DVD Description
As Buffy acompanies Dawn on her first date at the new Sunnydale High, Giles continues Willow's magic education in England. But while Buffy is surprised to be offered a guidance counselor job, Willow is shocked to experience a horrific future vision of the Hellmouth. Willow returns to Sunnydale and Giles soon follows with word that the Watcher's Council has been destroyed. Determined to make one last stand, Buffy and her allies gather for the upcoming battle, yet nothing can prepare them for The First and his robed Bringers, who are killing all the Potential Slayers--and anyone else who gets in their way.

Unlike Season 6, which at times was a bit up and down and didn't seem to have any clear master plan; Season 7 had some real direction right from the first few episodes. All the potential slayers staying with Buffy, Willow dealing with her magic problems, the loss of Tara and moving on, Spike having a soul, Anya and Xander still ruffling each others feathers, Giles being more forceful and serious than ever, Faith back on the right side but still with her classic attitude, the addition of the son of a former slayer....the list goes on.
The "big bad" really is something to behold. "The First" offered so many fascinating story twists, appearing to people in various guises and allowing the viewer to see what was really going on inside the characters, and at the same time not exactly knowing how on earth Buffy and the gang could do anything about it.
Nathan Fillon as the creepy preacher guy Caleb, vessel of the First, was superb....he so provoked the viewer to hate him!!
The inclusion of Andrew as the only "trio" member left was obviously the comic relief character for the series, and although very irritating in the beginning, he becomes quite watchable.
When first viewing this series on TV, some of the episodes seemed to be just fill-ins until the storyline could move on, so it felt like it wasn't going anywhere. But watching the episodes close together as a whole on DVD, it all made sense and doesn't feel so frustrating.
The final episode is pure joy....and sadness. Amazing action and an excellent music score to express it. Every character played their part. Ultimately it's very sad....this is really the end of Buffy. What a way to go out though!
This DVD set has the usual good special features. Interesting commentaries, a couple of featurettes on the fandom of Buffy, and some outtakes...although again the outtakes only last 3 minutes and are a bit disappointing.
All in all, a superb and fitting finale season to Buffy!

Speaking as a Buffy fan, this final season is a must to watch. Dark in places, extremely witty, clever lines as usual, great plots. Fantastic!

Season 7 good so far

Great ending to brilliant series
One of the better seasons, not the best but not the worst either. The ending does the show justice.

Oh God! Please make it stop.

Not bad, but not a fitting end.
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... Read more

Stunning
Love it! Great way (albeit sad to happen) to end the series. Buffy has and always will be my favourite TV programme ever. Highly recommended :)

It's all over.
After a frankly rubbish 6th season, the show shines with brilliance again (sadly for the last time). Read more
