PLEASE leave Charlie dead. He was the most annoying recurring character the
show had.
Unless you're going to bring him back only to kill him again.

Hi there,
I certainly intend to pre-order Endgame. Then as soon as it arrives, I'm
taking the workprint and editing the two into some kind of coherant movie
(for my own personal use only, of course <eg>). Mark, my S.O., doesn't
think even that will help.

You know they may end up losing that way. Bringing characters back from the
dead just to kill them. I know that Marvel lost a bunch on and off through
the years with Jean Grey's recurring deaths. How many times can you kill a
person! Uh, er, as long as they aren't immortal. I'm not stepping into that
one:)!

Sorry. I was thinking ahead of my writing:). I was talking about fans. But
I've been known to be wrong before.2

Actually no. I don't want him to come back at all. But at least if they
were bringing him back to kill him, it might make it worth watching.

And they killed Ramirez twice. And Connor won the Prize three times.
We had two Rachels in the HL world (Connor's Rachel Ellenstein and
Duncan's Rachel MacLeod) and two Charlies (one was a friend of
Connor's in HL3 and the other was Duncan's friend in the series) and
three Alexes (Alexandra Johnson in HL3 and Alex Raven in the series
and Methos' Alexa).
And we had the same plot, more or less, in HL1 and HL3.
I do believe TPTB are seriously into recycling.

No fair--can't kill Charlie twice until Doc Anne's bitten the dust once.
SHE was the most irksome recurring character on HL:TS. Of course, someone
(I think it was one of the great HAM reviewers) correctly pointed out ages
ago that Anne was really just Charlie w/ breasts.
Nina (No, I _don't_ care that some people like her; some people eat Spam,
some people hate cats, some people think the lunar landing was faked--SOME
people will do just about anything. And, no, I'm not jealous of her,
either. Sheesh!)

And we are still around, seriously at that into this recycled stuff. TPTB
can recycle all they want, can't they >sg< !
