How Stephen King Would End Lost
I hope this is just because they put him on the spot, because as much as I like King, it's not a very good idea.

"Here, in his own words, is how Stephen King would end LOST:
I would take the main guy, Jack – the first shot of the whole series is his eye-ball close up, right? What that always said to me was that from now on, everything I see, Jack’s the eye of the beholder. So I would do something at the end where I flashback to the airport when they were getting on the plane, and I would have him taken away by people who wanted information out of him.
I would have them hook him up to a machine or something, or feed him drugs, and reveal the whole series had been Jack’s hallucination, built out of fragments of his real life – people from his past, people in the airport, his father, of course, and the numbers. The whole thing would be a lot of shuck and jive. I’d make it work somehow. It would creak, but I’d make it work."
Though, it is very Twilight Zone...but this isn't 1960, and this isn't one 30-minute episode. It wouldn't work, and would be as big a tragedy as the Matrix Revolutions fiasco.
