Barbara Hershey

They had a 21-year age difference and endured a strain that would have sunk any other relationship, and still Barbara Hershey and Naveen Andrews continued as one of Hollywood's more endearing couples.

But now comes word that it quietly ended for Hershey, 62, and Andrews, 41, six months ago. "They remain best of friends," Andrews's manager Renee Jennet tells PEOPLE.

In 1998, long before Andrews would go on to star in TV's "Lost," the then-29-year-old actor met Hershey, then 50, a veteran of films such as "Beaches" and "Hannah and Her Sisters," on the set of the obscure 1999 indie film "Drowning on Dry Land."

They were together until a 2005 separation that was as brief as it was eventful: Andrews confirmed that during the split he fathered a child with another woman. Andrews and Hershey worked things out and continued their relationship until their breakup last year.

24 Finale

The 24 finale has a tough act to follow tonight. In fact, the 24 finale has almost been forgotten by the television world, in the midst of the Lost ending. Today, all of pop culture is still arguing over Lost, and
 mourning its end. But for 24, which was just as innovative as Lost in its heyday, the final episode is far less of an event. In fact, some fans may regard it as a relief, after the mixed results of the last three years. In any case, the 24 finale doesn't feel like an ending at all, since Jack Bauer will likely live on in movies anyway.

There could not be a greater difference between final episode events, even though Lost and 24 are equally groundbreaking. Whereas Lost set the bar for mystery shows, 24 set the bar for serialized action, years before Lost was even born. The 24 hour, 24 episode format shook up the TV formula, and created a new iconic American hero - warts and torture and all.

If the 24 finale happened three years ago, it might have been more celebrated. The show will best be remembered for its groundbreaking first season, and for its Emmy-winning fifth year where Jack Bauer was upstaged by a twisted First Couple. But ever since Season Five, things have not turned out so well.

Day Six was declared a disaster, then the strike ensured that Day Seven wouldn't redeem it for two years. Heading into Day Eight, everyone knew that the 24 finale 2010 could have been the last for the show. In midseason, they finally decided to end it, although perhaps not at its best.

This last day in New York has been tainted by 24 fatigue, a more outlandish final few hours than usual, and Dana Walsh in general. Heading into the 24 finale tonight, Jack is even more of a killing machine than usual, as he continues to slaughter the Russians who killed Renee Walker. Now it appears he has to kill the Russian President to end it all, as U.S. President Taylor still refuses to come to her senses, thanks to Charles Logan.

There should be no ambiguity or divisive plot twists in tonight's sendoff. This show usually ties things up by the end of each day - and even if they didn't, fewer people would get angry. The controversy over the show
 has faded, as has critical approval for the most part. Even if there are unresolved loose ends, the likely 24 movie would clear them up.

The 24 finale is certainly Jack's last hour on TV, before he can get even bloodier on the big screen. The last big question is where he will be left off before his movie career starts. The clock finally shuts down from 8-10 pm est tonight on FOX.

Lost Finale Explanation

Lost Finale has finally been explained! Lost, the tv series which glued many to its fan base has now came to an end. The Lost finale explanation is what everyone wanted and want. Lost Finale, are they in purgatory or not? What really happened in all these episodes and whose interpretation was right among the millions of followers in the world?

As it says “Viewers, where are we? The answer: Almost anywhere we want to be”! The simple answer after the final show is that the whole story was not purgatory but only part of the last season was!

Everything that you saw in the show happened. Starting from the plane crash, moving through the smoke monster to the protection of the island and others. In simple words, all the flash forwards and flash backs of the show was in fact the reality and things that happened.

Confusing series right? That is what the producers wanted. Each character which died in the show in fact died in the real universe to be then transported to a single point in purgatory. The final aim was the after life, so everyone had to die to reach that point including those who managed to escape the island.

Now coming back to our real life, the question is if fans are happy with the series ending. Some are more confused than ever while some are quite happy to have predicted the right meaning of the show.

Jimmy Kimmel

Jimmy Kimmel is a big "Lost" fan, so it makes perfect sense that the opening shot of his "Aloha to Lost" special following Sunday's (May 23) finale was of him watching the end of the show with his audience, several of whom were crying.

