Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Season 4

Pros: The episode Hush

Cons: Goodbye, Oz...

The Bottom Line: The Bottom Line is a werewolf and has to lock himself up three nights a month.

Review: At the end of S eason 3, the graduating class has just defeated the Mayor’s Ascension and blown up the High School in the process… so that makes it convenient that the Sunnydale crew we’re most interested ...

Pros: James Marsters is a permanent fixture.

Cons: Sad to see Seth Green go.

The Bottom Line: The show just keeps improving with age and it's a pure treat that Spike is on all the time.

Review: It's the first year of college and Buffy is having trouble adjusting. Willow is in her element and it doesn't hurt that Oz is by her side. Buffy faces off with a vamp named Sunday with minions on campus. It was a shame that she was only on for one ...

Pros: Rich character development for some characters...

Cons: Some characters have little to do--or leave entirely

The Bottom Line: Buffy and her Scoobies blow me away. Almost.

Review: 800 Reviews. I can't believe it. And yet...it doesn't surprise me. Seven months ago I first visited Sunnydale, and met Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I'd been encouraged to check out the adventures of Buffy for years and years by friends and neighbors, ...

Pros: lots... this is Buffy after all

Cons: I miss Oz

The Bottom Line: While season four has its moments, it's not the best Buffy has to offer. If you're new to the show, you might not want to start here.

Review: Recap Season Three of Buffy the Vampire Slayer ended with our title character (Sarah Michelle Gellar) and her friends defeating the demon Mayor (by utterly destroying their high school -- fortunately, this was after they'd already ...

Pros: Cool archvillain, Spike gets some real character development.

Cons: The whole military angle gets unsettling, Riley takes some getting used to.

The Bottom Line: Season Four, middle of the road as Buffy has ever been.

Review: Season Four marks a huge turn in the life of Buffy and her friends. In many ways aside from the mathematical, it is like a "midpoint" of the series -- the first three seasons take us through high school, the last three are more or less Buffy's ...

Pros: Generally quality story arc, some brilliant episodes

Cons: A few filler episodes, slightly expensive

The Bottom Line: The Bottom Line thinks this series has a stupid name, but loves the show anyway.

Review: This is my entry to the Pride write-off, hosted by Psychovant, ed_grover, and SurgRn911. Basical ...

Pros: "Hush" and "Restless" are TV classics. Many other excellent episodes.

Cons: The main story arc is weakly handled. A few out-and-out duds.

The Bottom Line: Buy it, love it. The last top-notch "Buffy" year.

Review: Please Note: Despite being tagged for spoilers, this review makes reference to significant plot developments from Buffy The Vampire Slayer – Season Three. Introduction The transition to college life and more adult-focused ...

Pros: Home of one of the best episodes, Hush

Cons: Oz...gone (sniffle, sniffle)

The Bottom Line: A stand alone season, and it fits into the mold. How could you pass up a chance to see the Slayer in action?? I know I didn't. ;)

Review: "Into every generation a Slayer is born..." Nowhere in the books does it say the Slayer goes to college. But, as any avid fan (or superfan) would know, Buffy defies all that is set in front of her, and this season, the Scoobies go to College. ...

Pros: Despite a few weak stories, season four is a good transition to adulthood for Buffy

Cons: There are some weak stories, and the Big Bad isn't really all that bad

The Bottom Line: Even though there are some weak spots, season four is still a winner. "Hush" alone makes this set worth having.

Review: I should, technically, be doing a review of Buffy Season 3 first, but it's on loan to someone else right now so I couldn't watch it and have all the details fresh in my mind. However, season 4 is sitting here, looking all inviting so I started watching t ...

Pros: “Hush” & “Beer Bad”

Cons: as a whole, a bit awkward

The Bottom Line: Important for someone watching the entire series but probably my least favorite of all 7 seasons. Worth it for "Hush."

Review: While Joss Whedon receives full marks for not keeping his characters in high school for eight years, their transition into adulthood is awkward – although that might have been the point. Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar) and friends graduated ...
