Picking up where the relatively disappointing film left off, the show followed Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) on her quest to rid the world of vampires, demons, and various other evil beings. A small band of friends were there to help her out, which included the vampire convert Angel (David Boreanaz), vampire and ambivalent love interest Spike (James Marsters), popular girl Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), regular guy Xander (Nicholas Brendon), and intellectual Willow (Alyson Hannigan). This collection includes the entirety of the show, allowing fans to trace the evolution of Buffy's relationships, fashion sense, and success at battling her true demon: her strong desire to be normal.   Features Introduction by Joss Whedon Back to the Hellmouth: A Conversation with Creators and Cast Breaking Barriers: It's Not a Chick Fight Thing Featurette Love Bites: Relationships in the Buffyverse Evil Fiends Buffy: An Unlikely Role Model Featurette Buffy Cast and Crew: Favorite Episodes 49-DVD Set Containing All Series 1 - 7 Episodes Audio: English, French, Spanish Dolby Surround Back To The Hellmouth: A Conversation With Creators And Cast Bonus Disc: Introduction By Joss Whedon Breaking Barriers: It's Not A Chick Buffy: An Unlikely Role Model Fight Thing Interactive Menus Love Bites: Relationships In The Buffyverse Scene Selection   Technical Info Release Information Studio: Foxvideo Release Date: 9/19/2006 Original Release Date: 1997 Catalog ID: 2231292 UPC: 00024543212904 Audio & Video Original Language: English Available Audio Tracks: English Video: Color   Cast & Crew Alyson Hannigan David Boreanaz Sarah Michelle Gellar   Product Image

Not very realistic series - but my teenagers seem to like it. Came nicely packaged and was delivered to my door in a snap. Fun for the family to sit around and watch together. Definitely laughable in parts - pure fun.

I never watched Buffy - I'm sure I must have turned my nose up at it! I never was interested in Angel either. Now, years later I get hooked on Angel in re-runs on TNT (and this most definitely is NOT my genre!) Now I'm a huge fan. I bought this just to get the story pre-Angel, so I thought I'd probably just watch the first three seasons. Wrong! I got through with the first three and didn't miss a lick to keep on keepin' on! This show is great! There's nothing that this show can't do - I've never known a show like this! I've never laughed so hard, been so scared, so amused, so hurt, so sad ... In watching the commentary I found out that the creator, Joss Whedon, regularly had the cast over to do Shakespeare readings. It shows through, honest, it does. I watched the last three seasons on about three hours of sleep - and that's some 50 hours of storytime! Buy it! Watch it! You'll be glad you did!

One of the best made shows on TV. I was reluctant to give this show a chance, but my husband wanted to watch it. I am so glad that I watched it with him. The show was so fresh, funny, and amazing that it soon became my favorite show. I enjoy watching the episodes over and over, especially "Once More with Feeling" (the musical - and I hate musicals as a rule) and any episode with Spike in it.

Nice display case with color pictures on each CD of different characters from the show. You can pick your favorite scene of a given show through the menu driven process. The Buffy series has a good blend of comedy, action, and drama. I will introduce the CD set to my children at the appropriate time.

i didn't understand what the fuss was about until i watched this series in it's entirety. i bought the first season box set a while back, but didn't really give it a chance. only until i watched firefly and worked my way backwards did it make more sense to me. some of the most affecting TV ever made. the box comes with a dvd with extra stuff, and a nice booklet with an episode by episode runthrough. otherwise, it's the same stuff from the 7 boxes.

I completely recommed buying this box-set.I am really enjoying it. I have been a fan since the beginning and I still continue watching the re-runs. It's a great show. What's also great is that it doesnt take up a lot of shelf space. Definitely recommended it to anyone.
