6 - watch firefly!
agree with all, but most especially this one. although i haven't watched season 7 a second time, so i'll have to wait and see on that

Ahh, I miss Buffy!
I never really managed to get into Angel... I just don't like the character (please don't hurt me!).
I think I've seen every episode of Buffy except a few from the college seasons, with Riley in them... I didn't like him much either, those episodes just didn't draw me in.

Season 7 was quite possibly my favourite season.
I've been tossing up as to whether it would be stupid of me to buy it on DVD without first owning the other seasons.

fuck off angel was better than buffy! buffy was the original and the best. angel was a second rate (still good but compared to buffy..) that was never as successful!

actually, i think you can't say that either is 'better', per se. they had different aims and different approaches and just different energies overall. on the whole i think i have to say i actually prefer angel, but in my eyes that doesn't make it 'better' - it's just different.

angel, for the record, was about much more than the character of angel. in fact, i think, similar to buffy, he was probably one of the more boring characters on the show. it was the ensemble work that made angel great, same as buffy.

uhh, again i have to disagree. sorry. buffy/angel/firefly rate as my top 3 television shows ever, but don't you think it's possible that they're about more than sheer entertainment value?

all you buffy/angel fans should watch firefly, it's the bomb. managed to be as good as, if not better, than the buffyverse in 17 episodes
just because i can't let this slide, there were 14 episodes of firefly, or 15 if you count the 2 parter serenity as separate eps

Just thought I'd share this because I was so excited to get all the seasons so cheap!

I just bought Buffy seasons 1-6 on DVD for for $22 per 3 discs, which equals about $44 per season (and only $22 for season 1!). I would have got season 7 too, but it was sold out. Both K-Mart and Target should have them.

Buffy should have finished when it did. I like to think of it fondly during the first 3 seasons, and a little bit in the 5th season. it should have ended after the gift.
When you look at the overall last 2 seasons of buffy are they really worth it. when theyre on fox8 i change the channel.

Angel on the other hand should still be on. The shit it was cancelled for isnt even getting half the ratings angel did. suck shit WB you bastards.
