Fuck Lost. “It’s better to never reveal the mystery!” That was the guiding principle, to just cake on mystery and keep audiences following like a laser pointer and a cat. I’m an advocate for free speech, but if someone made a law outlawing that kind of storytelling, it might cause my resolve to waver. At least Stephen King will right an ending, even if it’s the third deus ex machina in a row, you’ll get an ending!
Totally. That’s also how I felt about Lost.
