With "Lost" ending in three weeks, I just got to ranting about it in my head and thought I'd post. 'Cause "Lost" is my favorite show and I am pissed at it this season or as I've come to call it the: 'Locke, Jack, Kate, stupid Hatch' season.
Oh, how I miss the days of season one! The show has really lost focus this season. They are spending way too much time on that hatch, Locke, Kate, and Jack. They are ignoring other characters and plots: Sun, Jin, Hurley, Claire, Charlie, etc and anything to do with them. They have brought new characters on, only to ignore them: Eko, Ana, and Libby. They have written characters one way one episode and one way the next. Etc, etc, etc.
And they really don't seem to be listening to fan reaction, at all. Fans say: 'Hey, what...' or 'We hope....' and the writers go the other way with that storyline. I really think the writers need to put down the crack pipes and take a look at the falling ratings.
Honestly, this season has been so boring. During the first three episodes, it was like the same hatch scenes over and over, just from someone else's POV. I was just sitting there screaming: "MOVE ON! WE GET IT!" It was like they were trying so hard to be edgy and cool, that they forgot the points of the series and the plots and characters of season one.
As for the new characters. I feel awful for them. Eko seems so cool, but we hardly know him. Libby seems like she would be really interesting, but we hardly know anything about her. Ana has hardly gotten any development and is bascially 'tough chick who killed Shannon'.
Which just makes it so much worse with all the rumors about Ana and/or Libby dying this season. Did they really bring them on, just to kill them?
I really hate to say it, but: I could see Locke, Jack, and Kate being the only three to make it to the end. If only because the writers seem to be soo in love with them and their same old daddy and 'I can do this. I have control.' issues.
