I miss the way things were.

Yes, the final season is darker, more answers forthcoming and we may or may not like where it takes us. I've been watching season 3 lately and I've come to realize that I miss all the friendliness and dare I say fun that was in the characters those first seasons. Sawyer's quips and nicknames, Jack's I can fix it, Kate's I'll go with you, Sayid's I can make 'em talk, and everybody's willingness to pitch in on the quest. I know things hadn't gone too bad yet,the mysteries were there but we didn't know it was going to be on an epic time travelling MIB/Jacob scale just yet. To me Lost is in two parts: Seasons one through four had a certain glowing ambiance and seaons 5 and 6 the tone changed/is changing like someone flipped a lightswitch. All the spoilers being posted are making me wax nostalgic. See you next Tuesday.
