Assuming that the writers will kill off someone by the end of the season, who do YOU think it will most likely be. Will it be an FBI member? Someone associated with Loeb? With ZFT? With the Observer? Etc? They must be shocking so that we will look like this for the rest of our lives: :confused0066:

Ideas?

(Just as an lol moment, I accidentally put the laughing face instead of the shocked face first. It made me laugh =) )

If the show wants to really "shock" me ------ I would have to see the Observer die in a sacrificial move, or Nina Sharp die. Olivia dying or either of the Bishops dying wouldn't shock me, because they are central characters and their "resurrection" would be predictable. If Loeb, Broyles, Charlie, Olivia's sis, Ella, Astrid, etc. whoever dies ------- so what? It adds drama, but very little shock value (as they stand right now). They would have to elevate their positions in the Game in order to be of great consequence.

That having been said, my money is on Jones dying :ninja:. He seems like a major power player and although his death might not be shocking, it could "shift power" in the Game so to speak.....

The Observer sacrificing himself--I agree! Now THAT would be shocking! I hope that we soon get to see Olivia, Broyles, Charlie, or any of the "bad" guys (such as Loeb, assuming he actually is bad) talk to the Observer.

I can see Nina Sharp dying-and then Walter would be devastated...that is, if they were really married.

yeah, i agree that it'll probably be the Observer. It makes sense, I mean assuming that Inner Child will be dealing primarily with the issue of a new young observer (Im guessing here, feel free to correct me at any time) it would make sense that we dont need 2 of them.
as for the sacrifice idea...i like it.

i dont know if they are ready to kill her off just yet i mean there are SO many unanswered questions surrounding Nina Sharp, i think that is she will be dying, it wont be until later seasons.

Killing Nina Sharp would make sense only because eventually they'll bring in William Bell. Nina's time as his corporate face ticks down and Bell ascends to his throne again.

Loeb will probably be dead by the end of the season.

And my guess is before the season's end, the beacon will be back.

I hope that, if Sharp ever does die, they leave tons of unanswered questions about her, just to keep us all interested! And of course, that would lead to more information, and when we are given information we are given many more mysteries, about William Bell.

I agree, Loeb will most likely die soon.

I hope the beacon (and the Observer) return soon!

I hope the beacon (and the Observer) return soon!Yeah if Loeb doesn't die I'll be surprised....and as far as the Observer returning I'm afraid you're gonna have to wait three more episodes and then another 7 week hiatus for that to happen :(

And that's exactly from the secondary characters I would NOT want to see die, I really hope he hangs around. Now, of course, I don't want any harm to come to Astrid, Broyles, Charlie, and you Can't have anything happen to Walter, Olivia and Peter. Olivia set a new time record for me getting free from a scenario that I thought would last the whole episode. Ooo, that reminds me, there's supposed to be a new preview on the Regis and Kathie Lee show this morning. Mr. Jackson has been busy making appearances, yea!

All that and I never said who I'd thought would die. Mitchell Loeb doesn't look promising to live long at the moment!

Maybe in a later episode the agents, peter and walter will find out that Broyles could be bad and is working for Massive Dynamic that is if Massive Dynamic isnt good, if they are he could be working for ZFT, The Observer, Dr. Penrose, etc..

Ah, but on Lost, death does not necessarily mean less screen time. Just look at John Locke! :muahaha:


Come to think of it, the same could be said for fringe. We've seen quite a bit of John Scott since he died, haven't we?

I just got a pretty wild idea. Peter dies..... Olivia is completely devastated. And demands that Walter bring him back, because Walter knows how... but it is dangerous. Too dangerous, and could risk in multiple deaths..... Do you think the writers will do this?

