What (other) character will die on ‘Lost’s’ fifth season?
March 12, 2009 at 12:40 pm by Curt Holman in movies & tv, the televangelist“Lost” was a rerun last night, so The Televangelist took the week off. However, that’s no reason why we should take a break from pointless speculation about the show, especially given this week’s rumor that a major character will be killed off this season. A few weeks ago the buzz had Evangeline “Kate” Lilly leaving the show and auditioning for a new series, but that rumor has apparently been quashed. Yesterday, though, E! Online posted an item claiming:
- A current series regular is getting killed before the end of season five.
- The character who will die is someone who is much-loved by many of you fans.
- This is a real leaving-the-show death, à la Shannon or Charlie, not a quick-fix time-travel death like Jeremy Bentham/John Locke.
- The character getting killed off is not, I repeat, not Evie’s character Kate Austen.
So the question is, who? Given that the show just brought Jin and Locke back from the dead a few episodes ago, bumping them off would seem pretty cruel. One theory seems to suggest that Juliet’s number is up — but would they kill off another female character so soon after Charlotte’s demise? ? I personally would find it fascinating if it were Jack — according to the “Lost” Season One DVD, the show creators considered killing off Jack at the end of the pilot, as a way of setting up Kate to be the show’s true protagonist.That’s probably unlikely, so who? Anybody but Hurley. Or Desmond…

Maybe Sun? She seems really on edge (not that everyone else doesn’t). But Jin’s ring was used against his wishes to bring her back and she’s there under false pretenses. I don’t know though…

Perhaps they can dig up Ana Lucia’s corpse and kill it again. That would certainly be a crowd pleaser.

I’m just glad Kate’s safe. What’s up with all the Kate hate? Juliet’s the creepy one.
My bet is on Sun or Hurley unfortunately…

Apparently there are rumors that it’ll be Miles.

Another theory, with possible real-world evidence, says Juliet:

im all for sun kicking the bucket lets just say im not a huge fan of her…sure she is a good character but if i had to pick one person to go i would pick anyone but sayid (i love him!!) maybe it is the appeal of the unfortunate hero but i am still infatuated with him
