[SydneyK]

I haven't watched JKL from last night (couldn't stay awake that late!), so even though I saw the finale, I feel like I won't be completely in-the-know until I've watched that. (As if there's ever a completely in-the-know when it comes to LOST.)

That said, I'm happy with the finale. I had heard that it wouldn't be wrapped up in a nice little package, and that it would require/allow the audience to make their own determinations. So, I guess I had an idea of what would (or, better, what wouldn't) happen. I feel badly for everyone who was wanting a precise explanation of what the island is/was, what the rules were, how long had a protector been in place, etc... The show was always about its characters, and the finale was no different. Like I said, I'm happy with the way it ended. I'll miss it, but I'm glad it's over.
