...how much the Mayor really cares for Faith when he tries to reassure himself that she will be all right. About the DVDs The DVD set contains six discs, with pictures of the characters on each disc. The audio and picture are crisp and clear, and the menus are easy to navigate. The special features include director commentary on "Helpless," "Bad Girls," "Consequences," and "Earshot" and scripts for "Faith, Hope and Trick," "Band Candy," "Lover's Walk," and "The Wish." There are also a few featurettes (about the special effects, weapons, clothes, and dialogue), a season 3 overview, cast biographies, and a still gallery. These are some fantastic extras, and there's nothing more a Buffy fan could ask for. (Although some cast commentary might be nice).

...***************** Background ***************** The phenomenally successful series Buffy the Vampire Slayer returns for its third season on DVD. The series focuses on the life of Buffy Summers, high school student by day, super strong vampire slayer by night. Although you could start watching Buffy from this season (after all I originally started watching in season 5) its not recommended, as you would not fully understand the story lines. ****************** The Packaging ****************** As with season 2 the dvd's are encased within an impressive book. Each dvd being protected in a seperate page with fluffy lining, the book also contains a useful episode guide. Once more the book fits nicely into a cardboard sleeve, this is a purple colour with a big picture of Buffy on the front. The case measures a substantial 16cm x 20cm x 2.5cm... Read review
