LOST: Starting Over.

After watching the finale of LOST last night- I feel a deep yearning to start back at episode 1 and reevaluate each character once more. I only got into LOST in early March, where I watched all 6 seasons in a matter of 3 months- as opposed to 6 years.  My relationship with the show was considerable more intimate as a result of this. The fine details can  fall into the recesses of your memory when you spend 6 years on a task.

So, was Jack Shepard the only real survivor of the Oceanic flight 815 crash? Was the entire series his personal delusion of purgatory? Did the plane carrying Claire, Sawyer, Kate and company crash back onto the beach or did they make it off the island? Perhaps their plane did crash but one person survived and is stuck on the island with Ben and Hugo. Is it Sawyer, Kate, Claire, Lapitas or Miles? Were the footprints in the sand one of theirs or were they suggesting that Jack crawled off into the woods as the sole survivor and died looking for help after the Oceanic flight 815 crashed? I’m still pleasantly  confused by the final episode- is this what the directors wanted us to feel? I feel that gave each of us an opportunity to theorize and fabricate our own personal interpretations of how it all ends; aside from the obvious.

Looks like I will be starting from episode 1 all over again.
