QFT. Heard a lot of good things about it though I've never watched. I am similarly happy that my favorite show, "The Shield", is going out on top and ending this season rather than waiting to be shot in the head by dumb storylines and dwindling audiences.

now that there's an end in sight, hopefully they'll start resolving some storylines.

also... I think Jack and Charlie are going to die before the end of the season.

well, I think Charlie's going to die... I'm just hoping that Jack dies :p I'm tired of all that love triangle BS, and Kate and Swayer are both hotter than him ;)

I agree with you. Why else would they have this announcement.


It's not working for me. I haven't watched one episode this season.
The icing on the cake was when they bumped it up to the 10:00 time slot.

I can't stay up late like I used to be able to do.

You must be one of the 7 people left in the free world that doesn't own a DVR. :D

i really hope if this is true it forces the writers to start answering some real questions about the island.... im tired of useless flashbacks.

This is one of the reasons i like jericho more than lost these days.

The problem with answer question is they are so random it is like someone did a fill in the noun, verb, etc story. No answer is going to make any sense at all.

This is why I quit watching. It seemed like nothing but a huge collection of loose ends.

OH yea no doubt about it. I switched to Heroes since 24 started this season. I can easily wait till Tuesday to watch 24. I used to have to watch both shows the night of, but heh...

I take it as good news too. Many shows are just cancelled and the story is left unfinished. Lost will have plenty of time to finish and finish right.
