i'm sure you have all heard the rumours. Jack hasn't been in Hawaii filming as much for LOST lately. With his upcoming movie, We Are Marshall, some believe he will soon be on the path to big screen success. But what does that mean for LOST fans? Speculation has been spreading like wildfire. With the confirmation from the producers that there will be two more major character deaths this season, and rumours, although still mostly unconfirmed, that Juliet will be shooting someone in the second half of the season, fans have been feeling on edge. Also with news of the "Jump the Shark" moment that is fast approaching, many fans would probably "jump the shark" if one of their favorite characters were killed. Most have been putting two and two together, and are not feeling happy. Could the island's number one doctor, Jack Shepherd, be making his exit from the show?
My opinion: No. Matthew's noted absence from the set in Hawaii can easily be explained by We Are Marshall preparations. Or by the fact the producers have stated we will be focusing on the beach rather then the Other's village for the rest of the season. We have seen in the latest lost moment that Jack doesn't make it out of the Other's camp. He may simply be taking a background part for the remainder of the season. Jack is simply too popular a character to kill off. His death would esentially be the producers signing their own will.
Recently polled fans have been divided over what would happen with the death of Jack Shepherd. An alarming number, at 49% of those who voted, said that if Jack was killed, they would stop watching the show. We can only hope the JJ and Carlton listen to the pleas of the fans.
