often reveal; suddenly Buffy has a younger sister, has always had a younger sister. Michelle Trachtenberg as the moody, gawky Dawn achieves the considerable triumph of walking into an established stock company of well-known characters--Xander, Willow, Giles and so on--with the perfect assurance of a long-term member of the cast. Of course, nothing is as it seems; even Glory, the mad brain-sucking beauty in a red dress who is the villain of the year, turns out to be even more than she seems. Sarah Michelle Gellar as Buffy manages to convey heartbreak, self-involvement and real heroism as her relationship with her emotionally dense soldier boyfriend Riley hits the shoals and the blonde vampire Spike starts to show an altogether inappropriate interest.This season is also about the hard truth that there are some enemies it is impossible to fight. Even being around Buffy and Dawn is dangerous for their friends, as Glory and her minions proceed by a process of elimination. The eventual confrontation, when it comes, is genuinely shocking. Meanwhile, the vampire Spike's obsessed desire for Buffy takes them both to some very strange places and Willow and Tara have their love tested in the most gruelling of ways. And in the quietly upsetting episode "The Body", the cast produce their most impressive performances yet as they have to deal with another enemy they cannot fight. --Roz Kaveney

The seventh and final series ofBuffy the Vampire Slayerbegins with a mystery: someone is ... more
murdering teenage girls all over the world and something is trying hard to drive Spike mad. Buffy is considerably more cheerful in these episodes than we have seen her during the previous year as she trains Dawn and gets a job as student counsellor at the newly rebuilt Sunnydale High. Willow is recovering from the magical addiction which almost led her to destroy the world, but all is not yet well with her, or with Anya, who has returned to being a Vengeance demon in "Same Time, Same Place" and "Selfless", and both women are haunted by their decisions.Haunting of a different kind comes in the excellent "Conversations with Dead People" (one of the show's most terrifying episodes ever) where a mysterious song is making Spike kill again in spite of his soul and his chip. Giles turns up in "Bring on the Night" and Buffy has to fight one of the deadliest vampires of her career in "Showtime". In "Potential" Dawn faces a fundamental reassessment of her purpose in life.Buffywas always a show about female empowerment, but it was also a show about how quite ordinary people can decide to make a difference alongside people who are special. And it was also a show about people making up for past errors and crimes. So, for example, we have the excellent episodes "Storyteller", in which the former geek/super villain Andrew sorts out his redemption while making a video diary about life with Buffy; and "Lies My Parents Told Me", in which we find out why a particular folk song sends Spike crazy. Redemption abounds as Faith returns to Sunnydale and the friends she once betrayed, and Willow finds herself turning into the man she flayed. Above all, this was always Buffy's show: Sarah Michelle Gellar does extraordinary work here both as Buffy and as her ultimate shadow, the First Evil, who takes her face to mock her. This is a fine ending to one of television's most remarkable shows. --Roz Kaveney

Advantages: Great plot arc, great characters and storylines Disadvantages: None
Season five of Buffy the VampireSlayer is bigger, better and more ambitious than any that came before it. With what appears to be an undefeatable opponent, a new little sister and her mother's illness, Buffy has a lot to deal with.
I don't want to repeat the general information I put into my review of seasons one, two, three and four, so I'll just jump straight into reviewing the characters and episodes. Check my profile for my reviews of the first four seasons!
--Characters--
As always, the fab four return for another season: Buffy, Willow, Xander and Giles. Joining them are love interests Anya, Tara and Riley, and the now-harmless vampire Spike.
The new character to this season is Buffy's younger sister, Dawn. What sister, you might ask, if you've seen seasons one to four. Well, exactly! This is one of the major plot ...
Advantages: EXTRA EPISODES, GOOD INTERVEWS,GOOD EFFECTS Disadvantages: SCENERY A BIT DARK IN PLACES
i have watched buffy the vampire since the very begining and was hooked from the very first episode where she learns that she is the only slayer. i love the struggle between good and evil and been a slayer and trying to be a ordinary teenager.
the best scences that i loved was when she first meets angel and does not know he is a vampire. the journey they go on to discover each others identidy and have feelings for each other that are supposed to be forbidden is excellent viewing.
all the other characters such as willow xander and claudellia are brilliant as part of buffys scooby gang and provide excellent humour and satire to the series.
buffys struggle to keep her normal life and her slayer life a secret from her mother also provides thought and scences of struggle between two identities. trying to please both hes mother and watcher ...
Advantages: The shows ongoing storylines, the emotion Disadvantages: will leave you feeling very depressed once it's over!
My eldest sister bought the seasons 1-7 boxset of 'Buffy the vampireslayer' a number of years ago. Following this purchase, she suggested herself, our stepsister and I watch them. Having no opinion of the show, since I had not previously watched it, I agreed. Little did I know that this exact show would be so captivating and exciting.
Season 1 : -
I have to be honest and admit here that I did find the first season of Buffy boring, to be frank. In comparison to the other six seasons, this one did fail to impress me. However, understanding that it was filmed in 1996/1997, I can let it slide.
Buffy Ann Summers began her first year at 'Sunnydale high,' as she moved to LA with her mother, Joyce. Following her meeting with the school's librarian, Rupert Giles, she discovers that he is in fact, her watcher.
Buffy makes friends ...
