I can’t say that I’ve ever watched a web episode of “LonelyGirl15″ but I have followed the news surrounding the YouTube and I guess MySpace show. Anyway, it looks like LonelyGirl15 has bitten the dust…

After more than a year and 260 episodes, 16-year old Bree, the main character on the Web drama “LonelyGirl15,” was killed off Friday at the hands of the religious cult that had chased her for the life-giving qualities of her rare blood type.

In her last appearance on the popular and influential Web show, Bree, portrayed by Jessica Lee Rose, lies lifeless on a table while her blood is transfused into one of the cult’s elders. The monotone of her flat-lining heart pierces the silence as her devastated friends watch from a distance.

But her death was not in vain! Setting the show up for its second season, Bree reveals in a post-mortem voice mail that the cult, “The Order,” is pursuing other girls with the same blood properties.

Wow, “The Order”?? Cults?? Rare blood? Not exactly what I thought the show was about. I may have to check it out… or not.
