At the heart of the first years of Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer was the romance between Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar), slayer of all things evil, and hunky Angel (David Boreanaz), the tortured vampire destined to walk the earth with a soul. The second season of Buffy took the Buffy-Angel pas de deux from ecstasy to agony in a now-classic plot arc that catapulted the show from WB teen drama to true TV greatness. You see, if the cursed Angel ever experiences true happiness for a moment, he'll revert to being an evil vampire again. And guess what happens after Buffy and Angel finally declare their love for one another and consummate their relationship... Buffy found its true momentum during the second season, as geeky Xander (Nicholas Brendon) fell in love with popular girl Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), Willow (Alyson Hannigan) gave up her crush on Xander in favor of werewolf boy Oz (Seth Green), and watcher Giles (Anthony Stewart Head) began a sweetly tentative relationship with computer teacher (and witch) Jenny Calendar (Robia LaMorte). Mayhem came to Sunnydale, though, in the form of evil vampires Drusilla (Juliet Landau) and Spike (drolly wicked James Marsters), who were more than ready to aid and abet Angel as he turned bad. It all sounds like horror-action mayhem (and there are great fight scenes), but Buffy took on its plotlines with amazing depth, intelligence, and humor. And oh, man, the love story! Buffy and Angel's tragic relationship is one of the most heartbreaking you'll ever find. Buffy's final dilemma finds her having to save the world at Angel's expense, and Gellar (who deserves a passel of Emmys for her work) is phenomenal at telegraphing Buffy's swirling conflicts between love and duty. This is some of the best TV ever made, period. --Mark Englehart

 The best season! November 5, 2008
ADRIENNE MILLER (TENNESSEE)
Buffy the Vampire Slayer - The Complete Second Season is by far the best and most suspenseful season of this cult/classic show. Sarah Michelle Gellar's character Buffy Summers falls in love with a vampire named Angel played by David Boreanaz. The scenes between them are explosive and romantic, the season finale just blew my mind, love it! Great season, have to check it out. Enjoy!
Hello! Buffy - of course it's awesome! October 3, 2008

The Sim Set is a great deal and takes up less space on the DVD shelf. It's also a bit cheaper, and you can't go wrong saving money!
Not much needs to be said about BtVS... it's one of the best series to ever come to television!
Even better the season #1 August 4, 2008

This season had some of the most memorable episodes.
My favorites were the one with the ghost presently reliving his death via students at Sunnydale High. Also Ethan Rayne is introduced in the Halloween episode, where Buffy and the gang become their costumes. Classic!!
Angel isn't a particularly interesting character to me throughout the seasons... even in his own spin-off show. His character is close to cardboard flat, but that doesnt take out of the show.
It continues to deliver!!
Great follow up to Season 1 May 2, 2008

I ordered Season 2 because I was in the process of getting the entire Buffy television series. It's actually a very good season. All though watching Angel as the "Big Bad" of the season was disturbing yet enjoyable at times. I especially enjoyed Spike being introduced into the mix as well. He was always a favorite and I'm so glad they decided not to kill him off as originally planned. So I would definitely recommend this to people who would like to be introduced to the Buffy Universe.
