Will Charlie really die on Lost?

Dominic MonaghanFans of the hit series Lost have watched many of their favorite characters bite the dust since the show premiered. Shannon, Boone, Ana-Lucia, Libby, and Eko, just to name a few. Since "Flashes Before Your Eyes" aired on February 14, fans have been fearing the worst: that Desmond's vision of Charlie dying comes true.

USA Today has just revealed a few tidbits about upcoming episodes, one of them will be centered around Charlie. Information about this Charlie-centric episode is not pouring in right now but it is known that previous episodes will help prep fans for this episode. A lot of fans are not ready to see Charlie go, especially if it means the end of Charlie and Claire, and can't see how the show would kill a character who has been on the show for almost three years now.

(Spoilers after the jump)

In her latest "Lost Redux" feature, Kristin Veitch from E! Online drops a huge hint about Charlie's fate: "Life and Style magazine is reporting that Dominic Monaghan has been told he won't be back for next season." The gossip guru hasn't heard more about the rumor herself and said she would investigate it, but could this be the truth? Will Desmond's vision come true?

Lost is known for killing a few characters here and there, regulars aren't immune to the slaughter. Producers are doing their best to keep the date of the Charlie-centric episode as secret as possible, why if not so that fans don't know when the death occurs? Lost deaths have mostly occurred in the episode featuring flashbacks of said character.

Are producers toying with fans and having foilers (aka false spoilers) be leaked so that people believe Charlie will die but won't after all? (In the past, spoilers aficionados have known exactly who would die and in which episode. So having them think Charlie will die in his episode and having him be saved would be something different for sure.) Or are they slowly preparing us for the demise of one loved character?

No matter what happens, Monaghan claims that he would be fine with either outcomes.

That really sucks that charlie died, he could have gotten out with desmond and shut the door, He was my favorite character, he was a hero, willing to do what most will not face death, for the good of others and his fellow man kind, so many people in the real world I live in wouldnt, because they have no code of Honor. At least one Irishman showed it still exists even if its in a Tv show. I was hopeing charlie was going to beat the odds, and the good guy lives. Charlie escaped death quit a few times, even in the first season when they left him for dead linched from a tree, but his spirit was strong and survived. To the Directors and writers of Lost you, have lost a fan this day and a devoted watcher since the beginning.

Charlie is my favorite character, but it seems to be a love hate relationship with most viewers, because I love Charlie, but my Dad thinks he's whiny and compares him to Ross from Friends, who he also hated. So they could really go either way, because there are viewers on both sides.

I like Charlie, in fact I like 90% of the cast. But I have not been enjoying the bull with Reruns, off the air for three months, and lately bored with the plots. If things don't start flying right with the producers, I will not bother to watch it anymore.
Taking Charlie off would hinder, not help the situation, in fact taking anyone off would more than likely tick several people off, and well, at this time think the producers had better watch their p's and q's or they won't have to worry about who is taken off, and the show itself will be.

You people who want Charlie gone so bad, don't understand the HUGE fan base he's riding on. LoTRs was one of the biggest movies of all time, and it doesn't matter if Charlie did drown the baby, he would still have one if not the biggest fan base. If you're a LOST fan you better be praying Charlie doesn't get killed off, because the amount of viewers lost would be incredible, and I don't believe LOST could come back.

Tom, it's slightly upsetting that you would dislike Kate as a character because Evangeline dates Dominic in real life. I would love to just talk to the guy for half an hour let alone date him. He's a member of PETA, is involved with the saving of trees, and is very enviromentally aware. Which we need alot more of in this world.

It will be a shame to see one of everyone's favorite characters go. It may be true that charile will die in his next episode.Overall if charile dies it will be the new news the next day as fans will miss the beloved character.

I agree wit Griff, Derek and Gwin, and I've been writing in these lost blogs for the last two seasons, PLEASE, F*@King, PLEASE, get rid of the most annoying, whining, uninteresting, revolting character on the show. Ratings would go back up (for a little while anyways) if they would just get rid of this guy. Hell, I'm (almost) ready to get rid of Kate because she dates the guy in real life. F&%King little hobbit. I can't believe people watch this show FOR charlie. I watch in spite of this guy.

There is a rumor circulating that Charlie will not die but suffer some kind of catastrophic injury that will require plastic surgery -- he will return to the camp played by a different actor.

It's nice to see that people can talk about Lost without complaining that it has gone 'downhill' in their eyes. I think this has been a first in quite a long time.
