That's right. But the general idea is still there; there is an end in site.

The Sci-Fi geek in me loved the season 4 episode I left off with (The Constant), which was a great stand-alone sci-fi concept story. The other four eps so far were just stuff thrown at you, and new characters thrown in seemingly just to fill air time with more available backstories.

I'll finish Season 4, since I started it. But if Season 5 ends without the series ending, I will not be watching any more seasons until the series bloody well ends!

Twin Peaks and X-Files were two shows I LOVED that led nowhere despite pretentions to the contrary. Won'T Be fOOleD AgAIn!

As was said, season 5 will end without an ending. Next season is the pre-ordained season end. So while there is no closure yet, there is a firm promise of closure.

Ok, well since I wouldn't be starting Season 5 till Season 6 begins, it should be pretty well known by then if that's gonna be Season Last of Lost.

Twin Peaks is nothing like Lost....I mean, yeah, they both have Characters named Cooper......

and Hurley

and Desmond

and Sarah

and Benjamin

and Annie

and Bernard

But that's it........Lost has the Black Rock which is clearly different from the Black Lodge.....

And a one eyed man is nothing like a bar called One Eye Jacks....

And even though Lost has a guy named Jacob who is obsessed with an Island and TP has a guy named Jacoby who is obsessed with an Island doesn't mean the shows are similar....

And I really don't want to have to get into the differences between dwarves and hobbits....at least I shouldn't have to

Actually, Iacobi (hence Jacob) is Latin for James.

Seeing Hurley carrying a guitar case, my money is on Charlie coming back to tell him to catch the plane.

Jack said, "It's weird, I almost think John needed me to read this." Weird? WEIRD?! Two word. SMOKE MONSTER! Jack, you are no longer allowed to call something "weird".

I'm thinking that the flight crew on that plane are freaking out over several people (and a body) vanishing in mid flight.

So many questions, though.

But have they really vanished from the flight? Or are they on the plane and on the island?

I want next week's episode now!
