Summary: Buffy at it's Best
Review: This is definitely one of the best seasons of Buffy. It brings in many fan favorites to the show including Anya, Riley and Tara. I am a HUGE Buffy fan and I watched the entire DVD in 3 days...that's how good it was and intrigued I became. This definitely comes in a close second behind season 3 as the best Buffy has to offer!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Season Four Is A Terrific Season!
Review: There are a lot of complaints here about season Four with people saying it's the worst season, they should have kept them in high school etc but I think season Four is one of the best seasons and I liked how they all handled all of the changes in their lives, start of college, beginnings and endings of relationships, loss of jobs etc and I just think there are a lot of good episodes and I love the addition of Spike as a main character. Riley is not Angel but he's not that bad and I liked how he defended Buffy when Parker was making suggestive comments about her. Adam was not the best big bad but he was okay and I actually didn't mind the Inititive so all in all not a bad season at all in my opinion.

Many great episodes but the best is Hush. Also a lot of people didn't like Beer Bad, yes it's a very silly episode but I enjoyed it and I loved Cave Buffy's reaction to Parker's apology, that scene is priceless! It was graet too see Cave Buffy conk sleazy Parker on the head with a club!

I also like that they made Harmony a vampire, during the high school seasons when she was human and Cordelia's friend I didn't find the character all that interesting but I think she is great as a vampire and very funny!

I really recommend this DVD set it's so worth buying to add to your Buffy collection!

The only episode I was kind of disappoined with was Pangs, I just wish they could have come up with a more peaceful solution but this set is worth it for all the other episodes.

A lot of the haters of the 4th season seem to hate it because Buffy, Willow and Xander are no longer in high school but come on get real do you really expect them to be in high school forever? Get over it! and as for the complains about no Angel and Cordelia. Just watch the spinoff Angel as well as Buffy!

Summary: Buffy goes to college
Review: Many BUFFY fans say the 4th season with Riley and his initiative is the weakest of the lot,but I agree with other reviewers who have pointed out that that the good stuff outweighs the,um,not so interesting.I,myself,find the iniative thing kinda lacking but,hey,there are great episodes here and the growth of the characters is fun to watch.HUSH is positively creepy in ways BUFFY has never been before.Plus Faith returns to wreak havok.The picture and sound are great,although there is a note from Joss explaining why these episodes aren't in widescreen and apologizes for the crummy episode!.I wonder which one he means?
Oh well,this season is still well worth your time.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: If it weren't funny it would suck...
Review: I've always thought that this was Buffy's worst season. Not that every great show can't have an off year or so, especially when you end up with seasons like 3 and 7 which are just amazing, it's just that this season seemed kinda off. Between Angel and Cordelia leaving, and Oz leaving like 6 episodes in, the show had to adjust to some major cast changes, and honestly Riley and Anya both sucked horribly this year.

I know that there are lots and lots of people out there who think Willow becoming a lesbian was great for gay pride and feminism, and congratulations to you, but Willow becoming a lesbian has always and will always be my largest problem with the show. When it first happened it seemed very forced, and it still does. Yeah, Will was suffering a lot since Oz ditched her and she needed somebody to get close to. But Tara? Come on, she is the ugliest wussiest loser ever. I was so glad when she finally got shot in season 6. Tara almost ruined the entire show, not by being a lesbian, but by causing the show to do something that made it go "mainstream" and show an issue relevant to the real world as opposed to the maid-up world of Sunnydale. The only thing that saved this show was Spike.

Spike is amazing. James Marsters puts more humor, heart, and joy into a vampire than anyone ever has. He's ruthless yet he's forgiving, he's a murderer, yet he's lonely for friends. And even with that stupid chip in his head, he's still a badass. Spike, thanks for saving this show and for turning what would have been a humorless dismal seaon into one that is worth watching time and time again simply because of you. Buy and watch this season for Spike if for no other reason.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely Fantastic!!
Review: This DVD set is the best so far. Great characters, great writing, and great plots. I recommend this season to any fan or the casual viewer. Don't miss out on this wonderful season.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Season 4-Misunderstood
Review: Buffy has now arrived at UCSunnydale, and is facing a number of new challenges. One of them being her roommate, Kathy, and a group of mysterious commandos who have been seen around the campus.
the best part of this season is how much the charachters grow. Each of the charachters grow apart from each other during the season, thn come together in the end to kick some butt! Willow is dumped by Oz, leading to some drowning of sorrows. She ends up becoming gay, and encountering Tara, a part of her Wicca group. Xander has an array of different odd jobs, and resides in his parents basement. He rekindles his relationship with Anya, the ex-demon. Giles begins a private life with Olivia, his friend, and deals with no longer being Buffy's watcher. Buffy has trouble adjusting to college, and gets a new boyfriend, Riley.
Critics didn't like this season and regarded it as incoherent. One reason is that the big villain of the season, demonoid, cyborg "Adam" is not introduced until after half of the season has begun. And, Adam's charchter is not developed like the big villain has been in the past with Spike, and the Mayor. But you must see that this season is not about the villain but the journey that these people have taken their freshman year of college. They all did different things, and in the end, ended up together.
Best Episodes: The Freshman,Harsh Light of Day, The initiative, Emmy nominated Hush, the i in Team, Goodbye Iowa, the yoko Factor, Primeval, and the season finale Restless.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Joss Whedon is a genius
Review: OK, I didn't get into Buffy until this year, where I was able to watch the DVDs from seasons 1 through 3 all at once, but as much as I liked the show I couldn't see why people felt so strongly about it, until I got the season 4 DVD set that is. Joss Whedon is firing on all cylinders in this season, it's more thematically connected than the previous seasons were, while there were main story lines in seasons 1 through 3 there were episodes that didn't really fit into the main story arc for each season. In season 4 though the writing team really comes through, even episodes such as _Beer Bad_ and _Living Conditions_, which are two of the lighter and funnier episodes tie in with the themes that are developed later on in _The Initiative_ and _Hush_.
And then there are the episodes that are absolutely brilliant, such as _Hush_, which contains the most frightening villains of the whole series, The Gentlemen, _The Initiative_, where we learn that the government knows about vampires and demons and is trying to do something about them, and _Restless_ where we get to see the dreams of each member of the gang and which is one of the funniest episodes of the season as well as one of the most foreboding. Definitely worth purchasing, now I wish that they'd get off the dime and release seasons 5 and 6 on DVD in the US.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Another good season
Review: Buffy Season 4 is another strong season all though it's not as good as Season 3. A lot happens Buffy goes to college where she meets her new love interest Riley Finn. Riley's part of a secret military initiative that captures vampires and demons. Willow's b/f Oz leaves Sunydale to find a cure to being a Werewolf. When he's gone Willow discovers that she's into girls and meets a witch named Tara that she starts seeing. Spike is captured by the initiative and a chip is put in his head that keeps him from hurting humans. Faith wakes from her coma and starts right back to having cat-fights with Buffy. She even switches bodies with her and sleeps with Riley in Buffy's body. The villain of the season is a half human half demon half robot named Adam. He was created by the initiative and becomes out of control and only Buffy can stop him.

The best and most memorable moment of the season is when the Gentleman come to town in the episode Hush. They're a group of beings that rob the town of Sunydale of their voices so they can't scream when they steal their hearts. In all this is another good season and a must have for Buffy fans.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: In between
Review: I'm going to say I totally love buffy but and I think season 4 is awesome but I still think season six is better because of the muscial.
