Rating: Summary: Buffy seasons Review: This isn't a review, more so than a response to a fan from Haydenville,Ma. Viewer from Haydenville,Ma; Season 5 wasn't the series finale of the series! There are TWO MORE SEASONS of "Buffy". On October 2,2001 "Buffy" began her Season 6 on a new network known as UPN. The reason, is that 20th Century Fox didn't like the WB anymore, so they gave it to UPN, so UPN had "Buffy" on their network. On October 2,2001, they started Season 6,(a fine year, very different though),following the summer, Joss Whedon decided that Season 7 would be the last for him, and Sarah Michelle Geller decided that same decision as well because she didn't want to do the show without Whedon's guide, so during the summer it was planned for Season 7 to give the Slayer her final battle, which took all 22 episodes to set up, and on September 24,2002 they showed Season 7,(which was a awesome, yet misunderstood year as well, which had the Slayer defeat the First Evil, and his army, with her Slayer companions, such as Amanda, Vi, Kennedy, and Faith, having her and Spike's relationship get resolved, with the storyline of Spike's soul he got for her in Season 6), but anyway, once Joss Whedon wrote the premier, "Lessons", the countdown began with giving the Gang monsters and villains to fight, as well as Buffy all alone without a Watcher's Council , and loads of girls to train to be Slayers for the big battle, ending the series with the title called "Chosen", which had Sunnydale and the Scooby Gang on May 20, 2003 in a awesome battle you'd think only came from a blockbuster picture instead of a telelvision show! Giving Spike and Anya both heroic deaths, and giving Buffy a normal life! If you missed those seasons FX is now showing Season 6 reruns, and October 24 there's talk of FX rerunning Season 7!
Rating: Summary: my favorite all the way Review: the fifth season of Buffy is definitly the best by far!!! bringing dawn in i think was a good idea even though she's kinda a brat. i loved the entire Glory and Key thing, that was brillint and amazing!!!!!! i was also VERY glad to see spike come even more into the show. in the 4th season he became part of the gang but in the fifth he has so much more charecter and you get to see that he really cares about Buffy and Dawn. when the played "the body" i was just amazed. the show made me cry so much and even though it was sad, it had to happen. the episode was really well written though. the seris finale 'The Gift' blew me away. buffy's speech made me cry for about an hour and i was amazed that they really made her jump. i also loved the episodes when spike began to fall for buffy. it was really interesting to see his past and it was halarios seeing him trying to impress buffy. the 5th season is the best of them all and really (i think) brings the show together alot. if you miss this then you are missing the world.
Rating: Summary: Amazing Review: This is definently the best season of Buffy EVER. There are brand new characters. Dawn enters the show, and Glory is one of the best villains ever, if not the best. This season is full of heart-wrenching emotion. Characters leave and die. The Body, which is a more reallistic episode that centers around the death of a central character, is absolutely amazing. I think the season finale, The Gift, is the best episode of Buffy ever. It represents everything Buffy is. From the funny to the sad. And just because this season is very serious, doesn't mean it's all drama. Checkpoint is one of the funniest episodes ever. This is a great buy for any Buffy fan and anyone looking for some good quality television.
Rating: Summary: My favorite Season!! Review: I'm a huge fan of Buffy and this one for some reason is one of my favorite season. I love the developement, and how enriched the story telling is w/Dawn and the whole ending. To say I would of been happy this was the last season would be true. I felt this was nicely wrapped up and alot of things were well put to rest for a better term. There is alot of great moments, and the features on this is great. I've seen the Region 2 version and totally was happy w/the outtakes and well everything else. Though wished they could of done something for the 100th eps. I mean come one who would of thought that five years ago a show like this would last for SEVEN!! But it won me over and critics. This is a great season w/just a ton of action, and well done storylines I felt. W/an ending to the story that just was wonderful... so pick it up. Enjoy yet another creative season of the Joss and Co world!
