Wish List for Lost: Seasons 4-6

If you haven't watched the season finale, but plan to, or your name is Doug, don't read this.

1) No more Jack with bad, fake beard.
2) No more Jack storylines that go nowhere and mean nothing, at least nothing lucid.
3) No more proving me wrong about Jack's flashbacks/forwards not being capable of being any more bleak and depressing.
4) No more Jack/Kate/Juliet/Sawyer love square/rhombus.
5) No more Mikhail, the Russian Jesus who just won't die.
6) No more inexplicable Walt, the baby Jesus who grows up but doesn't go away.
7) No more Charlie. Oh, wait, they took care of that. And I liked how he went out. Very heroic.
8) More forward-moving, loose-end resolving action, as in the beach slaughter.
9) On that point, more quick decision-making, as in Sawyer killing Tom.
10) More ending of ridiculous stories, like the Alex/Rousseau separation (God, how big is that island supposed to be?!)
11) More Desmond. Not flashback, loser Desmond, but action-packed Desmond.
12) More shows with minimal flashback time (regardless of whether the flashback time is squandered in tedious exposition like last night or has something interesting to add).
13) More usage of things that seemed insignificant at the time becoming important in fun, fruitful ways, as in Hurley's VW bus (again, that beach scene had lots of good things going).
14) More resolution of important cliffhangers quickly, as in Jin, Bernard and Sayid not being dead.

1,2,3, &4. How about no more Jack, at ALL?? and speaking of Jack, no more pummeling people -- quick shot in the chest, a la sawyer and tom, ok, but i get really tired of the brutal beatings... and speaking of Jack, again? i really can't stand his character. and i REALLY can't stand how the writers are pretty much telling us we're supposed to think he's awesome (like his seen where he tells Kate he loves her -- look! he's selfless! except if he was really selfless he wouldn't have said anything.)

5. yeah, i hope he's really dead. the others don't need any more random folk

6. i was ok with Walt except he's now like 45.

7. that final scene with Charlie was great.

8, 9, & 13. the beach scene was awesome, if for no other reason than i really like Hurley and he pretty much saved the day. and also, Sayid? and those leg moves? awesome.
