![Creators of ‘Lost’ say they won’t tie up all those loose ends
“Many of the questions posed during the run of “Lost” that have been keeping you up at night are never going to be answered on the show but will instead be tossed on the compost heap like an old turnip, because, the writers say, they have run out of time.
And if you’re expecting they will nonetheless come through with some kind of post-finale TV special, online chat, tweet — anything! — to answer their rabid fans’ lingering head-scratchers, you need to think again. They have no intention of discussing the show after the finale airs on May 23, co-creators Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse blithely informed nearly 2,000 “Lost” fans attending the annual TV festival of the Paley Center for Media (formerly Museum of Television and Radio, formerly Museum of Broadcasting) in Beverly Hills, Calif.
Now, you’d think that might have irked some of those nearly 2,000 fans who had coughed up $25 to $75 and then stood in line — some for more than two hours — in the on-again, off-again rain Saturday night in order to spend slightly less than two hours in the company of the writers, and a smattering of actors, from the prime-time soap.
You’d be wrong. It only inflamed their passion:
“Now that we’re [preparing] the finale, we’re not at all having the experience of ‘Oh, my God, we forgot to do this!’ ” Lindelof told the capacity crowd at the Saban Theater.
“We’re big fans of the show ‘Top Chef,’ ” he explained. “Those guys all run through Whole Foods and they have to pull all of this stuff down — they have to get stuff they might not use in the dish. When they get to the kitchen, they have to decide whether or not they’re going to use it. Our process is kind of the same.”
“There’s a lot of little questions that unfortunately we just don’t have time to answer in the amount of time that we have left,” co-creator Cuse told the uber-fans.”

I’m not sure why fans are surprised, if they are. I’ve been saying for a while that they would never have time to tie up all the loose ends. I figured that they would tie up important things to the story line, but leave little questions unanswered since they wouldn’t have time. This would also allow fans minds to wander and search for their own answers to open questions.](http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kytg74uVC71qzr4e1o1_500.jpg)
