Please Note – I will not be spoiling anything for you; this does not contain any spoilers…
We all have been waiting for this for a long long time and what a fantastic start to the Final and most anticipated season of al. The season where we (hopefully) will get all the answers we want…
Firstly id like to start of by saying how glad i am that i went to egypt this past winter and learnt a great deal about egyptian mythology, after watching the season 6 premiere so many things made sense to me that i would have only had if i had either studied mytholgoy or gone to egypt and lived its history through the storytelling of travel.
Lost may not have started by telling us all the answers we wanted well it is the season premiere and i dont think any of us expected all the answers, we do understand about the aftermath of the season 5 finale and it was quite beautifully done. i did not expect the way it turned out but i was satisfied with it.
The storyline of jacob and his nemisis by far was the key point of the show and just left me in awe of what JJ Abrams has done, although after watching it and understanding that JJ Abrams is not the father of the storyline as he has a clear knowledge of egyptian mythology and has taken that as a base for Lost. We should be learning more about the mythology and how it is linked with the stories in the episodes to come one hopes.
Secondly i would like to add how much fun it was to see my favorite characters back on screen wow nostalgia, suspense, heartbreak and adrenaline everything was on full spirit throughout the 2 hours that was the season opener i am pretty sure ABC will be thrilled by the ratings and im sure it has beaten every other show on the timeslot.
I also feel really bad for White Collar a witty new drama about a convicted mastermind thief Niel Cafferty who starts working for the FBI. The show White Collar which is still young to our television sets on the USA network had just taken a fall break and comeback only to go up against Lost oh boy talk about david vs goliath.. i like white collar but i feel they should not have taken a break and continued through the fall and taken a break now. They even changed the day that it airs on from friday to tuesday are they trying to get rolled over or what??
NCIS and NCIS LA .. i think NCIS would have still roped in some ratings being a top show and again one of my favs on CBS and NCIS LA the spinoff starring LL COOL J and Chris O donnel would have taken a serious head going up against the second episode of lost. the show is new and hasnt really fit well in my opinion as NCIS the original series (also a spinoff of JAG) does.
Lastly Lost’s episode got me thinking oh god its the beginning of the end, Heroes has been so dissapointing of late and so has Fringe that ive given up good drama series with a fictional sci-fy twist that i dont know what i will watch once LOST is done. Its truly an end of an era, i remember being so addicted to LOST when the first series started my friend Kabir and I would be watching episode after episode into the wee hours of the night when my mom would literally have to throw him out of my house.
“This Message has been playing on a loop for 16 years!”
That line was the line that hooked us in hooked us in so bad that after six long years we are still waiting to understand and comprehend answers from the very first episode. during this long six year saga my friends and i have had equally as much by discussing the meanings that lost has provided us with, the clues, the answers and why we cant stop watching the show it has been almost as much fun as actually watching the show.
Being a producer i also wanted to state the fact that it is so hard to shoot a show like this the continuity needed is unbelievable the 6 year long script needed to be finished before they even shot the first episode i would imagine because of the time travel twist, i am sure they must have shot so much during the first few scenes of ocenic flight 815 as new shots keep emerging thoughout the other seasons.. the flashbacks are so well done and they link the story togther like no other show before it and the cliff hangers hearing that THUD of LOST and the Graphic has just been engraved in my mind if i ever hear that sound and graphic play anywhere at the end of any show im going have a chill run up my spine…
After the Series Premiere of lost i had just one word to say, and six years on after the series premiere of the final season of LOST i have the same freaking word still in my head ……… “WHAT??”
heres to the Final Season and a great Season Premiere Bravo and well done LOST!!!
Cheers Guys
