Found this in a recycling bin outside Bad Robot Productions.
"Notes to the Writers on How to Write a Final Season Episode of LOST"
- Keep in mind the theme of Deja Vu.
- When needing a character to use in one of the parallel timeline stories, refer back to first two seasons and pick a random character (except, under no circumstances, Shannon)
- Keep in mind the theme of Deja Vu.
- When stuck as to where you are, have one character (i.e., Jack or Illana) tell another that they have to get moving. / And then make sure there is at least one scene with several characters hiking from one part of the island to another.
- Hint at a mystical/mythical God vs. the Devil connection but if hinting doesn't work you may bludgeon people over the head with the connection. But: only in moderation!
- When in doubt make sure something blows up once per episode
- Hurley is the only one allowed to be funny
- Stretch the season out by at least 3-4 episodes
