Oh, Buffy. Season one was enjoyable enough, but season two… it was just so great!!! Spike is such an awesome villain, and the two-faced Angel was incredible too. Each episode kept me on my toes and constantly wanting for more. I loved so many: Passion was my favorite, and Innocence was amazing, I also loved Phases and (in a different genre) Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered. I loved how the EPs would go to really freaky to absurdly funny. Oh and also? Reptile Boy crept me out so much, we had to stop watching it between the third and fourth acts and I couldn’t stop worrying. (I just find it way much creepier when the bad guys are actual humans, because I always feel like it could really happen.)

I really loved the new characters in this season (which isn’t always easy!), Spike as mentionned but also Oz, who might just be the coolest good guy alive. The new trio of villains brought so much more to the show than the previous stereotyped “Master”. These new vampires were hip and cool; I also loved the turnaround of Spike at the end. (Can’t wait to see more of him in later seasons.)

The bonuses were interesting, I liked all the commentaries (but reading the scripts are extremely boring to me). The featurettes at the end were nice and informative too. It was a good idea to put the various TV spots too, it makes for a quite complete set.

Season two of Buffy is, without a doubt, a masterpiece.
