Do It Today: Lost season finale — whose side are you on?

Lost Season Finale. The penultimate season of J.J. Abrams' time-travelogue series has proven to be nothing if not debatable. Entertainment Weekly's Jeff Jensen thinks it's been "a pretty freakin' fun and altogether fulfilling year." But the Tampa Tribune's Walt Belcher dismisses the season as "tiresome," and the New York Times' Ginia Bellafante says the show has become "mind-bendingly nonsensical" and "dispiriting." (Whether you agree with her or not, her assessment is pretty funny — I especially like the reference to "a bungalow compound where the survivors are forced to wear orange jumpsuits and deal with people trying to look like Allen Ginsberg.") Then there's the intrepid band of superfans and skeptics who meet each week to discuss the series on Creative Loafing's Lost podcast; you'll have to wait till tomorrow to find out what we thought of the finale, but you can catch up on our previous bouts of brilliant theorizing and tangent-following here. Tonight's shamelessly drawn-out three-hour farewell begins with yet another recap show at 8, followed by the two-hour season-concluding episode at 9.  ABC (WFTS-TV), Wed. May 13, 8-11 p.m
