Yeah...maybe a stretch, but I'll say probably effects on a TV budget are part of it too. lol <br /><br />Mike V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07952930766822976058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20542067.post-59103626681114714882014-07-20T08:18:18.747-04:002014-07-20T08:18:18.747-04:00Hi Leta!

As much as I'd like someone to see my hidden comments about the finale and then see it get validated, I'd much rather someone go into it with no preconceived notions and just enjoy it for what it is! (or hate it lol) The comments are always there to revisit at another time.

It was close to a straight, single-character story and provided the backstory and details of Richard, which are essential to understanding him, Jacob and the Man in Black. <br /><br />It was a nice break in the pace of the sideways stories.

I didn't want to overhype this episode for you and I knew you were anxiously awaiting the Richard backstory. You got it! And it was a highly acclaimed episode when it aired. Still is. I encourage you to listen to the audio commentaries from Season 6 once you are finished going through the final episodes.

Ya gotta feel for the guy, now feeling like everything he's been doing (for 140 years!) is for nothing. I think the hand that we saw touch Richard was just to make us think it was Jacob at first before showing us MiB. But I enjoy reading how every element of the show is dissected and theorized on.

In the very first episode when Charlie, Jack, and Kate are walking through the forest to find the cock-pit, it goes from sunny and clear to dark and stormy. Charlie then says, "Hey, is this normal, this day turning into night end of the world type weather."

I still am not a subscriber of that theory but it very well could happen. I still like my "jack's eye closes" final shot of the show to mirror the opening.
