Rating: Summary: A Awesome Start to an Awesome Series! Review: Buffy the Vampire Slayer:Season One is only 12 episodes, but just those 12 episodes blow you away! Joss Whedon has created an awesome series in Buffy, and this is one of the best of the seasons! This season includes knockout episodes like "Welcome to the Hellmouth", "The Witch" and "Angel". Buffy:Season One is a MUST for all true Buffy fans!
Rating: Summary: Far too corny for me to ignore Review: I find this show to be fairly good in total, but I find the first season to be absolutely awful. I only find a couple of the episodes to be not so bad, but the rest are simply horrendous. Not only do they have poor stories and directing, but they also can't even make a descent fight scene. Season 1 has almost nothing going for it. I just find it miraculous that after this the program was given a second season, which is a good thing since they managed to pull it together.
Rating: Summary: The best beginning for the best series Review: Buffy is surely one of the best series ever.The first season of this series is amazing.There are many fantastic episodes in it such as:Welcome to the hellmouth,The harvest,Angel,The puppet show,Nightmares and of course Prophecy girl a fantastic finale. Don't miss this incredible box set with many extras like interview with makers,photo gallery,audio commentary and other cool stuff.If you are a Buffy fan you must have it in your collection.It is great.
Rating: Summary: Buffy at The Beginning Review: My husband and I finally got cable and starting watching Buffy just during the last two seasons. We couldn't help but to love this show that we didn't understand at first. We decided that we wanted to start watching the show from the beginning, so we purchased this DVD set. It's amazing the number of things that we learned from watching the first season. The writing has been good since the beginning and I just love some of the things that Xander and Willow say. Basically, I recommend this DVD set to fans or those who want to see how it all began. Many of you who aren't into vampire movies will still love this show.
Rating: Summary: Welcome to the Hellmouth Review: For years, I was very very stupid about this series. I was certain that the movie was far superior (told you I was stupid), and that changing anything about it for the series was a mistake. Not only was I stupid, but I was wrong.My experience with Buffy came in small doses, which got bigger and bigger eventually. It wasn't until the full series was put into syndication that I got to watch it to my heart's content. There is no doubt that this show ranks as one of the best ever aired on any station. Welcome to Sunnydale. Population: Dwindling. Buffy Summers comes to this sunny little California town fresh from some bad raps in LA. Branded by mother and school faculty as a trouble-maker, along with having to make new friends and all, you'd think her troubles would be big enough. But no, she has to be the chosen one as well. Poor gal. The first season was only twelve episodes long, but they were all worth the watch. They managed to introduce and develop the cast of characters, from Buffy's friends Xander and Willow; to their resident bully; Cordelia; the vampire with a soul, Angel; to his exhaultant fogeyness, Ruper Giles, Buffy's Watcher. All the characters add something to the story (yes, even Cordelia, but not a whole lot), and they provide equal doses of laughs and drama. That's really what the show boils down to. It's a story of supernatural struggles wrapped in a comedy package with a healthy dose of good teen drama. None of it feels contrived or boring, and the cast and crew all obviously have a good time with it. From the first scene of the pilot to the final battle with The Master, you'll be wanting to see more Buffy, more fighting, and even more Buffy (meow!) The DVD features some respectable extras, and solid audio and video, especially for a TV series. Even though there are only a dozen episodes on the disk, this is a no-brainer purchase for fans of the show, fans of teen drama (yes, Dawson's Creek is dead; get over it), fans of all things supernatural, or just people who like to laugh. Welcome to the Hellmouth. Don't expect to leave.
Rating: Summary: Good show - horrible picture quality Review: The first season of any show is a little different. The actors are still 'finding' their characters, and relationships are not yet developed. So watching the first few episodes is a little awkward, but the show grows on you. It is good. My main complaint is the quality. The DVD transfer was done horribly, or maybe they just used VHS tapes to make the DVD or something. It's very grainy, the worst in dark scenes. Hopefully the later seasons will be done better.
Rating: Summary: The start of a legacy... Review: As you've probably figured out, this is hte first season of Buffy the Vampire slayer, which was spawned as a result of the cult hit movie of the same title. The show was originally not projected to do well, after all it was released mid-season and was only given a few episodes to shine. And shine it did! The first season of Buffy introduces you to the main characters as Buffy moves to Sunnydale in grade 10. Buffy is initially portrayed as a former Miss Popular bimbo cheerleader, but soon warms up to Xander, Willow, and her watcher Giles after being rejected by queen of mean Cordelia. The show already starts the threads of storylines that will be shown throughout, including the Buffy and Angel love story, Willow and Xander 'more then friends' storyline, and others. Stand out episodes in this 12-ep season include "Angel" where Buffy and Angel first kiss and Buffy discovers his true identity, "Nightmares" where the groups nighttime horrors come true, and "Prophecy Girl" the climactic first-season ender. While the season is relatively unstructured in comparison to other seasons, where there is one "Big bad" that is dealt with more or less in every episode, this season does have some good moments and shows that it has potential to be a strong show in the future. A good season to watch just to get introduced to the funny humor and roots of the show.
Rating: Summary: Great Introduction Review: I thought that the first season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer was very good. The way it introduced all the characters was wonderful and I believe that Joss Whedon is truly brilliant in that area. Buffy is such a great show, and the characters really develop even through this small season. My only complaint is that it was quite short, but still quite comendable too. Thank you for reading! ~Lexie Burnett
Rating: Summary: Man I love this show Review: I would give this show 100 stars if I could, and the DVD is superb especially with all the extras. A must have for any Buffy fan.
Rating: Summary: beginning of the best show ever Review: great beginning in which we see Buffy(Sarah Michelle Gellar) meet Xander(Nicholas Brendon), Giles(Anthony Stewart Head), Angel(David Boreanaz), Cordy(Charisma CArpenter) and Willow(Alyson Hannigan). filled with dramatic and funny stuff, its a keeper. note that Jesse in the first 2 episodes played by ERic Balfour, well what I found out that he was supposed to be a regular and killed off to do a surpirse but it stayed that way, but some of you people out there might of knew that and Darla(Julie Benz) killed off in the ep Angel was revived in the tv show Angel. this is the first death of Buffy and she later dies in season 5, but some of you knew that too. in the beginning of season 2 David Borenaz becomes a cast member and of course you all knew that too and i'll shut up now
