Customer reviews:  A walk down memory lane, 2006-03-01
This is a great Buffy dvd for those of us who loved the series but couldn't quite bring ourselves to pay for all those series. Its really good value and all the episodes are quality entertainment not a bad one among them. Everyone is going to have different opinions about whether they were the right selection so here's mine...
My only complaint was that there was a heavy emphasis on earlier episodes. Two episodes about Oz and Willow but nothing from the series where Tara dies and Willow becomes the big bad. In Spike a couple of fairly random (though quality) episodes about him wanting to kill Buffy but it only touches on Spike's feelings for Buffy and completely misses the whole, soul return, saving the world arc that Spike goes through - a pretty major character development! Maybe I'm being fussy but it seems strange that a couple of such major story lines for the characters would be completley ignored and that both of these stories involve the later series. Well worth the money though  A Brief History of 3 Key Buffy Characters!, 2004-09-16
This is a fantastic little set, which contains some of my favourite Buffy episodes ("I Only Have Eyes For You", "Doppelgangland", "Wild At Heart"). If you can't afford the series boxsets, then this is an excellent way to bide your time whilst saving... 3 discs - each dedicated to a key Buffy character and containing 4 key episodes for each, which span across the seasons.
The boxset packaging is rather simple and unimaginative (no fancy foldout designs nor informative episode guide as with the standard series sets) but for the price and considering the great array of episodes you get, it is easy to let it slide. The Special Features section seemingly doesn't have much to offer (only a Character Profile and a DVD Trailer) but the Character Profile features a range of clips from all seasons and interviews with the actors and writers, which is much better than the screen bio that I was expecting! All in all, thoroughly recommended - enjoy a selection of Willow, Spike and Angel's finest Buffy moments at a fraction of the usual boxset cost! Customers who bought this item also bought:
