I agree with Gabriel. I don't really see the point of him returning.

As for Death, it is only expected. The natural order was greatly upset last season, and I've always thought Death might step in with his reapers. After all, once the gates of Heaven/Hell are closed, reapers will be obsolete. I also think Death would probably be pissed with another human's constant resurrection (Bobby, in addition to Sam, Dean, Jimmy Novak+Castiel), not to mention a powerful being like Gabrioel (if he does come back, which I hope he deosn't).
