Important Note Dan Vebber is the only writer to have written more for another character than Buffy, that character is Xander. Unfortunately Vebber only wrote 2 episodes, so we dont know if this trend would have continued. However even if Xander did not speak in Vebbers fictional third episode, Xander would still have had a higher line per episode score from Vebber than Forbes
