At the heart of the first years of Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer was the romance between Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar), slayer of all things evil, and hunky Angel (David Boreanaz), the tortured vampire destined to walk the earth with a soul. The second season of Buffy took the Buffy-Angel pas de deux from ecstasy to agony in a now-classic plot arc that catapulted the show from WB teen drama to true TV greatness. You see, if the cursed Angel ever experiences true happiness for a moment, he'll revert to being an evil vampire again. And guess what happens after Buffy and Angel finally declare their love for one another and consummate their relationship...

Buffy found its true momentum during the second season, as geeky Xander (Nicholas Brendon) fell in love with popular girl Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), Willow (Alyson Hannigan) gave up her crush on Xander in favor of werewolf boy Oz (Seth Green), and watcher Giles (Anthony Stewart Head) began a sweetly tentative relationship with computer teacher (and witch) Jenny Calendar (Robia LaMorte). Mayhem came to Sunnydale, though, in the form of evil vampires Drusilla (Juliet Landau) and Spike (drolly wicked James Marsters), who were more than ready to aid and abet Angel as he turned bad. It all sounds like horror-action mayhem (and there are great fight scenes), but Buffy took on its plotlines with amazing depth, intelligence, and humor. And oh, man, the love story! Buffy and Angel's tragic relationship is one of the most heartbreaking you'll ever find. Buffy's final dilemma finds her having to save the world at Angel's expense, and Gellar (who deserves a passel of Emmys for her work) is phenomenal at telegraphing Buffy's swirling conflicts between love and duty. This is some of the best TV ever made, period. --Mark Englehart

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Season 2
Box set came in excellent quality...and the show itself is of course hilarious, entertaining, and very well written. Great purchase and a great price. :)



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 2
Thank you - the season may always be watched, and thought about, again and again!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Season 2
About the series? STILL a cut above "Twilight" or "The Vampire Diaries" IMLTHO! Horror & humor can go hand-in-hand without lessening either... in Joss Whedon's capable hands. On this DVD set and the seller? Season 2 was shipped immediately, was well protected with extra bubblewrap in the media mailing padded envelope, and is a treasured addition to our entertainment collection. Kudos!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - one of the best seasons
Season 2 is one of the best seasons of the younger years of buffy period. it's the season everybody thinks about when they think about
some of the best episodes. most of them occurred in season 2. whether you loved or hated angelus or loved or hated buffy and angel, the coupling. the episodes were all so memorable. it's among the seasons i've overplayed for pure enjoyment.

Pros:

*Xander and Cordelia's escapades fit season 2 perfectly.
*Season 2 made me honestly ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not 100%
There was some kind of, what I assume to be, melted hard candy re-hardened spewed all over some of the discs.
