I sort of disagree with referencing LOST. Most of those "Ghostly" characters, such as "Jack's Dad", were really either Jacob or "The Man In Black"... However, as I recall, Hurley, had conversations with his dead friends. This one is not an "early in the series" example, but... In the original Transformers "Generation One" cartoon series from the 1980s, Starscream was destroyed by Galvatron, and later his "Ghost" played an important role in a couple of stories. Later, Unicron would give him a new body... But he was shot again. I can't recall if he was killed. He appeared in an episode of a Sequel TV Series, and I think he was a ghost, once again. Does Murdoc on the original MacGyver TV Show count?... He would appear on about one episode per season, and would try to kill MacGyver. But he would apparently "DIE" at the end of the episode. Somehow he would miraculously survive his DEATH, and then he would comeback to try to kill MacGyver again, and would "DIE" at the end of that episode... This continued through the entire series... No one was ever sure if he was really gone for good or not. Well, there's more to it than that. In addition to Hurley, the final season had all of them dead and waiting for the next stage together.
Miles is a ghost whisperer type and Hurley had a conversation with dead Michael in the final season who also verified the whispers are dead people from the island.

Kai from "Lexx" has been dead for several thousand years at the time the series starts. Doesn't seem to slow him down, though.
The old "Robocop" television series featured a woman who dies and becomes some kind of virtual internet ghost.

Number 6 in BSG...kind of. It’s kind of ambiguous but at the very least the model she represents was destroyed.

Due South. In the first episode, Constable Benton Fraser (Paul Gross) finds out his father, Sgt. Bob Fraser (Gordon Pinsent), has been murdered. As the show goes on, Benton sees his father and has conversations with him. Hex. Jemima Rooper’s character, Thelma Bates, was killed in the first episode and then spent the rest of the series as a ghost. Though, oddly, she still seemed capable of interacting with stuff and eating food. Witchblade.

Rosie Larsen's murder is the focus of the first two seasons of The Killing, and Katie Findlay appears occasionally throughout both seasons. Katie Findlay is also killed off on How To Get Away With Murder where she played Rebecca Sutter in flashbacks for awhile after she had died.
Sheryl Lee played Laura Palmer on Twin Peaks for many episodes, even though Laura was found dead in the first episode.

The one season series from the 80s "Filthy Rich". The father character had recently died at the beginning of series and left videotape messages for the family. Forrest Tucker and Slim Pickens played the father character.

The Expanse Julie Mao dies early in the show's chronology, yet remains important throughout the first season as the catalyst for the plot and is seen later in the series in flashbacks or in protomolecule form.

One supposes that High Five Ghost from Regular Show is technically dead, what him being a ghost and all.

George Takei on Heroes appeared in a number of eps after his character was killed, Malcolm McDowell also appeared in a number of eps after being killed.

Good idea, but Julie not so much. It's Miller who has been most visible after dying on Venus as some kind of guide/medium between the makers of the protomolecule and humans.

Sure, but in this topic I was mainly asking for important, recurring characters who had been seen since the first episode, or early in the series. Miller doesn't even die until the second season.

Sydney Sweeney's character, Alice in 'Sharp Objects.' She is seen in flashbacks and Camille sees her for a split second nearly everywhere she goes for in a few episodes.
