I'll only be shocked if Locke or Charlie dies because the actors are such fan favorites, and a show in its first season needs ratings more than HSQ. Anyone else is fair game.
I read that JJ said he would keep Dom on the show as long as he came out of the trailer. (from a TV Guide article) It would be stupid to kill him off with such a rapid fan following (of the actor) anyways.
Wow, that second half of S1 post was complete babble.
I'm hoping to be shocked not so much by
who
dies as by
how
that person dies. I want some S2 Buffy or S3 Angel HSQ, people.
More about the 11/8 episode:
These seem really interesting, then again they are from Kristin at E! but still.... quite intriguing.
11/08 - One character was not on that plane and Claire and Charlie are going to disappear, kidnapped, it seems by the character who was not on the plane. Sawyer’s backstory has a twist that just might be as good as Locke’s (and that’s saying something). Also, he and Kate have some heated interaction this week that ends in a kiss (but only because she’s basically forced to), and in a later episode, they stumble upon a waterfall that looks breathtakingly beautiful on the surface … but when they jump in, they find some disturbing plane wreckage, including the key to Kate’s story. Jack is going to get beaten to a bloody pulp. Source: Kristin on E!Online
For story reasons, I think Kate and Locke are essentially unkillable at this point. For meta reasons, I think Charlie, Jack, and Sun are likewise untouchable—the fans love Monaghan, the fans AND network execs love Fox, and the producers were wowed enough by Yunjin Kim to write a whole story arc around the character they created for her.
Actually, I could really see Locke getting killed.

Check out this Dark Horizons article - interview with Paul Dini. It is spoilerrific and actually cogent. :-)

There are two things that bug me about the DH article:
1) the persistent misspelling of "boar"
2) are the boars CGI or not?
I was about to post much the same thing, le n.
