However much I hated the direction it went in and some of their stupid decisions, those first three seasons are still some of the best TV ever made. I have to give them that.

I loved the first couple of Seasons but the rest was all crap used to drag it out for as long as it was bringing the money in plus the ending was unbelievably stupid

they basically ended it the exact same way as they'd planned to from day one except everyone already guessed what that was going to be so they added in some stupid alternative reality crap so that it's not the same but it really is

Spoiler:

What do you mean? Purgatory? Everyone had speculated near the start that the Island itself was purgatory, which it wasn't. I guess the flash-sideways was similar to it, but not the exact same and definitely not the Island.

It was terrible by the end. I detest season 6.

But the last half of season 3 up to that flash forward. Brilliant arc.

Spot on.
Spoiler:

They threw in the flash sideways stuff to make it different and because they'd had the characters get off the island and stuff so it could no longer be that they were dead from the beginning. But had it ended before season 4 they'd have been dead the whole time.


In fact, I might watch 'The Man Behind the Curtain' tonight. Not seen it for years.

I'd bet my life that originally the Island was purgatory but because everyone predicted that straight away they had to change it a bit, also because they had to drag the whole thing out as well because they wanted to cash in

Spoiler:

Maybe, but I'd like to think they'd know how that'd have been too obvious. They had always known the actual final shot of the show anyway (Jack's eye closing), and I don't really see how that itself could fit with the Island being purgatory, unless they had to die to move on from it or something.

Was the network that wanted to keep it going as well, I think the creators had planned for 5 seasons and the network for 8, so they ended up coming with the compromise for 6.

Spoiler:

Personally, i think the Island itself being purgatory would have been a better ending anyway, obvious or not. Just because something is a little obvious doesn't mean it's bad or that writers should change it imo. I would have thought that you'd have to die in purgatory to move on, once you'd graduated or whatever

Graduated.

I always thought that's what the smoke monster was about. It decided when you were ready to move on to whatever came afterwards.

Yeah, I remember the episode count was reduced so that they could spread the remaining episodes over more years.
