All Right.
For five years I have watched this show religiously. It's one of the few I haven't, at some point, gotten bored with and stopped watching. There were moments during fourth season I was tempted, but I didn't. Because I love Jennifer Garner, and Michael Vartan and...well, hell I love the whole damn cast.
But last night's finale?
Sucked the big one, imo. What a complete and utter letdown. Seriously.
There was absolutely NO reason to kill off Jack. I was fine with Tom's death, though it was kinda sad. I just never got attached to him. It didn't make me cry.
Loved Marshall. Loved the whole group working together again against Sloane--but I missed Weiss terribly and wish they'd have brought him back for the finale. The Francie flashback was a nice touch. The follow-through with Isabel building the tower was believable although very predictable. Saw it coming a mile away. As I did with Syd/Vaughn's son being named Jack. Knew that too. It was nice, though.
But...wtf did they have to kill off Jack?? Couldn't he have pretended to want to let Sloane help him, lay down in the pool of blood to heal and then shoved Sloane down the stairs and thrown the dynamite down after him?? Come on, you're going to tell me Jack's just going to bascially commit suicide? Puh-fucking-lease.
I'm glad Vaughn didn't kill Sark. I love Sark, I can't help it. The tie at the end was great--Syd's "Don't look at me, YOU'RE the one who let him go" to Vaughn was funny.
There was no need to have Irina be evil or die either. This is a character whom I grew to love during season 2 because while her motivations were never truly clear, she loved Syd and Jack. There was so much chemistry between Jen and Lena and they went and ruined it with the retarded revelation that IRINA HAS BEEN THE BIG BAD ALL ALONG. *eye roll*
JJ, you fucking blew this. This should have been an awesome series finale and instead it was more than a tad underwhelming and beyond believably unsatisfying. I'm seriously tempted to stop watching Lost now because I lost my faith in you. Blah. Just...blah. *gives finger*
no subject
Irena is the freakiest most determined woman on the planet, and I don't think she's pure evil. If she were pure evil, Sydney would have been dead years ago. She loved her daughter, and even though she tried not to, it totally destroyed her edge. She's wonderfully complicated. *hugs her*
