Justin, I can see your point about principal Wood. He appeared in a lot of episodes during that season of Buffy. I watched sporadically though season 7, but he never really grabbed me as an interesting character. Even his short-lived "relationship" with Faith didn't make me interested in watching him. I like the actor who plays him, though.
