Last night (or early this morning), ABC aired the Jimmy Kimmel Live: Aloha to Lost special. Kimmel has long been a fan and supporter of Lost so it was appropriate that he would host a reunion and discussion with the cast. The show also features farewell messages from celebrities, humorous clips, and three alternate (albeit joke) ending scenes from executive producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse.
Not looking unlike one of the Survivor finale/reunions, the studio was decorated to look like the island and included some authentic props and set pieces. Taking part in the studio were Naveen Andrews, Nestor Carbonell, Alan Dale, Jeremy Davies, Emilie de Ravin, Michael Emerson, Matthew Fox, Daniel Dae Kim, Terry O’Quinn and Harold Perrineau. Lindelof, Cuse, Jorge Garcia, Josh Holloway and Evangeline Lilly appeared via clips. Even a young Jacob (Kenton Duty) popped up here and there in the background.

Listen I followed Lost from the first show but the finale was horrendous. Of course the way the characters got together at the end was very moving but what ab0ut the numerous mysteries of the island? It was like the producers had no idea to explain the mysteries and therefore ignored the answers. BOTTOM LINE: Half the audience was pissed with the finale and therefore it cannot be considered even a good finale let alone the best of… Read more »
This was the greatest finale I have ever seen on television. A beautiful ending to an incredible show.
In 60 years, I have rarely ever seen a high caliber network television show like LOST.
The final episode was done to perfection.
Many Emmy awards are deserved on writing and acting. Kudos to all involved.
If you are left feeling unsatisfied, bitter, angry or just plain confused. Watch these clips nothing better to remind us not take ourselves so seriously than a little humor!
