Who were the Season 5/6 Others?

Okay - doing a final rewatch since Netflix is dropping it, probably like a lot of other folks, so sorry for being one of 'em.

>!Originally, the "Others" were Black Rock survivors and...others...that Jacob had pulled to the island over the years, called "Hostiles" when Dharma showed up. Then by the time the main cast is on the Island, the Others are those same people + what was left of Dharma, being led by Linus after he was sent there by the main cast in the past. Then they all get time-wonky. But eventually, we all return to the present - \~3.5 years after their initial crash, give or take, though some (like Sun, Ben, and...the pilot guy) were already there. But when Jack, et al, show up, the Others act like they have no idea who they are.!<


I don't follow this. That's not a long period of time, and by then everyone knew the main cast because of the multiple encounters with them. So...why'd no one know who they were? Or did I miss another group arriving during that time frame?

Why didn’t John Locke tell people about his legs?

He would not seem so crazy, I think people, specifically Jack, would understand why he felt they were all there for a reason.

Lost season 5 finale

Just completed lost season 5 finale as a first time watcher and the ending was such a cliffhanger and juilet's death was really sad.I'm gonna start the final season now and so far it has been great and heard that the last season and the ending has made many disappointed, but I'd like to watch it myself first and then agree to them. It also feels sad that I'm on the last season the last few days have been so good watching the show.

Sorry for my bad English :(

Just finished Lost

It was beautiful.

My lovely girlfriend put me on to the show and having never heard of or seen anything besides just hearing the name of the show, I went into this thing completely blind.

It was phenomenal. The ending was beautiful and I cannot believe people out there thought it to be disappointing??

Anyways here are my rankings for the season best to least best:

Season 4
Season 3
Season 5
Season 6
Season 2
Season 1

All of the seasons are 8.5s or above, truly a stellar show and one of the top 3 best I’ve ever seen!

Am I understanding time travel correctly? I felt like I did but after reading some reddit posts I am completely confused

Hello, I am currently rewatching the show after watching it withotu too much focus when I was young (I was 11 when this season released). I don't care about spoilers, the point for me is more to recall the story and see how it actually went down.

I am in the middle of season 4, saw the Constant yesterday, and I felt like I understood the time travel system correctly so far but the consciousness jumps left me a bit confused and after trying to check some reddit pages I feel like I don't understand anything anymore; I don't know if I misunderstand or if it's redditors who makes it needlessly complicated in their big explanations.

My understanding is that the time loop are made consistent by simple following the continuity of the characters in the present who happen to be intertwined with the past, if a character does some shit X years ago, it doesn't change the whole present because it already happened, the character just discovers his involvment as it happens because his present is interfering with the past: they aren't changing anything at all because it already happened. For example if I went back in time and told Marc Antony to flee the streets around the Senate before getting killed, it wouldn't change anything to the present, because this event actually already happened, I would just discover that I am the one who caused it. The reciprocal is that you can't change the past, for example Sawyer could not save his mother anyway, because she did actually died, what happened happened.

Then with Desmond it's some different device, it's his consciousness that's jumping between two version of himself in time, I don't know if it will be explained later why but that's how it works so I accept the device for now and try to understand: Desmond sees Faraday in the present to solve a problem in the past, but why wouldn't he remember in the present what he did years ago? As I understand it it's simply because there is a weirder time loop where it's not only the present jumping in the past but the past jumping in the present, therefore what happens in the past is actually happening in the present; he can't remember because what happened is actually sort of happening right now even if it already happened.

That's where I was at this point of the show and it felt quite understandable to me, even if I think Desmond's case is actually ripping the fabric of time and should be explained later which I hope it will rather than just "Desmond was exposed to some shit when using the key, accept that he is like that now". The key and what the countdown do is so far the only thing I didn't really understand.

Then I came here and read some post like this https://www.reddit.com/r/lost/comments/kdqg18/explaining\_the\_time\_travel\_in\_lost/ and now I am completely confused.

SPOILERS Was it or was it not a misdirect?

Anyone else here under the impression that the bomb actually did change the course of history, and that season six was not a flash sideways, but a true reality, different than the one that led them to crashing on the island to begin with

Finale Question

Why didn't the island or more accurately the source heal jack of his stab wound and save his life after he put the cork back in.
