Ok, I know I am about 7-8 months behind everyone else but I am watching the last episode now.

I am still not getting it though....should I?

I can see how they are all coming back into each others lives and having flashbacks to remember.

What I don't get is what the island was about in the first place! Can anyone help?

There was a really good thread on here from that time - have a read. I can't actually remember what happened now. Also there is a lostapedia which is quite good although slightly addictive.

Been searching for a thread but can't find one that covers the finale.

shoshe,
i think you might have got it wrong! Everything that happened on the island was real. The whole of the side time line where they ended up at the church was the 'purgatory' place that they had all constructed in their minds to come to terms with what happened on the island before they died.
They all died at different times. For example, the plane did get off the island and kate, sawyer etc would have lived out their lives. That's why Kate said to Jack 'I have missed you', because she died long after she left the island, whereas Jack died on the island.
Also Hurley said to Ben you were a great number 2, which suggests that they lived on the island for a long time after the plane left before they died.
And Jack's dad said some people died before Jack and some a long time after.
Jin and Sun died on the sub, and their baby would have lived whereever Sun left her when she returned to the island to find Jin.
Has taken me most of the morning to work it out though and there are still millions of loose ends!

Actually this was the post I was thinking of and the thread:

Season 1 - They all crashed. All the characters we knew and loved the last 6 years DID NOT DIE HERE! I repeat, they did not die here.

Season 2 - Stuff happened

Season 3 - Stuff happened

Season 4 - Stuff happened

Season 5 - Stuff happened

Amongst this stuff, lots of people died!

Season 6 - Let's ignore the alt. universe.

More people died. At the end, the Hurley is the new Jacob, the new protector of the island. He may be there for thousands of years, but eventually he will die. Ben is his sidekick, the new Richard, he may be there for thousands of years, and eventually he will die. Desmond is with them, but Hurley will get him off the island, he is the new Jacob, he has powers. Eventually he will die.

Jack died (with Vincent, Matthew Fox's dog in real life, laying next to him, so **ing sad). Kate, Claire, Sawyer, Lapidus, Miles, and Richard all flew off the island. Let's assume they lived happily ever after, but eventually, they all died too. Everyone dies! That's life for ya, death and taxes are the only two sure things.

Now this is where the opening of Season 6 starts, once everyone is dead. They are all in purgatory. It all begins in the plane because this is where the most important part of their lives began, where they met the most important people they would ever meet, Oceanic Flight 815.

Problem though is, they are dead but not at peace. They all can't move on. They all miss each other. There are too many stones yet unturned. Too many sins not atoned for.

Charlie tried to kill himself, but he couldn't die, he was already dead! When he saw this, he then had a flash of what meant most to him while he was alive . . . Claire. He opens the door for Desmond, and Desmond opened the door for everyone else. Every person had to realize what they all had been through, the giant adventure. They had to see all the sacrifices they made, all the things they did, the HELL they went through, and they had to see it together. Jack was just the last one to figure it out in the afterlife.

Ben couldn't move on just yet. Having Hurley give him a thumbs up and Locke forgiving him wasn't enough. He killed his dad, he killed his daughter, he killed all of Dharmaville! He wasn't ready yet, he needed to atone.

Everyone else though, they were sitting in the church, much like passengers in the plane, and the two most important people, Jack and Locke, were in the front row, on a flight to their ultimate peace.

That was the tv show LOST! It was an adventure about a group of people who were alone, they had no one, they were dubbed a tremendous responsibility, and they were all LOST. In the end, after they saved the world, after they made sacrifices, they were all together in the end, no longer alone, no longer LOST.

Good luck!

LOL! Thank you for taking time to do all of that. Will have a read through.
