I loved the first four seasons. Lost was always interesting (or at least when it occassionally ran off track it would JOLT you back into caring). But once it started into the time-traveling, everything just started spiraling out of control. Once you bring time travel in, then nothing matters any more. Anything is possible and so everything becomes immediately uninteresting.
There was really nothing I found very interesting or exciting about the entire season. Nothing until Sayid shot young Ben. I was shocked and entertained at that...for about 30 seconds...before I said to myself "...wait, wait...he BETTER have actually died!" Of course he didn't, even though, of all people, Sayid should have been able to stop that kid's heart from beating. So even the one thing that could have been the "Oh my god!", season-making moment (think Locke being thrown out the building), didn't happen. It was just smoke and mirrors.
So much of the season was just time-traveling around randomly so we could have nostalgic looks down memory lane. For example, Jin meeting a young Rousseau...for no reason, et.al.
Then we've got the ridiculous, contrived relationship between Sawyer and Juliet. Is ANYONE actually buying this? Totally, totally lame.
And now Locke is a reincarnated ancient god, who just killed another god. Or not. Or something.
And oh my god! Juliet just sacrificed herself! Or maybe not. So who cares any more.
Who. Cares. I watched this show for 5 years under the assumption that there would be a huge pay-off at the end, justifying my investment in all the mysteries and so on. Now it would make as much sense for E.T. and Harry Potter to show up in the final season.
When the 6th ends...the Internet is going to be a damn firestorm of hate. Guaranteed. Well, Im glad I'll be one of the few able to laugh at the whole mess.

This season was truly amazing.
The season finale was something that changes completely the perspective of the show, and gives you a better picture of what's going on, but you're left with the question of "what's going to happen next?" more than ever.
We had so many things this season that I don't know who could rate it less than 3 stars, I know it's just their point of view, but I'd recommend that you watch it again, because one of the bad things in LOST (Something that I love, but makes people who watch the episodes only once, or simply have bad memory to be lost) that we go back to previous episodes. So many scenes that people might find useless, really have a connection to something that has already happened, or something that's going to happen.
Trust me, this season more than any other, deserves a 2nd watch and you're probably going to connect everything correctly on your head, specially with the finale.
And if after this season you still think that they don't know where they're going, that they make it up as they go along, then you still don't see the big picture in LOST, maybe you would need to watch it again.
What I strongly advice, is that you finish watching the season, you take a deep breath, think about the episode, and watch it again, at least the begining of it, because I've had some friends that hated lost after the finale, but after I explained things over, they were completely amazed how they plan this show!
But still, we have to wait for season 6 in 2010, that will be what will define this show as a complete masterpiece, or just a good entertaining show.
We're all hoping for the first :)

Lost - The Complete Fifth Season was the weirdest season yet. The first five episodes I was confused beyond belief, the flashforwards, flashbacks, and the present time is all jumbled together - I almost stopped watching this show altogether. Towards the middle, I kinda understood where the writers were heading, the season finale was definitely intriguing. Josh Holloway and Terry O'Quinn are still my favorite actors. Watch this show with someone who knows all the backstories because that helped me figure out what the hell was going on! Good show, can't wait for the final season next January.
 COMES OUT in DECEMBER, should disable rating until then June 17, 2009

There are blogs and forums to review shows, this is a product review not a show review FAIL. There are spammers on here who do get paid to write some of those ridiculously long epic reviews of how great something is before it gets released ( You know who you are). People pull this same craaap with video games and books. key words PRODUCT REVIEW not show review.

Now bias as I am since I have been a LOST fan since season 1 this season 5 was AMAZING. ESP. with all the Sci-fi and I never really thought I was a Sci-fi girl but I loved this season, it answered so so so many questions and of course gave us many more but it totally set us up for season 6 and although Ill be very sad to see this show finish its been an AMAZING RIDE and never been dull, these writers are beyond brilliant!
