Summary: The best
Review: This was by far the best season of the series and would have made an exceptional end to the show. Even though the following two seasons were bad at times I was still thankful to have two more seasons afterward. I hated the character Adam from the prior season and was so happy to get a strong villain in Glory, wrapped up in a mythological tale this season. People can go on and on complaining about Dawn but I'm sure they are just seeing the annoying things within themselves that they certainly experienced during their early teen years. I was fascinated when they introduced her to the show and I liked her character this season ( Unfortunately they didn't strengthen her much the following seasons ). She became an integral part of the mythology this season and definetly wrapped a great deal of emotion in the season ender "The Gift", one of the most heartfelt moments in television history. This episode was pure emotion in which our hero selflessly gives her life to save mankind. At the time I didn't realize the show was going to UPN and I thought that I had just seen the last episode and was I must shamefully say in a funk for a week until I found out about the network switch. I can go on but put simply this is the season to own.

Summary: BUFFY FANATIC
Review: If you are a fan of Buffy, buy this DVD. Season 5 contains many character developing episodes and the introduction of Dawn, Buffy's "little sister". More importantly however, this is the season where Spike (James Marsters) becomes more than just a really cool gimmick and really part of the gang, shining almost as bright as Buffy herself. Let's not forget that this is the season where Willow truly begins to find her power and flex her Wiccan muscles. As in all the seasons, this one is filled with action, humor, emotion, and universal problems that every viewer can relate to in one way or another. The DVD is well worth the cost to loyal fans and newbies alike.

Summary: Excellent
Review: This is one of the best seasons of Buffy by far. Every season of Buffy has one of the best episodes of the series and season five is no exception. You will never find a better episode than "Fool for Love" or "The Gift." This is a great season of Buffy and it is one of the best Spike seasons in the series. We really see him go through many changes that make him a better character in the end. James Marsters does an excellent job as Spike and he makes this DVD worth your money.Michelle Trachtenberg also does a fantastic job as Dawn, a character Buffy fans either love or hate. Her performance in the episode where she learns she is the key is excellent. I have never seen a young actress display that kind of pain and depth before.

Summary: Good season, not the best though
Review: I started watching Buffy on the fifth season. And I liked it alot. I thought it would be all serious and no one cracking any jokes. Now where did I get that idea?? I'm from the Philippines, and they aren't really that up to date with foreign tv shows. So when I got here I bought the first four seasons. Those were really good seasons, and season five was as good too. The gift was an amazing season finale. I loved the whole show, even the sixth and seventh season. But the fifth season will always be memorable for me because it was the season that introduced me to the imagination of Joss Whedon. God, that guy is a genius. I will definetly buy this DVD and you should too!!!

Summary: Should have been the final season
Review: Season 5 of buffy was the perfect way to end the series. Sadly, they contiuned to flog this dead horse and seasons 6 and 7 simply did not compare. "The Body" maganged to portray grief over the loss of a loved one in a realistic and still fictionally compelling way. This season was still when Buffy was at it's best. Stick with this one if you haven't seen the rest and remember....she saved the world alot. Dark show, dark ending, the way it should have been.

Summary: The Best Season of the Best Television Show Ever Made
Review: Buffy season 5 was the peak. Joss Whedon started the series with BUFFY VS. DRACULA, which looked like it was just going to be funny till the last moments ('WHAT!' we screamed? 'Where did Buffy get a [surpressed]?') Since he didn't know if the series would be renewed, Whedon brought all the threads together in the end for THE GIFT. In between were many of the best shows the series ever did, and an outstanding overall series arc.My highest possible recommendation.

Summary: Season Five: Classic
Review: This, my friends, is the true Buffy, right here. This season, though maybe not as amazing as season two, has just about everything one could ask for in a season of Buffy: a concrete arc that is continuous throughout the season, hilarious and yet very relative stand-alone episodes such as The Replacement and Crush, great character developments for Willow as a Wiccan, Xander as a man, and Buffy as a fighter, and the classic episode Fool for Love that has an amazing portrayal of Spike's past that semi-overlaps with 'Darla' in AtS's season two. This season has its funny moments, such as the Harmony-Spike relationship towards the beginning of the season; its serious moments, in the episodes 'The Body' and 'Forever'; and a fabulous season finale of 'The Gift'. This is defenitely a must-have of the Buffy collection.

Summary: Definitely Great and Brilliant
Review: Since the first episode aired, "Buffy vs. Dracula", I knew this season would be awesome, and it was, next great episodes were "Listening to Fear", "Into the Woods","Checkpoint", "The Body", "Forever", "Spiral", "The Weight of the World", great episodes that fit
in on the season just right, but I was watching "The Weight of the World" in that past May 2001, when I saw next week's season finale preview "The Gift" I got so exicted, that days felt months, "The Gift" started, chills surrounded my arms with the
"Previously on Buffy the Vampire Slayer..." and of course I confess I cried with Buffy's narration to Dawn and when she jumped from the top of the tower to the portal. I thought 'is this it? no more Buffy?' I recorded the episode and watch it again and again... I check a Buffy fan web on August and I see "Buffy lives" Season six.
Definitely you have to buy Season five, great writing and interesting episodes. Coming December, 9th.
