More TV Talk

Because I am completely confounded by last night's LOST finale (and still not ready to address the terrible feelings of loss I feel about the GILMORE GIRLS series finale) I want to post my feelings on the show and a few - there are really so many - of my questions. I just don't know what to make of it:

I’m actually glad I watched the show in a big catch-up rather than as it was airing because I am pretty sure I would not have been able to stick with it – they have pulled a lot of ridiculousness.

Yes, Jack is a whiny little bitch, but at least he finally told Kate he loves her rather than brooding over it for yet another season.

Yes, I don’t really like Juliet like most people, although I did love the book club episode when she was singing "Downtown"…so wonderfully bizarre.

I really liked the Hurley/Charlie dynamic and Charlie’s cute little “you all everybody” every once in a while when he wanted to remind us he was in Drive Shaft. I will miss his silliness. He SO didn’t have to die in that situation and it makes me mad that they think I am stupid enough not to question it. Why didn't he get out of the room and bar the door from the OUTSIDE!!??!

I think Desmond will make it to the end because he obviously needs to reunite with Penny.

So Walt wasn’t really there right, just projecting? And what I find hilarious and know they can’t help is that he is like 18 now and it has only been like a month since he left the island. Very funny.

I’m so sure that everything Ben has done, no matter how devious, will prove necessary and right in the end. He seems too evil to really be evil.

Oh, also, let’s talk about Locke killing that woman. Locke wouldn’t even kill his own sadistic, pig of a father and he so easily killed day player #2 (I can’t even remember her name)?

Plus, how does that eye patch guy ALWAYS live? What is his deal and will his accent ever improve?

And how about the guy with the Others (again, can’t remember his name) who wears too much eye liner and never ages?

Finally, WHO THE HELL IS JACOB???

Many other questions, but will I really care by next fall? BTW, it was really only supposed to be 2 more seasons but they stretched it to 3 to prolong my confusion. Thank you ABC.
