On the 'death' of Juliet

At first, I wasn't too sure about the Juliet character on LOST. I don't think you were really supposed to like her all that much in the beginning. But she really did grown into a great character, and Elizabeth Mitchell did such a fine job portraying her. And she and Sawyer made such a great couple.

That's why the end of last season's finale, when Juliet fell down the shaft and set off the bomb, was so heartbreaking. Entertainment Weekly talked to Mitchell, Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse about what it was like to shoot that episode and their thoughts about Juliet's 'death'. There is a sense of finality to their answers, as if to say that Juliet is actually dead, but they also say she will re-appear in the final season, so who knows? This is LOST, after all.
