Buffy

I’ve been watching Buffy seasons 4 to 7 over the past few weeks. I’d watched the first four seasons of Buffy when they were first shown on TV, and then bought the DVD box sets when they were released. But I’d never got around to seeing seasons five to seven until now (apart from the “Once More, With Feeling” musical episode, which I’d seen many times, bought the soundtrack, bought the sheet music, and plonkety-plinked my way through on the piano).

I really enjoyed watching these; to my taste the series got better and better through the seasons, and the dynamics of plot, emotion, and character were appealingly managed. OK, so Buffy herself was rather annoying, but everything else about the show approached perfection.

Now I have the Angel box sets to watch. I’ve seen seasons 1 to 3 and 5 before, but season 4 will be new to me.
