THE ABC network said the emotional two-and-a-half-hour Lost finale was the most-watched show on US television. Some 9.8 million watched a special retrospective, Lost: The Final Journey last Sunday night.

TV critics and fans of the award-winning show had mixed feelings about the conclusion of the tale of plane crash survivors stranded on a mysterious island.

Newspaper USA Today listed 10 top questions that it felt had not been cleared up, including why the island needs protecting and why babies can't be born there.

In a review headlined 'No Longer Lost', but fans are still searching', Mike Hale of the New York Times said the episode was 'largely a pleasant, nostalgic wallow for the show's fans'.

Lost, which began in 2004, was one of the costliest and most ambitious shows on television and gained a huge following around the world. It has won 58 awards.
