It's becoming the Brett Favre of television - they just aren't sure if they want to retire it. I love the show but I wish they would make up their minds. I mean if they wanted to leave the door open for another season, they should have let Jack go home free. It would have been satisfying but they still could come up with a reason to initiate a new season.
Loved the episode, hated the end.
I was ready to see Jack die as the final clock counted down. Even that would have been satisfying. Giving himself for his only friend left on Earth.
I kept saying that he was going to die. Or it would have been a great scene for it to cutback with a crashed helicopter and Jack walking away from it.
