Answer: Spike

Fans of the show responded so favorably to the character of Spike that writers decided to keep him on the show instead of killing him off.

Answer: seasons 1 and 7

I got this little tidbit from amazon.com's site.

6. Which killed-off character's portrayer was supposed to make an appearance in season 7's "Conversation With Dead People" but didn't?

Answer: Amber Benson (Tara)

Amber Benson didn't want to come back as a "villain", so they had Cassie Newton (from season 7 episode "Help") speaking on behalf of Tara.

7. Which of the following powers was Dawn originally supposed to have?

Answer: the power to talk to the dead

Dawn was originally supposed to have the ability to talk to the dead and to move things with her mind, but apparently the writers thought that being the key was enough!

8. How many characters appeared in at least one episode in all 7 seasons?

Answer: 5

Buffy, Willow, Xander, Giles, and Joyce are the only ones to have appeared in all 7 seasons. Another interesting tidbit I found on the Amazon website.

9. Which character was originally supposed to be in "The Trio" with Warren and Jonathon?

Answer: Tucker

Tucker ("The Prom") is Andrew's older brother. Nobody can remember Andrew's name at first, so they all call him "Tucker's brother".

Answer: Andrew

Andrew thought for sure that he was going to die, but the writers for the show had other plans...
