Hmmmm....... Review date: 2007-11-19 Rating: 8 out of 10 I find it hard to make up my mind about season seven. Ultimately I think it's a series that promises much but just falls short of greatness. It's obviously light years better than six, but it can't touch the high points of two and five. It's the structure that's most dissatisfying. 21 episodes of building up to the big final showdown between the 'potential slayers' and ultimate evil The First, and then the end comes so quickly that you are left thinking 'is that it?'. Several of the earlier episodes could very easily have been compressed, and that would have left room for a less rushed finale - giving a decent send-off to the two long-standing characters who die, for instance. One of them, a regular for years, is barely acknowledged, which leaves a bad taste. The rush also reduces David Boreanaz's return to a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameo. Bad guys are a problem, too. For much of the series The First is really just an abstract concept, which can only hang around in incorporeal form making threats. The introduction of a flesh-and-blood enemy, evil 'priest' Caleb, makes things much more frightening (and he is brilliantly played by Nathan Fillion) - but he doesn't show up until five episodes from the end. It would have been so much more interesting if he'd been in from the beginning of the season. Other than that, there are the Bringers and the ubervamps, which are both frightening enough but, as wordless monsters, not particularly interesting. On the positive side, it's nice to have Faith back, James Marsters is great as the newly-ensoulled and suffering Spike, and Dawn is finally starting to earn her keep. Bringing Andrew back added some comedy, even if he does get too much time. In fact, the series as a whole is much funnier than the grindingly depressing series 6, and scarier, too; while the end, despite the rush, is suitably spectacular (bar some dodgy CGI to remind us that this is TV, not film). In the end, the season as a whole is good enough to rescue it from series six. That left me wishing they'd just left Buffy in the ground at the end of five; after seven, I'm glad they didn't. I think. Not bad, but not a fitting end. Review date: 2007-07-07 Rating: 8 out of 10 I was gravely disappointed with season 7. The stand alone episodes vary hugely in quality (from the phenomenal Selfless, to the atrocious Him) and the season arc suffers from some very annoying potentials. Yes, I do mean Rhona or whatever her name is. Some of it is fantastic though! Giles comes back for the vast majority of the season, Michelle Trachtenberg is finally working for me as Dawn, Andrew (Tom Lenk) is back and so is Eliza Dushku as Faith! Even Angel makes a brief appearance! This season is about going back to the beginning (as brilliantly emphasised by the closing season of episode 1 with all past Big Bads appearint to Spike as The First) and for the most part it works. Best episodes: Selfless (about damn time Anya had her own epiosde!), Conversations with Dead People (even if we did have to put up with Azura Skye instead of Amber Benson), Storyteller (hilarious). Things that didn't work: Principal Wood and Spike's trigger (boring) So then we come to the final episode Chosen. I have very mixed opinions on this. I love White Willow, I love the final scene between Buffy and Spike, and I LOVE the little call back to the pilot when Buffy, Xander and Willow walk away talking about shopping and Giles mutters "the world is doomed". However, I don't like that Anya dies. Joss has stated that he couldn't consider it a happy ending if anyone we cared about died. Ok, a bunch of potentials die but they are for the most part annoying, Spike dies but it had already been announced that he was moving on to Angel so that didn't really pack an emotional punch but hang on, I care about Anya! She's been there since season 3, she was always one of my favourite characters and to kill her in such a blink-and-you'll-miss-it way really made me angry. That said, this is a good season with some great charcter work for all the gang. Best bit by far: Finally Buffy mentions that "Kick his ass" comment from Xander in Season 2 and Nathan Fillion as Caleb is obviously having a LOT of fun Product Details/SpecificationsActor(s): Nicholas Brendon Nick Marck James Marsters Sarah Michelle Gellar Danny Strong Creators: Sarah Michelle Gellar (Primary Contributor) Nicholas Brendon (Primary Contributor) Recording label: 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment Manufacturer: 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment EAN: 5039036018630 Binding: DVD Number of items: 6 Format: PAL, Widescreen, Release date: 2006-05-08 Aspect ratio: 1.78:1 Audience rating: Suitable for 15 years and over Region code: 2 Running time: 899 minutes Theatrical release date: 2002 Language: English (Subtitled) Language: English (Original Language)
