LOST SCOOP!!!!

From Entertainment Weekly's Ausiello Files comes this info: May's series finale is going to be a real downer, predicts Michael Emerson (Ben). "I don't think Lost will have a happy ending," he confessed to us at the Saturn Awards. "It's the end and I think we are going to start seeing more casualties. I would put money on major characters being killed. I believe it will be a sad ending to the show -- or at least bittersweet. I think it will definitely be a series finale for grownups." Emerson, meanwhile, is still trying to make sense of the season 5 finale. (Join the club!) "I killed Jacob... maybe... probably," he hedged. "It isn't like we haven't seen plenty of other people be killed and somehow come back. And what does it mean if I did kill him? I Who the hell was he anyway? Obviously, Ben wanted a father. So much of our show is about bad fathers. It is one of our biggest themes. And Jacob disappointed in those final moments. And maybe Jacob made it easy for him. Maybe that was all meant to happen. Is it all ordained? Maybe. And for that matter, can Jacob even be killed?"

My thoughts........

I wouldn't want LOST to be a syrupy, sickly sweet totally happy ending anyway. It's Science Fiction and that can never end happily ever after. I mean, can you picture Ben all happy and chipper without a care in the world? Yuck! Ben must get smacked down at LEAST once each episode. By now, this is both necessary and de rigeur. Can Jacob be killed? Damn I hope not. I want to see some more of that sexy God's favorite-barbecued-finger-food. Yummy. Jacob on a stick! Oh my, see what happens to my mind when I don't have my weekly LOST fix? Scary!!! And if a major character is going to get killed, Oh my Jacob, please kill off Kate! Thank you!
