I loved the episode, though I don't think Lost deserves to have two season finales JUST because they take lazy breaks to introduce new crap shows.
You know, Groundhog's Day was brilliant. And two hours. If I had to watch similar scenarios over and over and over again for 24 episodes, even with Bill Murray, I'd shoot myself. Daybreak is a drama and does not star Bill Murray. Granted, I'd probably just wake up all over again and have to watch Daybreak all over again and have to shoot myself all over again, endlessly, until I figured out another way.....
But back to Lost, I think Kate was too distraught to be thinking straight, and it really seemed like her screaming about not being able to leave him was just a tongue tied way of trying to tell him that she wasn't sure any of them could leave, period. If I'm wrong, it still doesn't bother me much.
As for the new people, maybe they'll die soon, just like all the other new people they brought on last year. Bernard should get a medal just for being alive. Man, would have been so much cooler if they brought Rose and Bernard along for the Eko death ride.
