Best of Buffy DVD Collection is coming out this fall. It is two disks and includes these episodes:
1. The Pack
2. Halloween
3. Passion
4. The Wish
5. Helpless
6. Fear Itself
7. Hush
8. Same Time Same Place
Not a bad collection -- although I don't know that I'd have had "Helpless", "Fear Itself" or "Same Time Same Place". I know I'd have OMWF, Pangs, FFL, possibly more Faith episodes. . .
Apparently, it's the same collection that was sold as a Best Buy Exclusive last year.
The first disc sounds good (assuming they break in that order) but of the second, Hush is the only one I'd want particularly to own.
At least half of that collection is so arc dependent for various seasons, I can't see it being a good intro. Aside from that, who's best are we talking about (who selected or was there a theme or ?)?
I also wonder what the criteria were for selection. I mean, STSP the only ep out of the last 3 seasons?
I have no idea who made that selection - I agree that the first disk is good and what I'd choose, but the second is weak.
"Best Episodes of Buffy That Haven't Already Been Included On One Of Our Other Themed DVD Collections" is a lot to fit on a DVD cover.

Wow! She beat out everyone but Cousin Oliver and Scrappy Doo on a list that includes Barney, Wesley Crusher, and Urkel—that's some power hating going on.
Elmo deserves to be on that list. On the other hand, knowing that Scrappy is the villian of the live-action movie makes me kind of want to see that.
Elmo deserves to be on that list.
Bears repeating.
Also, I think Livia Soprano is a dead tip-off that someone's working their personal issues into that list.
