→ Random observation:
So many shows that I was watching have ended in the past year and a half.
Lost, Ugly Betty, Battlestar Galactica, Harper's Island, Stargate: Atlantis, Eastwick, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Pushing Daisies, Dollhouse.
That's a lot of shows. It's so weird to me to file Lost in that imaginary "past" column in my brain. So weird. Plus all of that? I feel so bereft. It's kind of depressing. More than kind of.
*ponders the meaning of life*
→ On a more depressing indie movie note, Winter's Bone looks really good:
→ Watched the live show and Mumford and Sons was amazing at Bonnaroo today. Amazing. God, I love that band.

→ My newest flister, colourmayfade, made a very pretty lost finale picspam over here. Lots of pretty happening in that general direction.

lost, claire/jack, pg13
This is so dark and angsty and desperate and subtle and lovely. I can't say enough about it. Highly recommended.
→ There's a fic wish meme going on right now. I want to participate but I just can't decide what to wish for, haha.
→ I want to post some stuff about the other finales that have all happened over the course of the past several weeks. Modern Family, Community, Parenthood, Grey's Anatomy, etc. but it feels like I'm late on all of it so I haven't yet. Maybe sometime this weekend.
→ Speaking of the lost finale, my friend Paul and I were talking about how I was unhappy with the outcome of the sideshow and he told me I had to "think of it as poetry" more than a linear story or a tv show or anything else. I have to say, that helped a bit... but not entirely. Still. It's a good suggestion. I thought I would share it for those still hung up on it as I am.
→ Random: I miss vidding.

Lost finale spoilers in the comments, even though I'm pretty sure every one of you has seen it already.

*eta, I'm a dork who embedded the wrong video
I am having a stronger reaction to the looming finale than I ever anticipated. I am seeing so many Lost posts on my flist, filled with love and sadness and excitement and dread and I am more convinced than ever that Lost has one of the best fandoms ever -- at least, my [our] little corner of it anyway. And I am ever so grateful for that and the years of fun, new friends turned old friends, deep thought, bonding over mutual disappointment, gorgeous art, amazing vids and fic -- and the crack!ships turned "dead serious" ships. Those, I will never ever forget.
Whether or not I was loving the show or hating it, I was always loving you guys. And somehow, the end of the show feels like the beginning of the end of that. And I know that doesn't have to be true, but it's still a depressing thought.
I think the thing I'm going to miss the most, and for all of the aforementioned reasons, is living in this fandom while the show was still alive.
So, to that:
Goodbye, Lost! I hope all my friends still want to come and play in your playground from time to time!

Four days guys!
I can't believe it's ending.
