Back From the Dead on Lost?

On most television shows, the death of a character signals their exit from the program.  However, for the lucky actors on "Lost" who find their characters making a final exit, it's really more like a vacation.

Following in the footsteps of "dead" cast members like Ian Somerholder (Boone), Dominic Monaghan (Charlie), possibly Emilie de Ravin (Claire) and the record holder for most appearances by a dead cast member, John Terry (Christian Shepard) comes Michelle Rodriguez, whose character Ana Lucia was brutally shot by Michael at the end of Season 2.

Rodriguez, whose exit from "Lost" was haunted by rumors of bad on-set behavior and a DUI arrest while filming the show with fellow iced cast member Cynthia Watros (another only partially dead member of the returning cast), will return to Lost for the second episode of the new season.

So who says death has to be the final farewell?  If Jack needs someone new to flirt with, there's nothing better to hold the Grim Reaper at bay.
