Buffy The Vampire Slayer

Fans had better get ready to enjoy the most ’kick-ass’ Buffy episodes EVER! For the first time the UK, a Buffy DVD has been created by the public from an online survey. The unique special edition DVD will be released on 1st March 2004 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment.

Over 1.2 million fans visited an online survey where they were asked to vote for their favourite Buffy The Vampire Slayer episode. To celebrate the end of the hit television series, the four most popular will appear together on The Best Of Buffy DVD.

The survey, set up by Greenroom Digital, was live on both Freeserve and the Fox TV DVD website (www.foxtvdvd.co.uk), throughout September and October 2003.

Over 100 Buffy episodes received votes, but top of the bill came Hush, The Gift, Becoming Part I and Graduation Day Part II. In addition to the four episodes the DVD boasts some extra special value-added material, including a preview freaturette from the forthcoming Buffy Season 7 DVD collection.

The Best of Buffy votes spanned over all seven seasons. Sarah Michelle Gellar stars as Buffy Summers with both old and new characters including Angel (David Boreanaz), Oz (Seth Green), Willow (Alyson Hannigan) and Faith (Eliza Dishku). The story lines include flashbacks to Angelus siring Drusilla, Kendra’s nail biting death, Buffy and Riley’s kiss, and the fateful episode when Buffy dies!

The DVD is a tribute to Joss Whedon and the show’s loyal supporters. The Best of Buffy is the only DVD of its kind and is an essential addition to any DVD collection.

These four separate DVDs are each dedicated to one member of the Slayer cast and contain four of their very best episodes. Get ready for your favourite moments and heart-rendering scenes between the Buffy girls and boys in the Angel and Spike collections.

Willow’s episodes take us way back to the beginning when a young, geeky Willow was in love with the rather strange Oz! Later episodes reveal the quirky witch’s other side and her relationship with the beautiful Tara. Then there’s the slayer in the black rubber suit and high heels... Faith, wreaking her own havoc in four episodes in this fangtastic collection on DVD!

Take your favourite Buffy character home from The Slayer Collection, a must-buy for any Buffy fan! The four DVDs not only allow fans to relive their favourite moments with the Scooby gang, but the focus on each character highlights their individual stories and each player’s place in the overall Joss Whedon ’Buffy mythology’.
