Once More With Feeling- love it!!!

Advantages: funny, musical, good for anyone even if not buffy fan, brilliant acting
Disadvantages: slightly cheesy

...when watching this episode of buffy is that it is FANTASTIC! Everything works so well together. The comedy, the music, the fighting. Brilliant. I will admit that i am biased as an addicted Scooby but i feel that anyone who hasnt been won over by the Buffy series before, this will definetly hit you with the buffy bug. Who knew they could all sing. This is even one for those who want to sit in and watch a classic musical. Even though it is a part of ...
...and one of my top ten that i own. The continuing of one of the forbidden loves of all time between buffy and spike. The first fight of the loved up witches. There is something for all in this feature length episode. You dont want to miss ou on it. ...

Where it All Began

Advantages: Great series, funny and thrilling.
Disadvantages: Some of the effects are a little outdated.

...true must have for any Buffy fan, this is the series that started it all. Join the original 'Scooby Gang' of Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Willow (Alyson Hannigan) and Xander (Nicholas Brendon) along with Buffy's watcher Giles (Anthony Stewart Head) as they embark on their very first adventures together in the somewhat ironically named 'Sunnydale', through the trials and tribulations of being teenagers, the responsibilty of being a butt-kicking ...
...'hell' that is high school. The special effects might not be wonderful by todays standards - but it is what it is. Great fun to watch the characters as they started out on somewhat hesitant ground, and some of the most original and great work of BTVS. Not to be missed. ...

Buffy Takes the Initiative

Advantages: Some amazing episodes, great seasonal arc and great performances
Disadvantages: One or two bad episodes

...boards that season four of Buffy the Vampire Slayer is where the show lost its way. I disagree - in my opinion the show only got bigger and better with each season. In season four, Buffy and Willow head off to the local university, whilst Xander moves into his parents basement and tries to find a direction in life. Giles is feeling a little useless with no job and nothing to do. I don't want to repeat the general information I put into my review ...
...the local UC Sunnydale, but Buffy soon finds herself in over her head. A vampire gang who kill students and steal their belongings soon appears, and it's up to Buffy to deal with them. This is a great season opener - we the viewer are plunged into the unfamiliar world of college along with Buffy, which works really well. Episode Two: Living Conditions Buffy has to deal with her annoying roommate in this episode - and she thinks there's something ...

Have A Little Faith in Buffy

Advantages: Great storylines, great new characters
Disadvantages: A couple of poor episodes

Season three saw Buffy the Vampire Slayer really getting into its stride. With more complex plots, the characters grew as much as the show itself. I don't want to repeat the general information I put into my review of seasons one and two, so I'll just jump straight into reviewing the characters and episodes. Check my profile for my reviews of the first two seasons! --Characters-- The mainstays from seasons one and two return as our fearless gang ...
...end of last season saw Buffy running away from home, and the season three opener picks up a couple of months later. Buffy's in LA, working as a waitress in a diner - but is there something more sinister going on with LA's disadvantaged youths? This is a rather weak start to the season, but the episode has its good moments. Episode Two: Dead Man's Party Buffy's friends decide to throw her a welcome home party, but as always in Sunnydale: it's not ...

Becoming Buffy

Advantages: Great characters, an excellent story arc, fantastic season finale
Disadvantages: A couple of bad episodes

Buffy the Vampire Slayer really found its feet in season two. It progressed from being a monster of the week show, to a show with a serious storyline, character and plot arcs. I don't want to repeat the general information I put into my review of season one, so I'll just jump straight into reviewing the characters and episodes. Read my review of season one here: http://dvd.ciao.co.uk/BuffyTheVampireSlayerSeason1CollectionDVDRev iew5767154 ...
...out of her shell, and Buffy grows up a lot as she deals with the hand life has dealt her. There are some wonderful new characters in this season, amongst them the infamous Spike. The bleach blonde vampire is played by James Marsters with aplomb and despite the slightly dodgy English accent is a fantastic character. Accompanying Spike is the insane Drusilla; another English character played by an American - in this case Juliet Landau. Spike and Dru ...
