Yeah you really need to watch the finale on its own terms. People got so hyped that literally everything would be explained in a character-driven show. However, there are actually relatively few mysteries left unexplained by the end, just about every mystery in the show was explained by the end. The biggest issue with the show is that it wasn't written out fully to begin with, which would have allowed every loose end to be tied up, but given the television landscape of the mid-2000s, that never could have happened. It's because of LOST that we have shows that can do things like that today.
It's fine on its own terms and I never really hated it as bad as others. I blame the producers for going on the record over and over and over saying that everything would be resolved and answered. Most of the main points wee fine, but there were a good handful of story threads that were dropped lazily before they even came close to a resolution. They were not particularly respectful of their audience, although it's true that it's influence on prestige TV was overall positive.
