The whole ending had me shook emotionally for months. When i sit back and think of it. I feel that way again. Its like i legit lost people who i never even met, who arent even real. Like im going through some bittersweet grief.

I think the reason people didn't understand the ending of Lost, or had a hard time wrapping their heads around it, was because Lost ended up turning out to be quite a spiritual series. Not necessarily religious, like Christian, or Muslim, or Buddhist, or anything. But spiritual, absolutely. And for a science fiction series to end on a spiritual note, especially one with purgatory, which is a concept deeply rooted in Catholicism, it frustrated alot of people. Because the world has become alot less spiritual the last few decades.

Me too. I loved the show. I watched the all 100 parts 3 times. I couldn't stop. The show was addictive, so good

Scene hits me different now that I’m a dad to a toddler.

I know I'm not the only man that hopes when he passes to the other side, his dad's there on the other side to let him know it's ok😔

1:22 It was one of the most heart breaking scenes to see her trip, helped by her love of life & yet he can't speak a word, to maintain a facade of keeping her sane & her version of reality intact (safe is already lost topic courtesy of Samaritan). The whole scene was the most cruel writer's delivery on Finch which was already difficult emotionally & driving the final nail on heart wrenching with tripping & steadying with no skin touch, only gloves & clothes as she will recognise his touch. Let's not forget this is the closest Finch has got to her after he is recovering in hospital after ferry incident. He is now closest to her in worst possible way & no reply for her thanks & this is the guy who avoids violence in any way, who has just pronounced the verdict "kill" first time in series for Reese to do if any harm comes to her (just before the bridge scene) here he is silently steadying her, full of emotions & sealed to lips all in all 10/10 writing & delivery

Emerson MADE this!!!!!!!

Did anyone else bawl their eyes out at the end?

They where Lost. Then they found each other. Like Jack said. "If we can't live together, then we're gunna die alone" Thankfully most of them managed to work together in some form and died together. It's so deep. So perfect. It's universal magic.

I love how Lost is not called that because they are lost on an island. It’s because they are all lost as people, and through the island, found their purpose. They found meaning in their lives. 😢

So sad when Jack realises he is dead!

She's such a daring soul. No risk, no gain, and she risked it all innumerable times, until the very end. She's a hero in her own way, only small minds cannot grasp the truth of this. And small minds abound, as always.

When you re watch this scene, I just don't understand how you don't get it? Ye there's maybe one or two plot holes, but it was a long 6 seasons.

Why is he only coming to peace with his death now in the safe landing/afterlife timeline (this one), when he has already accepted death and is about to die on the island? At which point on the island did this scene happen in his head?

As someone who worked with computers since the '70's, this series scared the hell out of me, lol...

Root really hates Finch in this moment. And at the same time, Root respects Finch more than anybody else. Person of Interest showed what an incredible show you can make with just a few extremely well written characters.

"And if you really need a mystery...find out if Scotty still doesn't know".

Whatever skills you had as an engineer, you drank away year's ago... Ouch. He still wrote an elegant backdoor to your system Finch, which went on to be your reason for getting up in the morning. When an ego is at play, people can be cruel.

More relevant now than it was when it aired!😊👍

Miss Shaw with a loaded gun is a very dangerous person!😮

Jack : I died too ….. 💔

How come it all ended in a church?

I love you, Dad. I love you too, son.

So, Did Jack die when the flashing light engulfed the island or he continued to live on in the island?

most people today are atheists and no longer believe in God, which is why the end of Lost is misunderstood. People prefer action to spirituality. This scene touches my soul, that's the main thing. "lost"

Looks like it would of been an okay series.

I know this video is old as dirt, but this is pretty obviously not a "Christian conversation" - I mean the stained glass window literally has symbols for the Muslim, Jewish, Doaist, Christian, and Hindu faiths on it. I guess people see what they want to see 🤷‍♂️

Lame show

Still brings me to tears after all these years. I’ll never not think of my brother who I lost 27 years ago when watching this scene. Powerful!

0:47 I had the same reaction. i tho he would live

This ending is so easy to understand idk why people say it’s confusing or misinterpret it. You just need a fraction of emotional intelligence to get it lol

You mean it was a purgatory all along? Sigh.

Fusco the man

My favorite series finale ever❤

Biutiful

I enjoyed this ending when it aired but being in my 40s now it hits different.

They all died *eventually* that's important, it means the island was real and everything that happened (except flashsides) was true. Now the island must be protected, because it holds reality altering properties that can create time travel and make electro magnetic pulls so powerful it can implode the island itself and pull in everything near it like a vacuum! The plug in the island's heart is there to stop the island from destroying everything around itself. Jacob and Black Smoke are ancient god-like entities meant to protect the island, but Black Smoke got bitter and resentful of the island, himself turning into a monster that wished to escape the island and take over the earth. These guardians are metaphors for God and Devil imo and the survivors were brought here by Jacob to stop Black smoke which they eventually do in the finale. As for the Dharna Intuitive, they discovered the island had these reality altering powers back in the 1970s and tried to control them, only this failed more often than not, causing them to disband. Honestly, i think the original idea behind Lost went through so many changes and mysteries it becomes almost too convulted to really say what the original mystery was even supposed to be. I get *lost* every time I rewatch the show and return with different conclusions each time.

this level of acting...❤

Best.ending.ever!!!!! So beautiful. Wish I could watch this for the first time

My friends, do not be deceived! There are not multiple ways to heaven! Jesus Christ said that He is the way and the truth and the life. It is through faith alone in His finished works on the cross that we are justified. Every day we see more and more evidence that normal isn't coming back! Jesus Christ is! Get saved today! Read 1 Corinthians 15:1-4, Romans 10:9-10, Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 3:22-28, Romans 5:8-9, Ephesians 1:13-14. Rapture any day now! Come Lord Jesus! Maranatha! Amen!!!!!!!!!!!

You know….I was obsessed with this show growing up but I used to give it a lot of 💩 for a “cop out” ending and not explaining things. Rewatching it I realized neither one of those things were true. Pretty sure I believed they were dead the whole time too but hearing the one or two characters state that in the show really didn’t lend itself to that idea and of course Christian saying so (although quite honestly I was fine with the island being purgatory 🤷🏼‍♂️). I think the fact this was aired once a week over the course of however many years really didn’t help either. A binging rewatch puts it into better perspective for sure

Amen

Christian: “Everything that ever happened to you is real… the most important part of your life was the time you spent with these people.” Half the people that watched this: “I can’t believe they were dead the whole time, how lame”

I've come to think the inspiration for this was the last scene in Titanic, and Christian's explanation makes it all make sense. This is such a beautiful scene.

In a retrospect such a powerful scene, Caleb staying by on a passing train saves both the machine and the world in poi universe.

The world looks like it did 10 years ago, but it’s very strange indeed there’s an undercurrent of bad stuff going on just waiting to hurt somebody. That kind of sounds like our world right now.

Remember the people that pass thru your life…

Jack was the last to let go…as in life..fixing things..leading..taking care of people…Kate loved him so much she waited for him..

Fucking solid dialogue.

cool