Rating: Summary: The season that made me fall in love with the show Review: (In my opinion) Buffy-VS-Dracula was a poor excuse for a beginning episode. Though if played in the middle of the season, I might have liked it a little better. There was no real breaking moments, and come on, lets face it, it need some more James Marsters (Spike.) I was beginning to think season 5 would be like season 4 (a little too light and cheery, no plot) and I was really confused when they introduced Dawn. I was like, who the heck is she? But when things started coming together, early on in the season I started liking it more. Dawn was a great addition to the show. Where does Joss Whedon and co. think up this stuff? Really great idea having Dawn be 'The Key,' the thing that can open the Hellmouth. I have to admit, I NEVER saw it coming when Spike fell in love with Buffy. Can't say I was disappointed, though. Spike was (and is) my favorite character, so having him fall for the good guy is ok with me. Fool for Love was so...full of Spike, which automatically makes it okay with me :). I always wanted to see what Spike's past was like, and it's halarious that he was a poet! A bad poet, no less. Can't really say it surprised me, though, I always took Spike to be a romantic (in his own twisted way...) Also loved the way Spike comforted Buffy on the porch, made me think Spike might just be turning into a good guy. The Body was superb. It was so real, it just blew me away how amazing it was. I cried not only beacause it was so sad, but because it was so beautiful. It took me about an hour after the show had ended to realize that some time or other I had to get up from the couch. The only that could have made it better is if Spike had been in it. Yeah. Episode, The Gift...my gosh, where do I begin? I loved the way every character seemed to have a big part in it, and all contributed. This show made me hate Glory with a passion. And Buffy's speech made me CRY SO HARD! It was torture that they ended it the way they did, and it was (no joke) killing me until they started up Season 6. Season 5 was beautiful, funny, dramatic, and really made up for the of season 4 (or, you know, lack of.) Oh, just have to say this, wasn't a big fan of Tara in season 4, but in season 5 I fell in love with her, and accepted her as a Scooby. James Marsters rocks.
Rating: Summary: One of the Best Review: I have to say, I am a huge Buffy fan, but when i viewed this season, it soared high above what I had seen before. There was an exciting seasonal arch and stunning character development. Dawn's introduction to the show was handled well and was a fabulous edition to Buffy the Vampie Slayer. A near perfect season. Right up there with season three.
Rating: Summary: BtVS Lives Forever! Review: Gentle Readers: Buffy is the best show in the world, and if you don't already know that, you have been missing out on life for the past seven years. Season five is probably my favorite because a lot of discoveries are made: Dawn is the Key, Glory is a God, and Ben is..well..he's a confusing guy. Look forward to lots of laughs, apocalypses, and death. This is, after all, Buffy. As a dedicated, loyal "buffaholic," I would recommend this DVD to anyone who enjoys action, sly humor, drama, and romance all spun together. Buffy will go down in history forever as the show that broke all the rules, and what better way to re-live the memories? Go ahead. Don't be afraid. Buy Season Five...you won't regret it!
Rating: Summary: Where, oh where, did my Riley go.... Review: Unlike many Buffy viewers, I was a huge fan of the Buffy/Riley relationship. It wasn't really her most deeply profound relationship, but Riley was incredibly hot! He was also a marginally interesting character...sometimes. He deserved a better outing than he got. Other than that, Buffy's great...wonderful finale...'The Body' rules!
Rating: Summary: The Best Of The Best Review: This year, Buffy finished in America, Canada and the UK and Fox is now bringing out the best season of Buffy, EVER! This year sees the apperence of Dawn, Buffy's Sister!, hell god Glory arrive in Sunnydale, Riley leaves suddenly, Joyce dies as does Buffy. Joss Whedon recently said the episode he would of chosen for the last episode would have been The Gift, the finale of this season. Also expect an apperence from David Boreanaz.
Rating: Summary: Season 5 is one of the best. Review: When I watched the first episode of season 5, I thought it was pretty good. Then Dawn appeared, and I was worried. Normally, the introduction of a main character on a show 4 seasons old would equal horrible. Not true in this case. Brilliant. Almost as good as seasons 2, and 3.
