Thoughts on Lost....

I just finished Season 4 of Lost, and while I will continue to watch this glorious show, I now firmly believe that the writer's are starting to wing it.

While the 4th season was the shortest season, it was also one of my favorites. As I finished watching the finale, the thought struck me.

Why introduce an oddball / unknown character ("Jeremy Bentham") in the last epsidoe, only to reveal his identity. In previous seasons, the writers would have performed a slow burn.....peppering the entire season (or multiple seasons) with references to Jeremy Bentham....and in the process, driving the audience insane (see..."the numbers").

Anywho, still a huge Lost fan, will continue to watch and debate the show religiously....but....has the show jumped the shark?
