im still seriously upset about this…god knows i sympathize with the fat nerd and all…but i seriously didnt talk for like an hour after the show last night… :frowning:

I was like that after the first episode - then they showed tony seeing his wife’s bloody corpse on their lawn… tony’s gonna start ripping new assholes, only question is when.

yeah, it was edgar’s last “chloe?” that got ya. :frowning:

yea that was actually pretty sad… they didnt even do the “beep beep beep” at the end of the episode it was just silience

when season 4 began i didnt like edgar much, but as the season went on i repected him more and more and i felt bad when his mom died but he stuck it out and kept working. CTU will miss edgar

i want to see what will happen with tony and henderson locked into the same room, i cant imagine that going over too well…

still mourning :frowning:

Alas, poor Edgar, we sort of knew him

By Gary Levin, USA TODAY
Say it ain’t so!

Edgar Stiles, the lovable bear of a computer expert on Fox’s 24, is the latest casualty on the high body-count drama, which is known for its penchant for giving regulars the heave-ho.

The character crumpled to his death at the end of Monday’s two-hour episode after he was exposed to nerve gas released by a Russian bad guy who infiltrated the counter-terrorist unit.

“People are going to flip out,” says Louis Lombardi, 38, a Bronx-born actor whose sad-sack Edgar lost his mother in a nuclear attack, saved the day last season and yet remained a frequent target for insults.

“He was the humble guy-next-door who everyone feels bad for,” Lombardi says. Edgar made the actor an unlikely fan favorite. In public, “everybody wants to buy me a drink, buy me dinner, give me a hug.”

Executive producer Howard Gordon says he has no regrets.

“It was a tough decision but really the right decision,” since producers needed to underscore the terrorist threat. “To keep it honest with the audience that anything is possible, sometimes people have to leave.”

Especially beloved characters. Just ask Jack’s wife, Teri Bauer, killed off at the end of the show’s first season, or former President David Palmer, felled by a bullet in the first minutes of this season’s opener.

Gordon acknowledged that in the 24 universe, Edgar became more vulnerable as his appeal grew. As he told Lombardi just before the episode was filmed in December: “The good news is you’re one of the best characters on the show; the bad news is that, unfortunately, we have to kill you now.”

Though it’s a given on 24, where actors’ contracts offer little job security, “I was kind of shocked, and then a little sad,” Lombardi says.

Left unsettled was the true nature of Edgar’s relationship with Chloe (Mary Lynn Rajskub), his socially awkward soul mate. Was there — as fans hoped — a love connection between them, now tragically broken?

“It was kind of unrequited,” Gordon says. “For her it was a brother-sister” relationship, with its dose of affectionate cruelty, but “he probably wished it were more than that.”

Until 24, Lombardi was best known as the FBI agent for whom Sal “Big Pussy” Bompensiero became an informant in The Sopranos’ second season. He’d love to re-enlist for the show’s final episodes, and has plans for his own comedy about small-time crooks.

And 24’s producers want fans to forgive them. “I hope people will understand, I hope they’ll be affected by the loss and I hope they’ll miss him,” Gordon says. “Because if they do, we’ll have all done our jobs.”

I wonder if the actors are paid by the episode or by entire seasons…

probably paid by how much mail they get about them…haha…

the New HOT computer girl got whacked too!!! DAMN IT!

Yeah i forgot about that, I wanted her to seduce chloe

what type of role do you think kim’s new b/f or whatever the fuk he is, is going to play? will he play any kind of role or will he be a waste of space? i just have a feeling something will happen with him since they are all stuck in that room right now. I have a feeling he will become a hinderance and make jack angry lol

Oh god i hope he does! He is already on jack’s nerves.

I predict he will piss Jack off to the point that he will kill him with his bare hands.
Then Jack will go McGyver and use the dead boyfriends body in some way to defuse the syntoc gas canisters, kill all the terrorists, reunite happily with his daughter, bring Edgar back to life, turn Audrey on to the point of instant climax, and become the next president of the United States.

:lol: I can see it now

bump for teh death in our CTU family tonight.

place y0 bets!

I bet 1000.00 that jack will live lol

Re-raise 1000.00 on Chloe living

If he dies, then im sure he will turn into a terrorist hunting ghost.

see that and raise $500.

seriously, I’m thinking lynn or buchanon, but hoping kim’s buddy catches it.
