I don't think it's too bad having too many characters as we get to see different perspectives etc but I do agree that many more and it would begin to lose focus(like SAW2)

Watch it again and tell me what you think,I was blown away by EVERTHING,Desmond coming back,others taking those 3,letting Hurley go,the fact that the people in the station John and Ecko went into were actually an experiment themselves, and I was most intrigued by:

Desmond's wife coming to the island??

That HUUUUUGE FOOT with like 4 toes!! WTF!!

What the big sound blast was and whether Ecko,Desmond and John are alive.

I know this may sound stpuid but do you think the button is real? My original thoughts were that it was fake and that these particular persons were chosen to go on the island for a reason,I mean a doctor,builder,cons,etc etc BUT IF the button is real,then that theory can't be right,they were not preordained to be on the island,they got there because Desmond failed to push the button!

Mannnnn,I looooooove this fwokcing show!1
