Tony's abusive behavior toward his son has left Xander with deep psychological scars.

Tony was unemployed, alcoholic, and verbally abusive toward his wife and son. According to Willow Rosenberg, he was not respectful to the religious beliefs of others, having got noticed in her Bat Mitzvah. The First Slayer exploited Xander's fear of his father in his dreams. At Xander's wedding, Tony's bigoted attitude toward Anya's demonic guests incited a riot between the two families.

Behind the Scenes

  • He was portrayed by Michael Harney and Casey Sander.
