less self centered and cocky. Plus there was some other female to hate aka Juliet. I hate the way Jack always seemed to include someone (first Kate, then Juliet) in every decision he made. He's such a wimp IMO. I still love Sayid and Sawyer over Jack but Desmond, Charlie and Hurley continue to improve each season. Its a great cast. Now that they've toned down a bit on Kate and Jack being the 'stars' it seems like the rest of the people have gotten a better chance to show themselves including Jin, Sun and Claire plus the three guys (Desmond, Charlie, Hurley). I'm very glad Walt and Michael are gone though. The only ones that have left that I miss are Hurley's girlfriend - because he was so cute about her - and Ecko. He was just really cool and added something to the show. Boone wasn't bad I guess and Shannon was starting to get less irritating but I'm glad Michael and his son are gone. They were annoying most of the time.

***** SPOILERS *****

I was just talking to my brother about this. He has a hi-def TV and checked out the obit frame x frame and in zoom. He said the name was legible and not one of the main characters. In fact, it was no one we have ever heard of so, of course, I forgot it immediately .

I have no trouble believing Charlie is dead, sacrifice being a main theme of the show, but do think it's a shame, and ironic since he and Evangeline Lilly were just doing the chat show circuit in the States promoting the renewal of the show's contract.

There were several times this season when I came close to not watching any more - the whole Dad-in-the-box bit, being the most egregious - but I love the mysteries they've now introduced:

Who is Richard and why doesn't he seem to age?
Who are "the original inhabitants of the Island"? as Ben refers to them.
Jacob: WTF?
The reappearance of Spectral Walt.
The fact that Mikhail might be better named Rasputin (in that he can't be killed).
Who was Naomi?
And what is up with Locke?
And, if what we saw in the finale was the future, how come Jack kept referring to his father?

I'm intrigued; they got me back!