Kimmel himself seemed a little bit emotionally drained too, but he recovered to host a pretty decent hour of reminiscing, comedy bits and young Jacob.

Yes, young Jacob was there, popping up at least twice (and never commented on) in the background of Kimmel's Island-fied set. (At least we saw him. Does that mean we're candidates?) It was the only running comedy bit in the show, which featured interviews with several long-time cast members -- including Matthew Fox, Terry O'Quinn, Emilie de Ravin, Naveen Andrews, Daniel Dae Kim and Michael Emerson -- and important supporting players including Alan Dale and Jeremy Davies.

Fox was out first, and Kimmel floated this theory on the finale: "My theory is the whole show, beginning to end, was Jack's test. ... Jack passed his test. Maybe each character has their own story and their own test, but the show was Jack's test."

Fox: "I'd agree with that, yeah." Kimmel: "I'm so proud of myself right now."

Fox did add, though, that the beauty of the finale was that it's open to interpretation. "There are also religions that believe when you die, you go a place ... where you have to remember your own death, and all the people who loved you the most and helped you the most and were most important to you," he said. You have to remember all of them leading up to the moment you died in order to move on."

Cast members also shared some of their favorite scenes. Our favorite was Emerson recounting the several food-related scenes Ben had been a part of, including one "where Locke [O'Quinn] brought me food and told me it was rabbit, and I said, 'Did this have a number on it?' That's when I knew I was in a comedy."

Josh Holloway appeared in a taped bit from the set of his new movie (not really), "Snakes on a Plane 2: Electric Boogaloo," featuring Adolfo "Shabba-Doo" Quinones and Michael "Boogaloo Shrimp" Chambers, and Evangeline Lilly showed up in one of the show's "alternate endings," where she wakes up from a dream next to ... Bob Newhart.

Kimmel also showed two other alternate endings, one featuring "Survivor" host Jeff Probst and the other -- our favorite -- an excellent riff on the final scene of "The Sopranos," with Jorge Garcia as Tony, de Ravin as Carmela, Fox as A.J. and Kim as Meadow (parking the Dharma van) and Styx's "Come Sail Away" taking the place of "Don't Stop Believin'."

Which alternate ending do you like best? And what did you think of the rest of the special? (Note: The YouTube video below was briefly public on the "JKL" page before being taken private. It will be public again following the West Coast broadcast of "Aloha to Lost.")

Josh Holloway

Josh Holloway thinks he's a 70-year-old beer-drinking man.

The 40-year-old actor loves the thought of growing older and being able to relax because it will be the complete opposite of his current hectic life.

He said: "I love the comfort zone. In my mind, I am a 70-year-old man with a fly rod in one hand and a beer in the other. But that's not the world of creativity. I'm not saying you can't enjoy the comfort when you've found a zone. But you must always evolve."

The 'Lost' actor - who recently posed for the front cover of Men's Health magazine - has also vowed to strip off and pose without his shirt when he eventually turns 70, so he can show off his "buddha gut".

He laughed: "I will be that guy! And I'll be unapologetic. I'll be happy to show my Buddha gut, because it will certainly be out. And I will have earned it."

Lost Finale Explained

In between, fans were treated to an iconic TV series that was discussed online (and in offices, chat rooms, bars…) more than any in history. The same will likely be said for this week’s series finale, in which all the castways came together in an unexpected location… and let the light shine down on them all.

In honor of tonight’s finale of LOST, something that many fans have been waiting six full years to see, we have decided to open up a discussion thread in our comments section below. Over the next several hours, questions will be answered. More questions will probably be asked. And in the end, we will all be left in a world without one of the most compelling shows in the history of television

The pieces are in place for the final showdown.  Jack took over Jacob’s role as protector of the Island while the Man in Black plans on using Desmond to destroy it.  In the alternate universe, things are unraveling as characters being brought together and becoming aware of the fact that there is another world.

After Lost ends, the cast will be appearing on a special Jimmy Kimmel Live titled “Aloha to Lost.” Throughout the week, advertisements of the show have been stating that Kimmel will also be presenting three unused alternate endings for the series. It will be a long night for Lost fans,

We’ve found out that he is the “protector” of the island, but we also found out that he will not be able to assume that position for much longer.
