Buffy's Darkest Season
This might be the strangest season of Buffy. The villains for most of the season are bumbling idiots (despite the fact that they're super-geniuses with demonology, magic, and robotics). This is the only season where the greatest challenges the Scooby Gang must face don't actually come from the "Big Bad." Instead, most of the serious problems that arise are a result of internal conflict. This is even true of the battle at the end of the season. Even though the crisis is set in motion by Warren of the Trio, the conflict is between members of the gang.

Without giving too much away, this season features the total loss of innocence for all of the main characters. This season is depressing, but it is probably the closest analogue of real life that the show ever has to offer. The characters in Buffy are not perfect people. They have their flaws, and they make some very bad choices (understatement!). Those that survive find ways to cope, and they carry on. I agree with some critics that it is difficult to watch our beloved Buffy characters self-destructing, but their behavior shows that they really are human. By the end of this season, all of the characters have gone through some huge changes. Season six isn't the most fun of all of the seven great years of Buffy, but it very well may end up being one of my favorites. The characters show that they really are incredible because they manage to face their own faults and demons in a way that few people can.

In the end, Buffy is an excellent show because it features clever humor, imaginative villains and dilemmas, exciting action sequences, and lots of hot chicks (Hey, you know that's part of it!). The reason Buffy is a great show is that the actors, writers, and directors really did an awesome job, and the characters are so very real.

Depressing & different, but good
Buffy Season Six is very different than what you have seen with the past five seasons. The show is much darker, more graphic, more intense. The main complaint about season six is the storyline.

Essentially, every character on the show becomes self-destructive. While this is something that does happen in life, watching these characters you know and love destroy themselves and each other is painful. All season you have to watch them go through pain and inflict pain. There is some good stuff in there, some of it is just tough to get through.

Season six is definitely my least favorite season, but if your a Buffy fan its still worth watching. But on thing is clear at this point in the show: Buffy ain't for kids anymore.

Just OUTSTANDING
I recieved this item extremely fast, and in great shape. Keep up the hard work. Those of us over here in Iraq appreciate it.
