I saw a scene in Lost yesterday that TOTALLY makes a rewatch worth it.
( MASSIVE SPOILERS for A LOT of stuff )
THAT SAID. I don't think you should have to rewatch a show to "get" something like this? Also: I'm still of the opinion that Lost isn't as clever as the writers thought it was. (I mean yeah, yeah, I will hold my hands up and say that some of the foreshadowing/Chekov's guns are amazing*, but I really don't think it's as dense as they wanted it to be).
*But also some stuff that was allegedly answered, I honestly think was the result of someone going, "Oh shit, the fans won't stop bugging us about this, let's slap this on it!" and leaving it at that. And that sometimes what you think is foreshadowing really isn't at all, it's just something someone picked up and ran with later on.
And, in spite of my tag, everyone EXCEPT Jack has made me feel a bit teary this time around. But I think I'll keep it for the time being, because it kind of makes me laugh.
