I think they are faking his death until he can recover from the enormou amount of bullet holes...since people are after him. Sydney doesn't seem too devestated

THE SYD/VAUGHN THING WAS THE KEY TO ALIAS. NO MORE VAUGHN, NO MORE WATCHING FOR THIS FAMILY. WHAT DAY AND TIME IS KITCHEN CONFIDENTIAL?

I'm glad that we will still see him on tv land. I need my weekly fill of his hotness. I will have to pull out some of his movies to tie me over till he graces my tv again. I was very ticked they killed him off because Jennifer was feeling uncomfortable with him being on the show with her now that she is married to goofball Ben. Grow up people, don't date your co-stars. It never works and then the good guy has to leave. CRAP CRAP CRAP. I hope the show goes all to Crap now.

As a French fan of Alias, I was utterly disappointed to read what happened to M. Vaughn in the new season. Many of my friends also feel the same and we think Alias will lose many French fans because of Vartan's kill off. The relationship between Sydney and Vaughn was Alias's magical touch. They killed it and will cetainly regret it. Yours truly,

I'm just not sure Vaughan is dead. It just seemed odd. Not to mention, noone ever dies on Alias...realy.

Love Michael Vartan and when his character died, Alias died for me as well and I expect the ratings to tank over the next few episodes. In reading many of the Alias message boards, I'm not the only one who will stop watching...there will be many. Bad Robot/ABC really underestimated MV's popularity and hopefully will pay dearly for it.

I liked his character but I didn't like him, I liked Will better though

Am I like the only one who never ever liked Michael Vartain nor his character on Alias? I always thought that because of her relationship with Vaugn... it made Syd this ball of bad-sentimental-schmoo-spy and that *hit doesn't fly with me. I say about time and that guy shooting Vaughn in the chest like a billion times? Best.Scene.Evah. Of course, I'm sure I won't be so lucky and they'll bring back the bastard, but I can pretend and stop watching the show now that Vaughn is dead. Maybe Syd will go back to being a kickass spy again after she has the baby or knowing JJ Abrams, maybe not. He can mozyonup to Kitchen Confidential, I for one won't miss him.
