LOST, specifically the finale. There seems to be a common misunderstanding that the finale meant "they were dead the entire time".

spoilerThe Flash Forward timeline was them in a kind of purgatory where they all went after they died. They stayed there so they could all move on together. The rest of the main timeline on the island, flashbacks, etc were their actual lives in the show.

I'm not a religious or spiritual person at all, but for a scifi/fantasy show like LOST I thought it was a cool way to wrap things up.

It was utter shit and deserves more hate than it gets.

I lasted ten minutes into the pilot and bailed out. No regrets.

Really? I just recently started, it's been pretty good.

I do know all the issues and common complaints, so maybe that makes it easier to overlook?

Everyone has different tastes!

Only a LOST fan would put the word "spoiler" after the spoiler.

only a lost hater would lack the reading comprehension to understand that isn’t a spoiler. it’s a misconception, so it’s not spoiling anything.

also the show is 20 years old, shut the fuck up about spoiler nitpicking.
