Love This series. I have seen it more than a dozen times. Not a silly teenage show as the title and previous movie led one to believe. It's an awesome series. So much growth, character development, action, vampires, demons, you name it, it has it, plus serious subject matter yet such great dialogue to make you laugh often. This is my replacement dvds so I can pass on my well used set to my adult daughter and I've been very pleased with the presentation and quality.

The design of the box and case is excellent in both appearance and function, visually unique and organized efficiently. The show itself is great as well. A classic to be sure.

In the past, I've attempted to write rather whimsical, yet informative reviews about dvd tv sets. With this all-encompassing set, however, I simply cannot be either whimsical or light-hearted. For Buffy, you see, is simply my favorite television show of all time, and lemme tell ya, I've seen a lotta tv shows. Now, this is not ment to be another of those, "...in my day" type of pieces. Hardly. Simply stated, while Buffy nay not be the GREATEST program of all time -- I would place it amongst the top twenty, certainly -- after nearly fifty years of viewing pleasure, it does rank as the show which continues to delight me after many, many viewings. And, since Buffy deals with timeless themes in so very an intelligent way, I dare say the Buffster will continue to enthrall others for generations to come, not unlke "I Love Lucy," or "The Honeymooners." Yes, those are comedies and comedy does tend to age well, but Buffy's skillful blend of drama, comedic overtones, pathoes, teen-angst, horror and suspense make it unique, to be placed into a category of one, like that other '90s stalwart, "The X-Files." To be honest, I was late in coming to the Buffyverse. I didn't begin to watch it until the start of the sixth season. It didn't take long, though, for me to become captivated. My bad. I quickly made up for lost time. Purchasing the sets -- all of which are included here -- from season one on, I simply fell in love. The writing, which for me is the most impotant part of any show, is exquisite. Creator Joss Wheadon and the crew have woven a tale about a stuck-up, spoiled, self-absorbed valley-type-girl who, against her desire, is chosen to fulfill a higher calling, that of a vampire-slayer. The one girl on all world. Needless to say Buffy is not impressed. But, over time, she passes through stages of begrudging acceptance to tolleration, all the way to self-identification as THE vampire slayer, the chosen one -- and what a one she becomes. Buffy does receive help along the way, from a loyal and devoted group of friends, associates, and just plain hangers-on. Plus, she develops a wonderful pure love with a father-replacement figure, that being Giles, a British expatriate, a former bad-boy, who battles his own personal demons all the while serving as a stern, devoted, yet caring father-figure for a whole host youngsters, those not so young and the down-right ancient. The best part of the Giles character, to me, is that he is far from the strict, know-it-all father know's best types. As he teaches Buffy and the others about the arcane and occult, about what it is be adults and have responsibilites to others -- sometimes, even the world -- Bufffy, Willow, Zander et al, teach him about the joys of living, about not taking yourself so seriously that you exclude any and all else. In other words, while Giles teaches his charges about life, they teach him HOW to live. What I found eternally fascinating about Buffy is how the charactors slowly evolve, change, mature. They grow, not just up, but they mature as people, right before your eyes. They experience joy, pain and anguish, they make horrid mistakes. All this against a back-drop of mayhem and apocalypse. I constantly found myself empathising with these people, sharing in their triumphs, their tragedies, all the while aware these are but tv charactors, but like any great literary creation, allowing myself to become part of them, and they a part of me. Live forever much, Buffy.Vollständige Rezension lesen
I got this for my mom for mother's day- I am so happy, she loves this show. all of the disks are included and there doesnt seem to be any major scratches or anything to the disks that will affect how they play. Only thing is theres some damage to the box, but thats okay because as long as she can watch it then we are good :))

Hopefully, in the next few years we'll get a blu-ray Buffy set but, until then, this is the set to to get! Lots of extra features, good looking and shelf friendly packaging, and a better price than the more recent DVD sets that have come out. Get this one!
