The End...LOST, no more

For me it all started during some serious cold in April 2005. I watched the pilot of LOST on German TV one or two days ago (the bald headed guy was dubbed using Cpt. Picards voice...again...), since I thought it might be an interesting show I had already downloaded about 15 episodes over the last few months...
To be honest, I wasn't that hooked after the German-dubbed pilot, but decided to use the time I had to lie in bed for something meaningful and started watching another episode of LOST...that was around 10pm...then came another episode, and another,...I finished at 6am and ~10 episodes later...
I was hooked!!!

For the next five years, I was looking forward to every new episode of LOST...and even more to every season finale or premiere. LOST became even more interesting, after I got my HDTV...better than watching a movie.

There have been so many moment LOST moved me or left me sitting on the couch with my mouth open. The first flash forward...the opening and explosion of the hatch...Locke in a coffin...Locke alive again...1977...the bomb(s)...and most of the flash sideways....

Yesterday it left me crying, yeah LOST, welcome to my list of TV shows of which I finished watching the finale crying. STAR TREK-TNG, Babylon5, Six Feet Under and NipTuck...seems like a good neighborhood...But honestly, [Spoiler (mark text to read):] how fucking awesome was the last scene, Jack lying down to die, Vincent running towards him, lying down next to him, the ajira-plane flying away...and finally Jack's eye closing...still giving me the shivers...

And, yeah, there is a shitload of question still unanswered...but hey, this means we can discuss and theorize for the rest of our lives ;)
Also, there is some serious gap left for novel and maybe another movie, I would be really looking forward to something like that.
Oh, I want the complete series on BluRay!!! Birthday...in five months...remember it ;)

If this is really the end, seems like It is time to let go...
