I can't remember a story starting so well and getting to what it is right now (fifth season). It was believed (at leas by myself) to be The Series from which future wanna-be scriptwriters, directors or producers should look upon when starting a new project. But now, it must be seen as what exactly you don't have to do if you want to create a compelling story or at least a bearable plot.
As the title implies, the story has come to a non-sense, making meet bizarre phenomenons that characters try to explain with huge answers which turn out to be other unsolved mysteries, and so the story has been going forth and back until the latest episodes.
Another aspect of the show that has become really irritating are the characters'attitudes. Sure, they are lost, and the situations are extreme, but this way of dealing with matters killing each other trying to find answers to unrelated questions with the main plot, really gets on my nerves. But still, since one of character who has the answer or is looking for it dies the issue remains inconclusive, and the unsolved mystery stays at stake for the next episode, where more revenge will be fulfill. And all this just because Jack was told by the invisible man that is true father was (wait for this one) himself because he left pregnant his own mother when he traveled through time and met her at the Hilton Hotel resort, just on the other side of the island, but wait, he still hasn't done it, he can still change the future and annihilate himself by letting the aliens abducting him for the time being This is the style of Lost, everyone can complicate the story by adding new characters and stories, but can the scriptwriters give it a true end that will save, at least a bit, the series?
And at last but not least, the actors are really great. The production owes them so much. They are the ones who really keep the show alive and me seeing it.
