LostI have definitely saved the best for last. It was during this last season...season 5...the penultimate season...that Lost took over the number 1 spot in my mind as "Best TV Show...Ever." That is the place that was formerly occupied by Millennium (starring the great Lance Henrickson, along with Terry O'Quinn, who also happens to be a major character in Lost).
This past season was about finally learning some answers to those nagging questions, some of which have been hanging around since season 1 ("What the heck is the smoke monster?" or "What lies in the shadow of the statue?" for instance). I won't reveal any answers here as some people may not have seen all or any of the season yet and I wouldn't want to be a spoiler.
Let's just say that surprises were frequent. Answers were forthcoming. Practically no one is safe. And the end leaves you longing for more...as a great show should. With one more season to go, I do hope that they are able to tie up all the loose ends and end the story in a way that is fun, satisfying and that leaves a few questions still to ponder. If they could leave us wishing for a sequel, that would suit me fine! If you haven't seen any of Lost before now...well, get started! The first 4 seasons are out on DVD already and season 5 should be out in November or December, which should give you just enough time to finish everything before the last season begins airing in January 2010.
