Then I was intrigued by the idea of the two brothers in the last season as the battle between good and evil, and that was in effect pretty lame, and then they killed the man in black in about 10 seconds of stupidity.
The series was a let down because it was too ambitious and the Writers continually wrote themselves into a corner.

Yes, I see your point with the battle of the two brothers/good vs evil. It was interesting, but then the death reminded me of something I would have seen on 'Lost In Space' reruns.
While watching the series, the scene from 'Misery' with Kathy Bates kept rolling through my head, how she screamed because she was so sick of the Cliff Hangers (can't remember what she called them) every week- when someone would die driving off a cliff and then the next week they'd actually be alive because at the last minute they caught a branch before the car went crashing down.
However, I still thought it was a very good series because it made me think and it was entertaining. I watched it all at once though on Netflix, and I know lots of people who lost interest because of the scheduling problems, the waiting for shows, etc. I wasn't able to watch it while it was aired. I really did enjoy watching it all at once.
I did have to buy a book though when I was done, to talk me through some of the episodes and some of the theories.
