TV show reviews: Buffy the Vampire Slayer

that would make him try to defend his girls even though they were more powerful than him and who stood beside them even when he thought they were wrong. He had a wonderful sense of humor and kept them together through the hard times by using that wit, along with his powerful speeches and comforting hugs. And sometimes, he actually came up with the answer to their problems (such as the Judge and Adam).

Giles, the father figure to not only Buffy, but Willow and Xander as well. The straight laced British guy that had to learn a new kind of language to communicate with the others. The one that had all the book knowledge and the wisdom to guide these three teenagers through their high school year. But don't let the tweed fool you.
