I’m still watching the Buffy Season 1 DVDs that Julie loaned me, but I see that Season 2 is now out on DVD. And, I’ve also come across this review of the Season 2 DVDs.
So far, Jason and I have only made through the first two-part episode on the Season 1 DVDs. To be honest, I wasn’t all that impressed, but I’ve heard that the episodes get better over time, so I haven’t given up on it yet. Or, as the review puts it:
Buffy, the Vampire Slayer really hit its stride in Season Two. The show went beyond just the “high school sucks and monsters are bad” motif and added deep metaphors with [spoiler], [spoiler], and the arrival of Spike and Drusilla.
