At the heart of the first years of Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer was the romance between Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar), slayer of all things evil, and hunky Angel (David Boreanaz), the tortured vampire destined to walk the earth with a soul. The second season of Buffy took the Buffy-Angel pas de deux from ecstasy to agony in a now-classic plot arc that catapulted the show from WB teen drama to true TV greatness. You see, if the cursed Angel ever experiences true happiness for a moment, he'll revert to being an evil vampire again. And guess what happens after Buffy and Angel finally declare their love for one another and consummate their relationship...

Buffy found its true momentum during the second season, as geeky Xander (Nicholas Brendon) fell in love with popular girl Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), Willow (Alyson Hannigan) gave up her crush on Xander in favor of werewolf boy Oz (Seth Green), and watcher Giles (Anthony Stewart Head) began a sweetly tentative relationship with computer teacher (and witch) Jenny Calendar (Robia LaMorte). Mayhem came to Sunnydale, though, in the form of evil vampires Drusilla (Juliet Landau) and Spike (drolly wicked James Marsters), who were more than ready to aid and abet Angel as he turned bad. It all sounds like horror-action mayhem (and there are great fight scenes), but Buffy took on its plotlines with amazing depth, intelligence, and humor. And oh, man, the love story! Buffy and Angel's tragic relationship is one of the most heartbreaking you'll ever find. Buffy's final dilemma finds her having to save the world at Angel's expense, and Gellar (who deserves a passel of Emmys for her work) is phenomenal at telegraphing Buffy's swirling conflicts between love and duty. This is some of the best TV ever made, period. --Mark Englehart

Customer Reviews

great show - terrible dvd
Seasons 1-3 of Buffy are undeniably the best - the comedy, the romance, the drama! Unfortunately, the DVDs are some of the worst TV to DVD I've ever seen. The quality of the video is terrible - often grainy, and in standard 4:3 aspect. The whole series should be remastered and released at least in widescreen.

Of course you don't need a super awesome tv to appreciate the show, the DVDs are definitely watchable, but disappointing.

This is a great season of Buffy. It arrived very promptly and had no flaws.

disappointed
I was very disappointed. I placed my order on 11/5 and was told delivery would be a month later. Why would it take that long if the item was in stock and nhmovies took my payment immediately. I never did receive my video. I sent emails to nhmovies to ask about the delivery status and tracking info since they showed it as shipped. They never responded. I finally requested a refung from Amazon and my account was credited within days. Amazon is great and has excellent customer service but nhmovies should not be allowed to sell because they dont take care of customers or deliver products. Once you place an order with nhmovies they take your money then diappear.
