DVD Reviews of Buffy the Vampire Slayer - The Complete Third Season (Slim Set)
DVD Review: Keeps getting better
Summary: 5 Stars
The third season of Buffy was the best yet. The season-long story arc concerning the Mayor of Sunnydale's preparation for his ascension to full demon-hood was full of twists and turns and benefitted enormously from Harry Groener's exquisite performance, which combined the pseudo-innocence of a 50s sitcom character with the ruthless ambition of a modern Faust. The rocky relationship of Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) and Angel (David Boreanaz) was developed further and brought to a touching conclusion. New characters that would figure importantly in the future were introduced: rival slayer Faith (Eliza Dushku), erstwhile Watcher Wesley (Alexis Denisof), and vengeance demon Anya (Emma Caulfield). The regulars of the Scooby Gang--Willow (Allison Hannigan), Xander (Nicholas Brendan), Oz (Scott Green), and the Watcher Giles (Anthony Stewart Head)--took turns in the spotlight as their characters underwent important changes as well. With so much going on and all of it so well conceived, there is scarcely a dull moment in this exceptionally strong season.
Standout episodes include "The Zeppo" (Xander, suffering an inferiority complex, has his own stand-alone adventure while the writers have fun lampooning a typical Buffy-saves-the-world scenario), "The Prom" (despite the lame hellhounds, this touching episode handles teen love and angst better than John Hughes ever did), and "Graduation Day, Parts 1 & 2" (a suitably cataclysmic and emotional end for a great season).
DVD Review: Buffy 3rd Season
Summary: 3 Stars
This DVD set was okay. It was a little more beat up than I would have prefered, but everything was intacted. There were some scratches, but all the DVD's were otherwise in good condition.
Thanks,
Carrie
DVD Review: I'm in love with Faith!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is probably one of my favorite seasons because of the addition of Faith, a good slayer gone bad. She is one of the most capable, interesting, most well developed characters in the whole Buffy series... and she's hot. Haha!! I loved the storyline about the mayor trying to become a powerful force to take over Sunnydale.
My favorite episodes were "Slayerfest '98", where Cordilia (which this is her last season in Buffy) and Buffy get trapped in a deadly game for survial on prom night.
The one with the mask at the art gallery that brings people back from the dead was one of the best episodes of the series.
Also, there is the introduction of Anya, the vengence demon, who throws them into a reality world where there is no Buffy.
Amazing season!!
DVD Review: Great seller!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was pleased with this seller. I received my purchase in a timely manner. I would use this seller again.DVD Review: Wonderful! Have you checked out the comic books?
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a big Buffy and Angel fan, so 5 stars goes without saying. But have you checked out the comic books? Finally season 8 by Joss Whedon!

Media Type: DVD
The third season of Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer was marked by the arrival in Sunnydale of renegade slayer Faith (Eliza Dushku), a moody loner who seemed to like her demon-staking calling just a little too much. While Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) was always wary of Faith, the two developed a deep friendship and appreciative rapport--that is, until the evil mayor of Sunnydale (Harry Groener) tapped into Faith's dark side and lured her into his plot to take over the world, first as a double agent spying on Buffy, then as out-and-out nemesis. And as the mayor's ascension approached--which happened to fall on Sunnydale High's graduation day--Buffy and Faith's battles got nastier and nastier, as Buffy attempted to wrestle with her dark side (literally and figuratively), save the world and her friends, and keep her lover Angel (David Boreanaz) out of Faith's evil clutches.
Chock-full of exceptional episodes, this third season started out with a bang (the superb season opener "Anne," in which a runaway Buffy finally returns to her Slayer calling) and never let up. Among other highlights, the season introduced former vengeance demon and soon-to-be regular Anya (Emma Caulfield), fleshed out Angel's tortured character (and readied him for his own series), and featured a hilarious doppelganger Willow (Alyson Hannigan), a vampire from a parallel universe, who in Willow's own words was "evil and... skanky... and kinda gay!" (Total foreshadowing there, folks.) The season's pi?ce de r?sistance, though, was the two-parter "Graduation Day," wherein Faith tries to kill Angel, and the students of Sunnydale High prepare to do battle with a mutated mayor and his army of demons. Aside from the series' exceptional writing and acting, this compelling year of Buffy was anchored by the consistently excellent Gellar, as well as Dushku's complicated Faith, a girl you truly love to hate. By the time you finish these episodes, Faith will have cast a spell on you that you'll find very hard to shake. --Mark Englehart
