Review: So much happens during this season and its ends on such a high and leaves you wanting more. I can imagine the torture for people who watched it when it was on tv when this season ended and they had to wait for the next. I big improvement over the first season because of the money obviously put into the show. What people really didn't notice about the show it seems is that some of the actors are extremely talented regardless of how campy this show may be sometimes. I recommend this to people who feel negatively toward this show now.

Summary: Great series, Lousy DVD transfer
Review: I'm a huge Buffy fan and was very excited to get the series on box set DVD. At the very least, I was expecting what everyone expects when they buy something on DVD...a great picture! Much to my surprise, I was terribly disappointed by the visual quality on this set. The picture is grainy, flat, and has no depth. The colors even seem off compared to the TV broadcast. It looks like about as good as a S-VHS copy when I used to tape the shows. It's a little better than VHS, but falls far short of the broadcast quality. To make matters even worse, I'm noticing a lot of blurring effects whenever there's any fast motion on the screen. You might see a similar effect on poorly captured video clips on your computer, but I've never seen this before on any DVD I've ever watched and it's terribly annoying. After checking the newsgroups, the poor quality issue was a very common topic among other fans, too. It was pointed out that Seasons 1 and 2 were shot on 16mm rather than 35mm like the rest of the seasons, but to have a DVD look pitiful next to even the broadcast version is inexcusable. A little time in the lab with some color correction and proper video compression could have made all the difference in the world, but it looks like the execs weren't concerned with picture quality. It looks like they transferred this from an old VHS tape. Fox and Whedon really dropped the ball on this one. A total disappointment.

Review: I very much enjoyed the first Season Volume of Buffy. Each episode (with the exception of the last one) was good lighthearted fun. The ending left me wanting to know what happened next. But wanting to know what happened next in a, whenever I get around to buying the next volume, kind of way, And frankly sometimes I need a little help getting motivated. Fortunately, while doing some grocery shopping I found the second season and like the first season grabbed it on an impulse. The first season got me interested; the second season got me hooked. The theme from the first season was all about starting out and getting a feel for things. I think the theme for this season is about love as every character falls into sort of a love triangle with each other. Fortunately towards the end each character kind of resolves his or her issues and finds true love with someone. The first episode shows that as a result of each characters experience in the previous season that each character now has grown a little darker. But that edge is suppressed a little as the first half of the season presents stories more akin in feeling to the tales if the past year. While little is moved forwards in terms of a story arc, a lot of these episodes are pure gold. Episodes with Spike are just great, The Halloween episode is phenomenal and an episode with John Ritter as a guest star had me giggling with pure glee. And then the second half of the season starts and everything gets ripped to shreds and then goes to hell very quickly. While earlier Buffy and Angel had time to establish a romance, after a night of passion some seriously dire consequences begin to affect all the characters. I think this is the first truly dramatic arc that really lets the audience know that bad things are going to happen to these characters and it's going to take more then one episode for them to get over it. The second season takes the groundwork laid down by the first and adds to it with the introduction a few more of the greatest characters and plottwists that will effect the entire series. It also continues the tradition by presenting some imaginative monsters and great witty dialog. But it's the heart breaking love story between Buffy and Angel that propels Buffy from a simple teen drama to one of my very favorite shows.

Review: Buffy season two is the first complete season of the show (Season One having started half way through the television season). It is a great one. Some of the most memorable episodes are in this season, including "Halloween", "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered", "Becoming", and "Innocence". The season is filled with ups and downs, with Buffy and the Scoobies duking it out with evil demons and eventually one of their closest friends. This season also introduces several of the greatest characters the show has ever seen. The first is Spike, who in my opinion, is the greatest character Joss Whedon has ever created. The second is Drusilla, Spikes psychic, psycho, vampire girlfriend. The third is Oz, played by a very funny Seth Green. The show adds Angel as a full time cast member without dropping any of the main characters from season one. This season easily sets the bar high for following seasons. The stories are incredible with every emotion known to man impacting the viewer at least once throughout. After watching this season, the viewer is well aware how brilliant of a television show this is. You find yourself really relating to several of the characters in this season. But, be warned, if season one didn't get you addicted, this season is all but guaranteed to take you over the edge.

Review: this dvd set is awesome. You can ask anyone I live with I might be obessed with the show but season two is deffinitly. It makes you understand buffy and angel's relationship more. Anyone who doesn't fall in love with this show and the characters. Deffinitly doesn't know what they are missing. Great action, drama, friendship, and love. I hope everyone will agree that is a BUFFY THE VAPIRE SLAYER fan cain't live without this show. I know I cain't.

