Did Des watch him drown?<br /><br />We don't see him actually die on screen and we never see a body. Ever.<br /><br />I cling to the frail and tiny hope that possibly, maybe, like Jin, Charlie somehow survived.

They just wouldn't leave her hanging. So any Lost viewer with an ounce of sense would know she'll be back in season 6. <br /><br />But the other thing is, I haven't read the article. I don't know how spoilery it is, I don't know if it has definitive information about S6 or an explanation as to why Charlie won't be back or if he 100%, absofruitalootly won't be back. That, to me, is not a spoiler, per se, but spoilery. So I can't tell people to go read the article when I haven't read it first to make sure it's OK.<br /><br />And as the person who runs the site, I don't put my foot down on something like that, I'm just trying to avoid the dozens of angry emails from my readers saying they thought this was a spoiler-free site and now someone just posted a link to Ausiello that totally spoiled the show for them and they'll never be back. I'm inundated by those every time the tiniest, eensiest thing is over here. So I have to be careful, and frankly, I want to be careful. I didn't see the Juliet thing coming AT ALL in the finale, and I'd bet half the fans or more already knew about it. But I didn't, and I'm happier that way. <br /><br />And I actually didn't go and delete the link. I'm just simply stating that I wish they'd let us have our fun a little longer, speculating on the ways Charlie could come back, before posting that he won't. And that I'm not reading the article. The title was enough. :)Nikki Staffordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04463618183850438914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-4241911371382726932009-06-09T01:00:52.257-04:002009-06-09T01:00:52.257-04:00Another interpretation that could be projected ont...<br><i> Another interpretation that could be projected onto the promo is that Dom was dead within the ABC family (casting), since Charlie died.</i> <br /><br />Yeah, I thought about that, but I figured I was already pushing my read of the internal consistency without referring to the actors as portraying raw-material avatars on which different characters could be written.

I know that supposition or leaks from journalists should be taken with a grain of salt or flat-out ignored, but if it weren't for the explicit mention/reassurance by the producers that Emilie De Ravin would be sitting out last season and back for the next one many of us would have been wildly speculating on her absence while those who'd read their statements would've been holding our tongues for months.<br /><br />I admit that while I don't seek out overly spoilery info that might crop up on die-hard fansites via production assistants and the like, I will read casting news or other tidbits in, say, <i>Entertainment Weekly</i> or hear about it from my sister and friends anyway.Blamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07342343767763035991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-57784916693723700582009-06-08T23:28:09.243-04:002009-06-08T23:28:09.243-04:00My take: I know it may be dangerous to apply inter...<br>My take: I know it may be dangerous to apply internal logic to a promo (even a clever one), but... These are shot in-character -- albeit with some kind of "meta" fictional reality where characters from different series hang out -- and Patrick Dempsey is called Derek. So unless Dominic Monaghan is stating that he "was dead" in the context of some new role on another series, his comment only makes sense if he's speaking as Charlie. I'm not saying that the promo holds to this internal logic, only that I'll think it's dirty pool if it doesn't. 8^)Blamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07342343767763035991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-54522565575600072452009-06-08T20:21:36.193-04:002009-06-08T20:21:36.193-04:00Yes, Eko was buried, as Benny and Batcabbage both ...Yes, Eko was buried, as Benny and Batcabbage both said, but don't worry, there's a very good reason you don't remember it very well.
