hey, even the monolith that was Gilligans Island had to bring new characters in once in a while right?
I've said it before and I'll say it again.. Lost is a mystery and we will never, ever be given all of the answers to the many mysteries that pop up. I doubt we will ever be given a good explanation of where the 'island' is. I think they have answered that with Easter Eggs and all that. Once the show stops bringing in new people and new mysteries it will BE OVER!!! so stop wishing that the producers tie up loose ends, or they'll wrap the show. Plus, Babylon 5, I mean, I'm sure its a good show, but there are like 25 types of show out there just like it, and more on the way. there is NO equal to Lost.