That would be pretty interesting ^^

I think it's too soon to have a major character be killed off - it definitely wont be Peter, Olivia or Walter, I think we can pretty much rule taht out. Having Astrid die wouldn't be a great move because we don't know her at all really, and it would have been a bit random to have her there in the first place, a mere plot device. The Observer, well I highly doubt that, he's very important to the plot and he doesn't seem very humane to me, so why should he be affected by the human vulnerability of death? Nina Sharp, Broyles, Charlie etc. would be the maybes, but then again Nina contributes a great deal to the MD link and it wouldn't be wise to get rid of her, Broyles hasn't had enough screentime or revelations about his character to earn our sympathy thus we wont be shocked/affected by it, same with Charlie. So I'm not sure as to who would die :/

I see Charlie dying in a "sacrificial" kind of a way.

Yeah, trying to save Olivia. I got an image of him jumping in front of a bullet heading towards Olivia--and the entire scene was in slo-mo, with Charlie screaming in a very low voice. :haha:

Almost every show has a main cast member killed off near the end of the first season (Boone in Lost, Isaac in Heroes, Westmoreland in Prison Break) or in the season finale (Teri Bauer in 24).

Fringe won't kill off Olivia or Walter, but I could see Astrid, Charlie, Nina or Broyles going away.

I could totally see that one happening. I'm still hoping they don't "kill off" anyone besides John Scott this season. There's enough deaths taking place every time a pattern event occurs!

Those are minor character deaths. Every show needs something to happen to one of the main characters early in its run.

But it doesn't have to be a death, necessarily. It should just be something shocking, something that makes you go "WTF?" and makes you curse the TV gods that are making you wait till next season to figure out what just happened and/or why. With a show like Fringe there is a whole universe of options for that :) A death would, to my mind, be almost boring, doncha think?

I must agree with you. Considering the fact that this is sci fi (not to mention a JJ Abrams show) nobody is ever really dead. I mean one way or another they can bring a character back. We need the shock factor here, so something related to the Pattern (obviously) and to the main characters--like they are connected to it in a greater way or something as dramatic as that. Like you said BrassOrchid we need that WTF moment.

Like a character being sucked into another dimension forever? Or trapped in another reality? I could definitely see that happening on the show.

Arctic Fox

^ I could see something like that as well, for the reasons you guys have already mentioned.

But if there was a death, I reckon it could be Broyles... Right now, he's like Olivia's boss, someone she goes to if she needs help on a case, can rely on, he can organize things, instruct people; he's important.
But take him away, and some of the other characters would have to take more charge in some of the operations and use other ways to get things they need.
Or, if he did die, he could be replaced by someone that makes Olivia's job considerably harder.
Or, I could be completely off course, and he could be a solid character that remains for a long time to come.
But, for me, personally, Broyles is the only option I see right now.

Charlie. They will kill Charlie. If they do kill Charlie I'll bet ep. 116 with the animal control, and Charlie's bleeding animal attack. I'm not sure though... . .

If Broyles did die, Harris could possibly take his place. But then again, I hope something will happen to him that will want to make him NEVER come back to inspect the Fringe division. :happy15:

Mm, we know that all the characters will make it to the last episode, even it doesn't look they will. Can't wait to see the life-threatening situations our characters are placed in!

I vote for Charlie looking like he might die. With all the blood on his chest, the woods scene, etc.

That's good to know. I like Charlie. I'm glad he'll be okay. Okay, so I suppose we can assume someone dies in the last episode. "Everyone will make it to the last episode." So who's gettin' the boot?

Maybe Harris? And if so, it has to be in a way that makes him realize what a **** he has been to Olivia and Broyles so his last concious thought is how badly he messed up when he turned them against him. :D

I know, cruel and evil. Only because he is fictional and not a pleasant character, I promise.

Considering the massive pain in the ass that Harris has been, I think a cruel and unusual death would be fitting. Then, as he's taking his last dying breath he can be like: "Oh NO! What a jerk I have been to Olivia and my hommie Broyles. If only I would have kept my nose out of the Fringe devision and not screwed them up, maybe I wouldnt be dying a cruel and unusual death!"
I think that would be great. :P
