Season 5 Finale

I laughed, I cried, but at least we are one more season closer to the end. (OK I didn’t cry). I could go through my usual checklist of easy targets for this episode, of which the hit every one. You guys know what I’m talking about. I guess my main beef with the finale was that the whole show pretty much built up to Jacob being the God of the island, then we have one episode with him and they kill him off? I mean, he’s that powerful and he can’t dodge a knife? Made the whole endless flashback series with him pretty pointless. Ya, we get it, he met everyone, and he like a fresh red snapper.

I did enjoy the fight scene with Jack and Sawyer, although it kind of reminded me of the chicken fight scene in Family Guy. It went on a little too long.

The Juliet falling down the well was a total ripoff of the opening scene of Cliffhanger. I mean almost line for line. I guess a nuclear bomb can survive a 500 foot fall and not detonate, but an injured woman striking it with a stone sets it right off. My head is reeling, thats enough for now.

BOOM. Lost. Bad Robot.
