I know this isn't really relevent but I have just thought, Buffy must still think that Glory is alive, out there somewhere. Giles never admitted to her that he killed Ben. So Buffy could just be waiting for Glory to seek revenge, which by the way, I hope she does come back in season 8 ( I know... she's dead but you never know.)

She's not necessarily really dead is she? She shared Ben's body, so wouldn't she just need another body? unless I'm not remembering something important that was said about her mythology, of course, which is entirely possible . It would be so much fun to see her again. She was one of the best villains ever!!!

No, the thing was that if the human side died the god would die... I really do hope the most stylish, bitchiest and sexiest hellgod ever returns in season 8!!!

Someone must have told her during the course of season 6. Plus, if Giles didn't kill Ben, Glory would have just got really pissed and killed everyone I'm sure (even though her plan didn't work, she would have still been a god.) I'm hoping for a return, though I'm not sure how they would pull it off. And really, Glory was such a catastrophic enemy (the only one Buffy couldn't stop entirely........not without dying at least) doing it again would soil the legacy left by the first one.

A few months ago i sent an e-mail to Georges Jeanty asking if Glory would return.Sadly,his answer was "no". He doesn't think she'll show up in Season 8.She's my favourite character Maybe we can make a petition or something to bring the greatest big bad back?

That's a good question. It seems like they would have told her that Ben was dead, even if Giles didn't admit killing him.
I loved Glory, too. She really rocked. She's my favorite Buffy villian of all time.

I think the Glory/Key arc is the best one of the show. I wouldn't want it to be ruined by having Glory return in some weird way.
It was made clear that she died. The First even took her form.
I feel like if they were to bring her back, all of the events in "The Gift" would have been in vain. Rendered senseless, since she just could come back anyway. Buffy's death needs to mean something. Keep her dead but have a ghost or flashback. That might be fun.

What would be really humorous is if she made an appearance in Angel season 6 with Halfreck, just in the background of one of Angel's great Darla flashbacks. Now there would be a conversation I'd like to hear.

I hope it's a brand new big bad for series 8, rather than bringing back an old one, so no, I hope we don't see Glory, her story's over and done with. I do hope we do see some of the minor 'baddies', as they stil have stories to explore, Rak, Ethan Rayne, D'Hoffryn (who I always thought was great), Halfrek (like xmadxscientistx mentioned) and of course Amy, who's already back

I'm sure that lots of the old demons etc that are alive will sure to make an appearance If there are over 90 issues planned, then Joss must have thought of whos coming back in to this thing already

Remember The First turned into Glory in Lessons. but what i was like wtf about was when Giles suffocated Ben. i was like STAB HIM, CUT OFF HIS HEAD, SHOOT HIM, SOMETHING THAT ENSURES THAT GLORY WON'T COME BACK YOU RETARD! cuz don't you think that one on glory's minions would find him and revive him?

Revive him from what? He was DEAD. As in no heart-beat. Probably no reviving a beaten-almost to death and smothered dead human.

I wouldn't be happy if Glory returned. Buffy needs to have new bad guys, not old villains returning.

I don't want Glory to return, but I'm surprised that she didn't cross my mind before.

If you listen to the commentarie for Lie My Parents Told Me (I think) in season 7 it is said that Ben/Glory is dead and there was a deleted scene during the graveyard bit with Buffy and Giles when he takes her away so that Robin could "kill" Spike. Anyhoo. Giles is talking to Buffy that she must do thing that she won't like...make the hard decisions. Like getting rid of Spike for the greater good and for the saftey of the potentials, Buffy argues that he is not a threat and that she's not gettign rid of Spike and that she CAN do what must be done. This is when Giles tells Buffy that when she defeated Glory and Ben returned she knew that Glory would return...Giles knew this too and even said it in The Gift beofre he killes Ben. Giles basically says that he killed Ben for the grearter good and that he did what she couldn't/wouldn't do. So Ben/Glory is dead and the secret was going to come out but it got deleted...damn producers! There is another scene that got removed in Chosen during Angel and Buffy's talk in the graveyard when they are talking about cookie dough and stuff. Angel mentions that he now has a son named Connor but Joss didn't think it was needed as it was baout giving Buffy and Angel's relationship closure and still leaving room for it to continue once Buffy has done baking. This is all in the commentaries if nobody believes me.

Grave, where did you hear that it will be 90 issues? it sounds great, but isn't season 8 going to be 40 issues and season 9 will be shorter? So less than 80 issues. Remember The First turned into Glory in Lessons. but what i was like wtf about was when Giles suffocated Ben. i was like STAB HIM, CUT OFF HIS HEAD, SHOOT HIM, SOMETHING THAT ENSURES THAT GLORY WON'T COME BACK YOU RETARD! cuz don't you think that one on glory's minions would find him and revive him? I agree. He should have made sure that Ben was absolutely dead. I mean, some mouth to mouth might have brought him back. But I'm madder at Buffy for not being strong enough to finish him, specially since she had Dawn and her friends to protect. I can respect the need to not get human blood on your hands, but I can't respect letting your family be in that kind of danger. (Not that I think I would have the guts, but I hope so).

Well, give Grave a bit of a break--his post was made SIXTEEN MONTHS (!!!) ago, when we had much less solid information about S8 and 9 to go by. That's one of the reasons threads this old shouldn't be bumped...

I can respect the need to not get human blood on your hands, but I can't respect letting your family be in that kind of danger. (Not that I think I would have the guts, but I hope so). Four minutes, and the brain's dead. The minions were scuttling, and some were still trying to keep anyone from reaching Dawn. I think there was no risk of that happening. And hey, just because you didn't see it doesn't mean that Giles didn't make sure, as you so delicately put it. And hello... mortal Slayer just pounded the Big Mac out of Glory's face. I think the point was clear; you're a hell-god. Big whoop. Can still kick your "skanky, lopsided..." behind. Plus, Dawn was screaming for help... which was more important to Buffy? Finish off the hell-god now, or go save lil sis before her blood starts the apocalypse? Buffy's the Slayer; the weight of the world matters more than settling a personal vengeance.
