Between Giles and Willow, and later, Tara, it can be a bit much. It seems that too many actors use stuttering (or too many directors allow it) to portray character traits ranging from self-doubt to high-energy thinking (worst example, IMO: Jeff Goldblum). The good news is that the stuttering wanes a little in all three of these characters, for various reasons. A certain amount of stuttering with Giles is appropriate, I believe, as he is at times naturally quite befuddled, or even frustrated, with Buffy's non-traditional way of doing things, dealing with a range of personalities and issues from the Scoobies, and walking a tight-rope between these things and the stodgy paternalistic order of the Watcher's Council. There's also a certain amount of self-imposed tight-arseness that he feels he needs to maintain to keep order and discipline in the watcher/slayer relationship. As the series progresses, there is a bit less of this push-pull (or at least it morphs a bit).   See 1 other reply