Summary: This is the season all other seasons are judged by
Review: The second season of BTVS was energized with a mission. Having totally distanced itself from a campy low-budget 1992 movie, there was no doubt this version of Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) was authentic. More sure of itself, the series took some interesting storyline risks which definently paid off in the immediate and long-run. Season two is the series which many long-time fans (such as myself) remember with incredible fondness because of the wide range of roller-coaster emotions invoked without gratuitous soap.The budding relationship between the slayer and ensouled vampire Angel (David Boreanaz) was a major theme this season. Attempting to be like the girls Angel knew during his own 18th century Ireland youth, Buffy purchases a costume from a new magic shop. Unbeknownst to her, this costume is haunted, and she is forced to actually act like a noble woman (issusing pronouncements against women's litteracy and independent thinking). Ironically one benefit of his transformation allowed Angel to see the progression of women's rights, and consequently meet women that he genuinely found interesting. And then of course, we have the pivotal two-parter where Angel looses his soul after a night of spontaneous passion with Buffy. The famed gypsy curse has a very important clause which prohibits his sexual activity; one moment of true happiness unleashes the monster known as Angelus. After seeing David as the strait-laced Angel, his playful side in Angelus was both disturbing and interesting. Buffy previously slayed many vampires, but she never actually felt for one---instead viewing the task as mundane and robotic. In addition to the episodes, this DVD has so many extra features for the devoted BTVS fan. The behind the scenes extras convey how much time and dedication really go into these episodes.

Review: BuFFy is back here for a second and even better and more fun then the first season *if that is possible*..The ScOObieS lampoon more of the scary movie clitches'..Highlight episodes in my opinion are "SchOOl Hard" in which we are introduced to evil vampires villians Spike & Druscilla..Dru is played by Juliet Landau daughter of actor Martin Landau a actor who won an Oscar for portraying Bela Logosi and now is Daughter is known for playing Druscilla a vampire princess of the Night..She is truly the Beauty IN Darkness..And that voice she does just adds to the pleasure..And Spike so much can be said bout Spike..Spike is by far in my opinion the greatest most fun villian ever on tv..How come VillianS always get the best one liners?? Spike is freaking HILARIOUS..And he is without a doubt a scene stealer..And the chemistry between Spike and Druscilla is Pure or should i say Evil Magic through and through..SPIKE RULES..The people behind this show say they modeled them both after "Sid and Nancy"..I can see that but even more Spike resembles that of Billy "Rebel YeLL" Idol..Another standout episode is "Halloween" in the words of Spike that episode "Isn't this just....Neat????"..Definatly one going for the full comedy..My question why would WiLLow want to cover herself up like that..I don't want to say what i mean coz it will ruin it lets just say that this is the first time that WiLLow makes herself look that way..WiLLow is sexy anyway wait til you see her here..Another standout episode is ".....Bewitched....." *can't remember the full title of episode and the box set is currently being borrowed by a friend*..In it Xander gets too much attension from the opposite sex..Another question how can he turn down WiLLow and BuFFy?? But hey i guess anything is possible on tv right..Between the "Halloween" and ".....Bewitched....." episodes you may have a hard time getting your breath from laughing so hard..This season 2 you will also have loads of sight gags i won't ruin it by listing them..But all i say is watch carefully..One i would have done better..There is one part where WiLLow has a ScOOby Doo shirt on..I would have put them in ScOOby shirts that are most like them..Like Willow = Velma / BuFFy = Daphne / Angel = Fred / Xander = Shaggy..This is also the season where Angel goes evil villian..And when he does you can see how much funnier villians are..When he is good Angel he is more serious..But when he gets to be evil Angel he all of suddon becomes more like Spike..And Angel is letting the one liners fly..And Angel then gets funny and a great addition to Spike and Dru..In a interview the actor who plays "Spike" said "Spike isn't really a bad guy all he needs is some Mother's love and some chocolate milk"..I think that sums up the silly corniness of this show and that is just way we love it..This Season 3 of BuFFy just keeps getting better with every episode *though i do feel that "Bad Eggs" was somewhat a weak effort but that is just my opinion*..BuFFy the Vampire Slayer is the ONLY modern day show that can be called an Instant Classic and can stand up along side shows that we grew up on..Nothing is as fun as BuFFy..It is very addicting..Brilliant show that never loses it's bites or blOOdy kiSSeS...Long Live BuFFy & The ScOObieS and of course Angel Dru and Spike too......
