Bwahaha.
Oh, and I take back what I said about the inhabitants of cooperatively-created limbo. There were so many side characters from the Island there this season that it's obviously a catch-all limbo for ex-Islanders, and not at all created merely by people close to one another.
Of course, CP is right that the show could have taken place anywhere, and I suppose I'm a bit disappointed that the Island didn't figure into anything but "stuff happened." But I've felt along that the story was just a bunch of stuff happening, cool stuff meant to perplex and confound and entertain and intrigue - - but never with any real "answers" or "solutions" ever conceived by the writers. It was all a fun detour of questions and mysteries taken from the limbo story first being told, and finally returned to at the end.
I both enjoyed it and get to be smug about it. I'm a happy ex-Lostian.
So now I'll sip my leftover bottle of Dharma water, and ponder the show for the rest of the day. Of course, Dharma labels were on 90% of the foodstuffs last night, including dozens of different, individually (re-)wrapped chocolates. Everyone was handed an Oceanic Flight 815 boarding pass upon arrival, and their names were crossed off from a wall which listed all the anticipated guests. I was reluctant to eat any of the biscuits with The Numbers carved into them, but eventually consumed #8, and I think #15 was left over at the end of the night - if that portends anything. The Clucky's chicken was ultra-yummy, the costumes were adorable, and the company grand. Thanks again to H & T for a wonderful send-off to this great show which has annoyed me and entertained me for such an epic run.
