I think it's just so cool that they managed to make the fans cry their hearts out in this episode, then later we crying fans were joined by tears from Hurley, Kate, and Jack. Shows all of us share the same feeling of sadness for this episode. Desmond would have said, "I feel you brotha!"
ps: baru perasan bila baca review org lain, yg Sawyer sebenarnya yg trigger off the bomb by pulling of the wires tu. sebab tu meletup. kalau ikut cakap Jack kan senang...deggil!!
With just a few precious hours of Lost left before the Island drama fades to (Man in) Black on May 23, this week’s Entertainment Weekly pays tribute to the ABC show with Lost: The Complete Viewer’s Guide, a special package with everything you need to know to get ready for the epic finale. First up, an in-depth preview of the final episode. Our own Jeff “Doc” Jensen was on set for the last days of filming and shares intel from the Island, including what it was like to be there for all the tearful goodbyes. He also reveals teases for the final few episodes, finds out what the actors plan to do next, and suggests some possible Lost spin-offs to keep the franchise rolling.
But we’re just getting this mysterious, time-traveling party started. Next: a flow chart (guaranteed not to make your brain hurt) explaining how all the castaways are connected, which is followed by an oral history of how it all began — the making of the pilot episode of Lost. Show creators J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof, as well as the entire cast, share stories from the set of what would turn out to be the most expensive pilot in television history, and explain why it ended up being worth every single penny. We then provide handy dandy (graded) recaps of every single season, hook you up with a Lost A-Z Glossary, and take you on an eerie blast into the past as we host a gathering of some Lost souls who died before their time. Like we said, it’s everything you need to know to get ready for the finale. And then just a little bit more. It’s a package so formidable, in fact, that it could not even be contained to a single cover. Or two. Or three, even. Try 10! That’s right, 10! Each of our favorite Losties (Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Locke/Fake Locke, Ben, Claire, Hurley, Sun, Jin, and Sayid) gets their very own cover: Check back at EW.com soon for a look at all 10, then order ‘em all to complete your collection.

The Lost Good-Bye
Is it all just smoke monsters and mirrors? As Lost twists and winds to a finale, Jim Windolf finds the hit show's co-creator and producer focused on the only plotline that really matters. Mark Seliger photographs Matthew Fox, Josh Holloway, Evangeline Lilly, and their fellow castaways.

Lost's Castaways

Lost has been one of the highest-rated TV dramas since making its debut, in 2004, with a U.S. viewing audience that has ranged from 11 million to 23 million and a greater combined number of viewers tuning in from an estimated 160 countries around the world, but with its crazy sci-fi philosophy, head-scratching supernatural elements, and impossible-to-track plotlines, it's really a cult show at heart. Die-hard fans have learned the secret handshake, while casual viewers look in from time to time and pose questions like “Wait, did that guy just turn into smoke?”
The show belongs to Damon Lindelof more than anyone else. He is the only Lost co-creator who has had a major say in every episode from the J. J. Abrams—directed pilot onward. But even though he's the man more or less in charge of this wild beast, Lindelof suffers the same anxieties experienced by Lost devotees, who wonder, as the finale approaches, how it's all going to come out.
This is understandable, when you consider that Lindelof is the one who must bring closure to a series that started off simply enough, like a fictional Survivor, only to morph into a hairy show that has made room for time travel, an alternate universe, and more romantic entanglements than you'll find on a Telemundo soap opera.
Blogger Mike Ryan recaps every episode of Lost.
Lindelof says he dreams about Lost all the time: “The most common dream is we have produced an episode that is catastrophically bad, and we have got to figure out a way to fix it. There's a whole series of things that are very confusing to me, and I'm like, ‘Why did we even do this?’ There have also been dreams where I'm interacting with the actors, and there's a blurring of the line as to whether or not we're in the show.”
Lindelof and his fellow show-runner, veteran television producer Carlton Cuse, struck an unprecedented arrangement with ABC three years ago, when they persuaded network president Stephen McPherson to agree to a 2010 end date. This bold move was pretty much a necessity for a program in danger of frustrating fans who were rightly beginning to worry that they were being jerked around by plot complications meant to keep the show's main characters indefinitely stuck on a tropical island, like the gang from Gilligan's Island.
Supervised by Lindelof and Cuse, the show's writers work out of Building 23 on the Disney lot in Burbank, California. This is where I met with the two show-runners, in Cuse's office, as the series was winding down. That address may ring a bell with Lost geeks: in the sixth and final season each of the major characters has been assigned a significant number, with “23” corresponding to Dr. Jack Shephard, the reluctant hero played by Matthew Fox. Before Lost is done, it seems, one of the numbered characters (known as “candidates”) will likely inherit the magical island from a demigod named Jacob, who has apparently been watching over it for more than a century.
“I don't think we honestly believe we can make every single person happy with the ending.”
Lindelof, 37, is a jumpy man, balding, built like a rubber band. He's the flighty artist, tortured with doubt, bursting with ideas—while his main partner, Cuse, 51, plays the steady hand, the story technician, part amanuensis, part father figure.
“It's been mentioned to me that the only person my friends know who's more miserable than the characters on Lost is me,” Lindelof says.
However Lost ends, Lindelof and Cuse know they won't be able to please everybody. “We talked at great length about not wanting to do something that felt safe,” says Lindelof. “If people say, ‘Lost had one of the worst endings in the history of television,’ and they're still talking about it 30 years from now, personally speaking, I'd rather have that legacy than ‘It kind of fizzled out.’ ”
“I don't think we honestly believe we can make every single person happy with the ending of Lost,” says Cuse. “Nor should that be the goal.”
“It's very trippy to be in a scenario where you know that you are currently living the experience of making what will be the defining work of your creative life,” says Lindelof. “There is nothing I can do in my career after Lost is done that will move Lost out of the pole position in my obituary.”
For all its much-vaunted thematic and supernatural material, which the show's creators and fans refer to as “the mythology,” Lost has been a hit because of the deep focus on its characters. “We spend so much of our time just talking about the characters and talking about ‘What do the characters want?’ ” says Cuse. “The mythology is an overlay. For us, it's 10 or 15 percent of the show.”
“What we love about the characters on Lost is they all are very aware of what their problems are,” Lindelof says. “They're all stuck in these patterns of behavior. And the question of the show becomes: How does the island illuminate this pattern and create an opportunity for the character to stop it? That's what every human being is looking for: ‘I know what's wrong with me. How do I change myself?’ ”
Sayid tak kira bunuh diri kot, dia membawa lari bom utk menyelamatkan orang2 lain. Kalau macam Jack itu hari nak terjun jambatan tu yela bunuh diri sia2 je..
