Reviews from The Guardian on the 'finale' of the Lost series.

"It certainly felt like an ending. The big closure. The stirring music. The way it all ramped up to a big light to wash over them. The joy of watching the Lost gang get back together certainly adds weight to the idea the producers have been pushing recently: that it's always been about the journey of the characters. The finale went for the big emotional impact: a chance to see the characters (and actors?) saying goodbye to each other in a hug-off to rival the love-in at the end of Friends. So if that's what you were after, you'd be satisfied."



During its six seasons on ABC, "Lost" won 11 Primetime Emmys in 55 nominations.
