Yea that's pretty much the same thing pants was saying. That this season has just created new questions to answer and that they're ignoring the old ones that never got answered.

I have to say, that would be a very satisfying ending you came up with considering the direction they've gone! You probably shouldn't have said that, because now when the real ending isn't as good as that, I'm going to be pissed.

Holy crap Sayid, Jin, Sun, and possibly Frank Lepidus all died in tonight's episode.

Has any other show ever killed off characters at such an amazing rate?

24? That's the only other show that's even close.

Sopranos and The Wire were also willing to kill characters but never anything like that episode of Lost.

Given that lost seems to be going to a last man standing final it isn't that shocking when main characters die.

Except for Ecko... I'm still shocked.

That is interesting about Eko asking to leave. They clearly forced his departure.

Akinnuoye-Agbaje's active involvement in his character's development became both a blessing and a curse over the course of his first season. ''Adewale's process is complicated,'' says Cuse. ''He needs to discuss it, process it, and make it his own. That's harder to do on a television schedule, but it ultimately leads to great work.'' His time in Hawaii — which can (for better or worse) leave a person feeling distanced from the rest of the world — proved difficult for him. He had to move to Oahu, a place he'd never been, in about two weeks. He was afforded little of the prep time he relishes. And he struggled with his newfound visibility. ''I felt like I'd landed on the moon,'' he says. ''I'm very private, and I don't like public influence on what I'm doing.'' Mostly, though, he struggled with playing the same person every week. ''I'm primarily a movie actor because there's a lot more flexibility,'' he notes. ''I never like to get lazy, sitting in a character two or three years, him getting fat and having grandchildren. I like to hit and run.'' Toward the end of last season, he met with Cuse and Lindelof to discuss his future, and agreed to stick around for a few season 3 episodes. ''There was an ongoing dialogue [when he signed on] about what the longevity of the character would be,'' Lindelof explains. ''And we all decided the shocking and emotional death would be the best way to go.''

As Eko's end grew imminent, the actor's offscreen life became more trying: Both of his parents passed away over the summer (''I'd rather not even mention it, to be honest. It's still too fresh'').

No my writing was just unclear. I meant the way in which he left felt forced into the script, not he was forced off the show.
