Could bring Giles back into the spotlight.
IGN: SDCC 07: Whedon Says Ripper Still Planned
Those who did attend the panel found out that Joss Whedon, the increasingly iconic and simultaneously reclusive creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Firefly has plans for a new Buffy spin-off. And not in comic books this time, but on television!
It's called Ripper and it's been rumored and discussed and speculated about for years. This time Whedon has said that things are getting closer. He's "talking to Anthony Stewart Head" to reprise his role as Rupert Giles, Buffy's "Watcher." It will be a BBC production and run 90 minutes. No word yet on whether we're looking at a pilot, a one-off, or what could happen. But Whedon says it looks possible for "next year." This is as close as we've come in a long time to any new Buffy hitting the air.
Of course, Whedon's been making Buffy spin-off claims for years without anything coming of them. Still, it's nice to see he hasn't forgotten about it. And with the Wonder Woman movie off the table, his schedule just might be open enough.

(*Yes I know there are the comics and yes I need to get around to catching up on them but I've been cheap lately and ignoring them.)
