Buffy tastic! The Buffy the Vampire Slayer Box Set

Advantages: great entertainment
Disadvantages: none

As you'd expect each case also contains a little booklet telling you about each episode and the extras on the discs. The title screens ...
...was to get all the Buffy episodes together! The episodes: The humour and stories are just as good as I remembered them and I would utterly and without reservation recommend this box set to anyone who has fond Buffy memories! **also published on dooyoo under the same name** ...
