Nice acronym, Mom!

Buffy ,'Showtime'


Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

Amazon has "slim line" DVDs of Angel & Buffy (and many other things, too) for $20 a season

what's the difference between the regular sets and the "slim line" ones? because i was just about to use xmas money to buy the complete series box set, but i won't bother if i can get the remaining three seasons i need for $20 each.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

The discs are the same, tiggy. But rather than those big fold-out boxes, they come in the Firefly cases, I think.

Personally, I like the way the big fold-out boxes look next to each other on my shelf.

oooh! really? i hate those damn fold-out things! the centers always break and the dvds fall out and get scratched. annoys me to death.

I think i just found a use for my xmas money.

But don't the slim-lines have fewer extras?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Well, there was that woman in season 7. . . but really it was Cordy and then Anya.

I wouldn't call it dating, but there was Faith.

Everything I'm looking at on Amazon and other sites lists the same extras as the old version; I think it's just the packaging that's different.

Oh, but I should mention also that they're not available immediately -- 4 to 6 weeks to ship. But $20, so.

Ah. Awesome, then. I have the first season of Angel, but never liked the remainder of the seasons enough to pay $40-$60 a pop. I also hate the fold-out versions, so this could be pretty cool.

yeah, i'm in no big hurry. i've done without them for this long.

ETA: thanks for the heads up, Strega!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Excellent! I still haven't cleaned my soggy copies, I think this will make replacement cost-effective.

Strega -- that's great, because I STILL haven't found the last disk for Season 2 of Buffy. I may need to get another set.
