Query: The Series is NOTHING Like the Movie!

Even if you've never seen any of the TV series, you will be a complete Buffy Freak after the first 5 or 6 episodes. Don't make the mistake of buying the first season to see if you'll like it. Then you'll be like, "Oh man, I should have just bought the 40 disc set, which I will now anyway, but then I'll have not needed to buy the first season." I don't know, heh...The writing is _SO_ well done, in sharp contrast to the movie -- I was quite shocked. Having seen the movie in the theatre those many years ago, I was not really inclined to care too much about the television series. Holy cow did I miss out on a lot of hillarious goodness.This is definitely the way to go too... no commercials!There are some real adult themes goin' on by the 3rd season, so just be aware for the kiddie's sake. That said, this truly is the best 6480 minutes of tv that you'll ever own.
