After some months of reflection and consideration, I am extremely disappointed with the series finale and all of season six. This in turn has led me to feel negatively about the entire series as a whole. I haven't even bothered purchasing season 6 to see the additional content.
The entire flash sideways timeline was a red herring and a waste of half the season's screen time. Answers to mysteries were hollow and meaningless despite countless hints from the show and ARGs that the science fiction elements would be meaningful.
The creators said the show was about the characters, but we were never truly able to understand the motivation of some of the most important characters on the show - Jacob, the Monster, Widmore, Eloise, Ben, and the whispers. Moments during the season and in the series finale were poignant and moving, but there was little in the way of satisfying resolution for the characters who we did understand well. I wish that the show had ended with the season 5 finale.
That said, I had a wonderful time trading theories and jokes on here between season 5 and season 6. Thanks to everyone who I had the pleasure of playing with. There were at least a dozen theories running around on here that were better than anything the writers came up with for season six. I am more of a fan of my time here on Lostpedia than I will ever be a fan of LOST.
