And I think I was kind of right about what I thought the flash-sideways were about- it was their way of showing us the happy ending for all the characters. A way to give some kind of resolution to the characters after the events on the island. It wasn't the actual alternate reality/timeline I thought it was going to be though. But I wish it had been- not just because I would have been "right" though, but I think an ending that reset the timeline and made the flash-sideways alternate reality the actual reality would have felt like a more complete resolution of the show. Not only for the characters but for the plot. At the very least it would have given some meaning to what Juliet said before she died in the hole- and probably several other plot bits. It would have been a classic sci-fi ending that would have altered only the final 10 minutes of what we saw in the actual ending. I guess I would have preferred an actual happy ending rather than the we're-all-dead-so-now-we-can-pass-on-to-our happy ending. Oh well.</blockquote>
