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

 Best TV Show Ever!!! April 15, 2009

Even after years of this show ending, it still holds up, and this show has Great Writers, Wonderful Seasons of Episodes and it is so much fun to watch it all again with someone who hasn't seen it yet. Buffy and the gang is great to watch and I love how the story unfolds from one episodes to another, as if we are growing with the characters. As oppose some tv shows to where the story begins and ends in an episode and then it starts over next episodes, it doesn't evolve like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and that is the big part of the reason it works so great, plus the Writers who has done the wonderful job of dialogues and adventure and humor. Everyone should see this show!
 Buffy The Beginning April 8, 2009

Pleasantly surprised by the first season after seeing the movie I didn't think the show would be too deep. And if this show was given to anyone other than Joss Whedon I'm sure it would have been a complete train wreck.
Buffy moves to Sunnydale with her mom Joyce after being kicked out of school in Los Angeles. She immediately meets her new watcher, Rupert Giles and Angel, hunky vampire with a soul. With their help she starts battling demons and vamps in Sunnydale. And you thought Suburbia was safe!
The villain of the first season is The Master, one of the oldest living vampires in the world. The stories are well structured with sharp, funny dialogue and each character really stands out on their own. It's fun to see a female action star especially one that has time to be a cheerleader too. A must see for vamp lovers everywhere.
Does Not Seem Right??? March 31, 2009

Did Amazon make a mistake with the price of 31.00 on this? It is the shortest of all the seasons and the others are going for 19.00.
