I will lose the last shred of respect for the show if Glenn is alive.
From a story standpoint it'd be a terrible idea to fake his death. That would be some horrible, bullshit writing if they did. It's okay when happenstance and coincidence gets your characters into trouble, but when you use it to get them out of trouble, that's when the audience rolls their collective eyes and goes, "Yeah, right." You might love them for just a minute because Glenn was still around, but you'd hate them for doing it in such a shitty way.
For all the morons saying oh but they didn't talk about him in Talking Dead!!!
Gimple didn't want to come out and say anything too specific about what's coming up, because he never comes out and says anything specific about what's coming up. But they needed to let Hardwick know why Steven Yeun wasn't available to appear on Talking Dead when that's been the tradition for pretty much everyone else who died before. Hence the written statement: It's not the last time we'll see Glenn, he'll be back in some way / shape / form in one or more future episodes.
Which I'm pretty comfortable saying means he'll be back for one or more flashbacks very soon, possibly next episode, in order to bring some kind of closure to his story. And when that's done, when he's had his actual last appearance on the show, Yeun will appear on Talking Dead and they can give him the proper send-off he deserves.
Sorry you wasted your time posting this lol

Absolutely stupid then
At first glance it seems dumb but let's see how they spin it. You'll just have to wait until episode 7
