The original pitch for the character of Wesley was for him to be a bit like Michael J. Fox in Back to the Future (wiry, enthusiastic etc), and so to get on Giles’ nerves in that way. The writers eventually decided to try and make Giles look cooler and rebellious by making Wesley strait-laced. Joss’s original stage directions for Wesley were: “He thinks he’s Sean Connery but he’s actually George Lazenby”. |
