Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Season 1 (DVD) ... Sarah Michelle Gellar, Nicholas Brendon ... / DVD released 03 October, 2005 at 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment / Features of the DVD: PAL / Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar) looks like your typical perky high-schooler, and like most, she has her secret fears and anxieties. However, while most teens are worrying about their next date, their next zit, or their next term paper, Buffy's angsting over the next vampire she has to slay. See, Buffy, a young woman with superhuman strength, is the "chosen one," and she must help rid the world of evil, namely by staking demons. The exceptional first season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer introduces us to the treacherous world of Sunnydale High School (where Buffy moved after torching her previous high school's gym). The characters there include "watcher" Giles (Anthony Stewart Head) and the original "Scooby Gang" members--friendly geek Xander (Nicholas Brendon), computer whiz Willow (Alyson Hannigan), and snobbish popular girl Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter)--who aid Buffy in her quest. Those used to the darker tone that Buffy took in its later seasons will be surprised by the lighter feeling these first 12 episodes have--it's kind of like Buffy 90210 as the cast grapples with regular teen problems in addition to saving the world from demonic darkness. Fans of the show will enjoy the crisp writing, the phenomenal chemistry of the cast (already well-established within the first few episodes), and the introduction to characters that would stay for many seasons, including moody vampire Angel (David Boreanaz). Through it all, Gellar carries the series with amazing confidence, whether conveying the despair of high school or dispatching various demons--she's one of TV's most distinctive and strongest heroines. --Mark Englehart

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is hands down one of my favourite TV shows of all time. Season One is a perfect introduction to the series as it introduces the main characters and themes of the show. First up is the struggling high school girl Buffy (played by the excellent Sarah Michelle Gellar), who has been sent to Sunnydale after being expelled from her previous school regading an "incident" where the gym got burnt down. Buffy is, of course, the chosen one, fighting vampires and saving mankind but she really just wants to lead an ordinary high school life and spend time with her friends, ther nerdy IT geek Willow (Allyson Hannigan, perhaps the standout actress ...  Read the complete review

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is a spin off from the movie itself. The movie in my opinion was pretty poor but the series itself was brilliant and well written. I watched all seven series' of the show and have the full set on DVD which is a brilliant box set packed with hours worth of episodes. Buffy the series was created by Joss Whedon and follows Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar) who is the latest in a long history of young women chosen to battle the forces of evil including vampires, demons and other forces of darkness. All slayers are guided by a watcher, and Rupert Giles (Anthony Head) is giving the task of watching over her and preparing her ...  Read the complete review

I'm a fairly recent convert to the world of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I never watched it when it originally aired, and despite much insistence from two friends in the past year, I always refused on the grounds that I thought it wouldn't appeal. However, I recently found myself with a £12 voucher for an online store, and so decided to give this TV show a chance. I bought season one, not expecting to like it. Fast forward a year and a bit, and I'm now the proud owner of all seven seasons of Buffy, the five seasons of the spin-off Angel, a Spike action figure, and three trade paperbacks of the Buffy season 8 comics. My bank account has taken a dent, let me tell ...  Read the complete review

Buffy the Vampire Slayer has been a firm favourite with me since it first hit our TV screens back in 1997 when it was only known from the movie of the same name. So they decided to make a TV series and what a TV series it was. I was hooked but this first season should be where you start your Buffy journey and here is why i think it is definitely worth you having a look if you enjoy lots of fun sliced with some real danger. A little bit about the show. It is about a girl who moves to a place called Sunnydale and is surprised to see there are vampires there. You see she is the slayer who is destined to kill the creatures of the night so she teams up with her ...  Read the complete review

Buffy The Vampire Slayer. My favourite show of all time. The purpose of this interview is to provide an indepth review of the first season on DVD with an overview of the show and the actors as well as a bit of information about every episode. I'm only doing this for this season as there are 12 episodes so it won't be too long winded. - Overview - Created by Joss Whedon after he felt the original film version had been made a mockery of. Buffy began airing on American tv in spring 1997 and went on to spawn 7 seasons and win a massive cult following. The show stars the amazinginly talented Sarah Michelle Gellar in the title role as Buffy Anne ...  Read the complete review
