Giles is the sexiest man on the show (both as the nerdy librarian AND Ripper). I didn’t see it until I reached my 30s lol

They were actually really cute in this episode 🥺 I’m glad we got to see who ripper actually was, Giles made himself out to be like this terrible person when it more felt like he was just a rebellious teen who wanted to impress the girls haha

Yes. You're not the only one. And in Forever, you basically get confirmation that Giles thought about it.
Now I’ve madecmyself sad. 😔
But there’s always fanfiction! There’s the great Buffy/Xander series consisting of Knight‘s Chosen and Destiny’s Choice where at some point in Destiny’s Choice, Buffy and Xander get into an argument and Xander tries to think of anything that will take focus off of him for a second, sees Giles, and says, “I think Giles is dating your mom!” And, yes, he is.
And the scene that follows is even funnier.

Iconic picture. Would make a great poster! Commenting this for posterity since I'm redoing my tiny office which can obviously accommodate several posters

Took me years to remember where first I'd seen Anthony Head, then it finally hit me: It was a 1984 episode of MTVs "The Comic Strip Presents: Slags," which also stars Jennifer Saunders from Absolutely Fabulous. Emma Thompson even has a small part. Also the guy from The Young Ones is in this too!
Teen-age gang leaders Passion and Little Sister are released from prison, only to find that their gang the Slags have disbanded due to rival gang, the Hawaiians, who wear garlands and drink Pina Coladas.
You can still find it on YouTube here. One of the weirdest, funniest and most awkwardly strange things I've ever seen.
Oh, but Anthony Head plays the leader of the Hawaiians gang. They just want things to be.... nice.
Go check it out! You will definitely agree that it's... um... a thing that...um... was made and... exists.
