Nicholas Brendan as Xander Harris
Xander is one of my favourite characters on BtVS, not only
because he's adorable, but also because he has some of the
best lines. Xander-wit is one of the best things about the
whole show, in my humble opinion. And then there's the fact
that he is adorable, isn't he?
Xander Harris is one of the "Slayerettes"- Buffy's friends who help her in her unending fight against darkness. Xander is known for having a bigtime crush on Buffy, not noticing Willow as anything other than a friend, and eventually dating Cordelia (who knew?). He is not the world's best student, but plays the part of "Research Guy" in order to help Buffy, and also regularily adds his sarcastic wit to any conversation.

Season One
1. Teacher's Pet: Xander has a crush on a beautiful teacher,
who seems to be returning his affection... Too bad she's not
quite what she seems...
2. The Pack: Xander and four other students start behaving
very strangely after a trip to the zoo.
Season Two
1. Inca Mummy Girl: Xander and Buffy's beautiful Mexican
exchange student hit it off bigtime. But alas, the course of true
love never did run smooth (for Xander at least)
2. Bewitched, Bothered & Bewildered: Xander admits his
growing affection for Cordelia with a Valentine's day present at
the same time she decided to break up, caving under pressure
from her ultra-snobby friends. Xander is humiliated, and
decides he deserves more respect- and he's going to use the
power of the Hellmouth to get it.
