Justin Chatwin, who played the love interest to Emmy Rossum's Fiona will not return to the Showtime drama, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed. Producer John Wells made the announcement at a TV Academy Emmy panel for the series on Tuesday night in Los Angeles.

That sucks. I liked Jimmy/Steve on the show. Link goes on to say that he may return for an episode or two, but he's done as a series regular.

So still no commitment as to whether he is dead or not.

Guess that means he was killed on the boat? Am I remembering this correctly?

They left it open by implying he was dead but not showing it onscreen.

Suggesting he may return in the future would indicate his character is still alive.

I wonder if they don't like Justin Chatwin and wrote him off. They clearly didn't write all of the med school storyline just so they could kill him off at the last second.

No big deal imo, Steve was okay but he isn't a necessity.

The only "necessity" is Fiona. Anyone else can be replaced.

LINKThe bigger loss is losing his Brazilian wife from the show.

My god. I didn't even think about that. She is the real loss from his absence.

I thought the way they closed out Jimmy's character was perfect. Don't pull a Community on us and start insulting your viewer's intelligence please.

I'm ok with it. You know they'll eventually bring him back like Karen though. They'll def leave it open ended and never confirm his death.

Well if they do, I hope they don't royally frick it up like they did the recent storyline with Karen, because that was abysmal.

Basically everything with Karen and her family has been awful.

unless he returns as Fiona's true love, a la Clooney on ER, it's just best to move on. I prefer to think he is dead than to have him MIA.

They better show what actually happened to him. The love interest they gave her at the end sucks. Hope he is not permanent. BTW, they better not still pretend these 25 year olds are still minors that can be sent to a home (Lip, Ian).

I think the cop is still in play for Fiona.

The cop is Leonardo in the new Ninja Turtles movie, btw. Mickey is Raph too.
