I'd rather he stayed away. First, because the actor is so irritating (it's a toss-up who's more petulant, Connor or Jess from "Gilmore Girls"). Second, because his departure was the one aspect of his entire story that pleased me. Bringing him back will almost certainly muck that up. With so little time left, I don't want to fritter any of it away on characters who don't interest me.

I'm also glad they can't bring back Buffy. Not, of course, because I dislike the character or Sarah, but because I enjoy having Buffy's story remain open, so she can wander free in my fantasy life. Plus, they can't do justice to the Angel/Buffy story in a the brief time they could spend on it. Lastly, it's a relief I won't have to listen to all the Buffy bashing her return would incite.

Let the core characters of "Angel" wrap up their show together.

in my opinion, this is the first season where "Angel" has stepped completely outside Buffy's shadow as an entirely different entity with different ideas and themes. It's finally exploring new territory, and bringing Buffy back would destroy a lot of that forward movement for me.

And I wholly agree about Connor. Crap character, even worse actor, and his exit from the show was terrific. I wanted to remember him from that final shot of Angel looking at him through the window (either that, or from when Faith beat the crap out of him).

...I soooo agree with the whole Connor/Jess statement.
