The article in question appears in Monday’s paper (of course it needs registration).
It talks about what’s coming up in Lost, 24, The O.C…
And in Lost, it says that we can expect our hardy crew of castaways to meet survivors from another plane crash, and that one of the regulars will die.
There is also news that Jack was supposed to die halfway through the pilot episode, but the writers decided they liked him too much to kill him, so maybe they won’t actually kill off a regular at all
