I dont understand how people complain about Lost 'dragging it out' when theres been 6 seasons of 24. All of which are essentially the same storyline...

Lost does have a few slow episodes, but it was never meant to be an all action series. I think after the first few episodes of Season 1, people expected that.

As for the ending. Who knows?

Ummmm yommehh!! I wouldn't mind entering her hatch :o

I think Lost is great, you've just got to watch it with the knowledge that you're probably not going to learn what the hell is happening for a very long time. I'm just interested to see the various things that happen, since from the first episode of the first series I think a lot of 'OMGWTF' moments have occured :D

I was kidding, I do like the show, but in all reality, the series will keep on going till the ratings die and the show will be axed :( I hope it doesn't, but it's what a lot of people including myself believe.

Saying that I've only seen the first season so far.
 
Unless the producers are very very clever I can't see there being a decent ending. There is so so much unexplained stuff eg Yemi appearing in Eko and Locke's dreams and telling them to climb the cliff to see the question mark. That is just one example of hundreds.

Lets face facts imo, it will end when ratings drop to an all time low and the shop is simply not attracting peoples attention anymore.

And why is everyone posting that? Of course it will end when the ratings drop enough not to warrant it carrying on. That goes without saying. I think this thread is supposed to be how the story will actually end. After all the writers do have it planned!

So how do you think lost will end.

Not soon enough

Totally lost interest misway through series 2, just didnt seem to be going anywhere, 24 holds much more appeal to me - seems to be much more thought/planned out

With the show being cancelled, always happens in America, they keep dragging it out eventually the ratings drop and the show gets cancelled. Rather than just finishing it of.
Sad but true. The most annoying thing about American TV is that, no matter how well scripted it is, they refuse to just end a series, if it's still popular. It just ruins the narrative of some shows, because the writers have to stretch a story beyond what they intended.

From what I've seen of BSG it looks like it might be going that way this season too. It just seems to have slipped into a "we don't know how long this is going to run, so let's make our episodes more formulaic and self-contained so they're easier to write for" pattern now. I really hope it doesn't, because the best thing about BSG was its unpredictability.

Because they're completely different types of show. 24's story is mostly self-contained within a series, so that when the series ends, so does the story. Sure each series might build on the last and bring back characters, but if you were to only watch, say, the first two series, you wouldn't really have anything in the way of loose ends to tie up.

Lost has an absolute ton of loose ends, and the longer the show is dragged out, the more loose ends will be written, and the harder it'll be for the writers to drag all the plotlines back together into some kind of coherent ending. Plus people get impatient waiting for everything to actually be explained. That was one of my biggest problems with The X-Files, was that although I really liked it, after a while you just gave up hope of ever really finding out what was going on, because they continued to tease you with half-truths series after series.
