Not sure about Ana and Libby, but Shannon's death was totally intentional. It was planned before they even started filming Season 2. Same with Juliet. Elizabeth Mitchell was devastated after Season 5 because Juilet's death was planned. I remember an interview Mitchell did a while back explained how she cried for hours the night she found out Juliet was going to die. Only reason why she is on V is because she didn't have LOST anymore.

As for Eko, well. Adwale, the actor wanted to go back to London because of his parents dying or something. As for others....well, Charlotte is going to be in Season 6, as well as Faraday, so I think their deaths were intentional.

Anyway, just saying that not as many characters were killed off for that reason as you may think.

Anyway, did anyone watch this nights episode? *SPOILERS*

I loved tonights episode. Seeing Helen back after so long was great, but it was also so sad seeing what Locke's life could have been if he wasn't fated to get to the Island. Seeing the little connections with Hurley and Rose was awesome too!

In terms of the real timeline, I thought tonight was interesting.....the whole wall with all the names of supposed "candidates" was creepy. I was on DarkUFO earlier and they have found these last names crossed out on the wall...

Carlyle (That is Boone)
Rutherford (Shannon)
Linus (Ben or his father Roger)
Lewis (Charlotte)
Littleton (Claire)
Goodspeed (Horace or Ethan)
Pace (Charlie)
Possibly Faraday (Daniel)
Possibly Rousseu (The French woman)
Straumhe (sp?) (Miles)

And there were many other characters last names written, everywhere from major characters to even the guy who got sucked into the propeller of the plane in the first episode. What is interesting though is that Kate is not written there.
