Meet Angel (David Boreanaz), the most gorgeous vamp on the
block, as the Slayer Collection brings together four
great episodes from some of your favourite Buffy Characters...
These
DVDs seem more like a rip-off than a favour to fans, as most
of the people that are likely to buy these DVDs will already
have a close to complete Buffy episode collection at
home already!
Either
way, here they are, a selection of DVDs with four episodes
that someone at Fox has classed as the best! Personally I
think they may be wrong, but this comes down to personal taste.
Angel's disc has the episodes:
Angel
Buffy and Angel share their first kiss, and she finds out
who he really is.
Innocence
Angel loses his soul and his demon self takes over; Buffy
must deal with him and stop the Judge.
I
Only Have Eyes For You
The tortured ghost of a former student haunts Sunnydale High
School, re-enacting the murder/suicide he committed.
Amends
At Christmastime, evil haunts Angel, torturing him with visions
of his murderous past and urging him to kill Buffy.
These
are good episodes in their own right, but not the best - it
seems like screen time is more of an issue when these were
picked.
Season
one will always be remembered fondly so Angel is well
placed even if it may not be the best Angel episode.
Innocence has always had a high cult status and Angelus always
kicked ass, but I Only Have Eyes For You was one of
the poorer episodes of season 2, and Amends only ever
stood out for its Christmas value thanks to Sunnydale snow.
I think many fans will agree though that there are some better
Angel episodes than these.
With
some of the average episodes the package contains you'd think
that Fox would make it up to us with some brilliant extras
but again they come up short with the goods.
All
each disc contains is a Buffy/Angel DVD trailer and
a short 10 minute, if that, 'character profile' which consists
of some cut and pasted interviews (with some parts fans might
recognise from past Buffy DVD extras plus some snippets
from the pre-contained episodes.
Worth
it? I don't think so, unfortunately the majority of fans will
get these just to complete their sets. Shame on you Fox -
the show is great but fans deserve something better than some
already released episodes and a couple of shoddy extras!
