Summary: It could've been better but hey I am a fan...
Review: I have watched the series on tv for a while now and was happy when the DVD came. The quality could have been better though; the effects could have been cleaned up a bit. It was better than when watching it on tv since no commercials and no lil icon in the corner of your screen. I did like the special features too; I was glad when Joss explained in the interview why the vamps turned to dust on the series when in the original movie they didn't (because that had been bugging me.) :o) All in all I was happy with it and the interviews but hey I am a fan so...
I am hoping that Season 2 will do a bit better of a job with effects and have longer interviews.

Summary: Oh I am so happy to have this!!!!! :)
Review: This DVD set of season 1 of Buffy (12 eps as it was a midseason replacement) is just wonderful. The quality is a little shaky in a few places but it is basically good. Besides, all the eps are here, unlike the VHS release which left out crucial eps like the season ended Prophecy Girl which is a must have! There are a lot of nice little extras thrown in that makes it all the better. If you are a Buffy fan, you gotta have this and, while you are at it, go ahead and order season 2. :)

Summary: DVD Video Quality Extremely Poor.
Review: Extremely disappointed with DVD video quality. I've downloaded video files from the Internet that look better than these. These discs are sub-VideoCD quality; very poor job and not worth the price. You'll end up with better quality if you tape the shows from TV using even a modest quality VCR; seriously!

Summary: It all begins here ...
Review: And this is where the TV's greatest show begins. From its humble Season One beginnings, BtVS has come a long, long way ...If you have seen Season One before, there are no surprises here. The season arc focuses on Buffy taking on the Master. Angel makes a few appearances. Willow and Xander are their most nerdy / geeky (respectively). Cordi adds the biting sarcasm to the show. I couldn't help but notice how short / tight Buffy's clothes were back then (sex sells right?). Basically, the stage is set for all the characters we have grown to love as they evolve from angst-ridden teens battling demons to young adults with their own demons (the current season six). FYI: for a complete description of the episodes that make up this season, visit [the website] The picture quality is good (for the most part). Creator Joss Whedon does the commentary on the first couple of the episodes and sheds some interesting info on some of the thinking behind the scenes. There is a very, very short interview with David Boreanaz (Angel) which will disappoint most Angel fans as he says nothing of substance, and the interview is so brief you hardly have time to drool! Otherwise, the DVD is light in the way of features, but it is a must for Buffy-maniacs everywhere. I can't wait for season two to come out. Hopefully the DVD offering will improve, as the show did in that season.

Summary: surprised me that is for sure
Review: I'm not sure why I bought this. I had never watched the show and it did not seem to be my type of thing. I however have recently become a big Smallvile fan, the old comic collector in me made me watch it. People kept telling me that if I liked Smallville I should watch Buffy. With 12 episodes for [the price] I figured I couldn't lose. So I bought the thing. I have to admitt I really like it too. It's no Emmy award winning drama, but it sure is fun. The stories are great and I really like the charecters. Hopefully they'll start releasing the DVDs faster so I can get caught up. If you haven't watched it give it a try. It is a little cheesy but it is sure better than most of those mindless sitcoms out there.

Summary: It's about time!
Review: I resisted watching BTVS for quite a while (2 seasons, in fact); I figured it was just overblown hype about pretty teens out battling poor excuses for network vampires. Was I ever wrong! This is probably the most consistently entertaining and well-written show on television. The characters are complex, the monsters are fantastic, and the storylines never cease to amaze me. Joss Whedon is a god!
Enough of the gushing? Ok, this set of DVDs is quite good. For anyone who hasn't been able to watch all the early shows, this is your chance to find them back-to-back and uninterrupted. There aren't a lot of extras on these DVDs (and thus the reasonable price), but Whedon's commentary and the cast interviews are very interesting. I have enjoyed watching these early shows and seeing these young characters mature and develop so much. It's amazing to see the earliest parts of the BTVS mythology; it's even more amazing that this show is true to its own myths, and Whedon weaves this element into all the shows. This isn't just a show for teens--trust me, I'm a 30-something who watches the show religiously. If you are brand new to Buffy, for goodness' sake, tune in and watch the show. If you are a faithful fan, I don't know how you can avoid owning this DVD set.

Summary: One of the best TV shows out there
Review: I didn't start watching BTVS until it was on FX and a 24 hour marathon. I was hooked. This show is the one I can't miss no matter what. My life on Tuesday night revolves around Buffy. This is a great idea if you've just started watching. You recieve background info on the main characters. I just pop it in my DVD player and watch my fav episodes over and over such as Angel, Prophecy Girl, and a few others

Summary: The Best Show on Television
Review: Anytime I've heard negative things about Buffy, its usually from someone who has never really paid attention to the show or has only seen a couple of episodes. Most shows on tv will have their "bad" moments, but they are rare with the series. Even a least liked episode is still a favorite! The first season is a great introduction to Buffy. The series starts where the 1992 movie left off. The same creator/writer (Joss Whedon) digs deeper and manages to make the demon world seem real. The dialogue is superb with wit, the action is fun, and for the horror fan you've got enough demons to keep yourself entertained and longing for more. Out of 6 seasons of this show, the 2nd season remains my absolute favorite (see my review for that), but you need to see the first season to understand some of the background on crucial characters like Angel. Drama, suspense, comedy, a talented cast and great writing makes this the best show on television! I got my friends hooked with these episodes so don't be afraid to get it!

Summary: A must-buy for any Buffy fan!
Review: Buffy the Vampire Slayer's first season is a must-own for fans who have just started watching the series and die-hard viewers like me who have been watching from the beginning. In my opinion, this season is not as strong as season 2, but definitely worth the purchase price and also gives you the origins of the characters and relationships that give the later seasons more poignancy and edge. Wish the DVD had more extras - it does fun stuff like Joss commentary and a first-episode script, but I wanted more secrets of the origin of the show and how the characters got developed. All in all, it's worth your time to sit and watch all the way through!
