BUFFY DVDS
The season four DVD of Buffy the Vampire Slayer is now available. In its honor, I've added the full list of Buffy DVDs to the Amazon links to the left. When you order any of these books or DVDs--or when you just go to the Amazon site via one of the links and order something else--I get a percentage of the purchase price.
For the non-commercial significance of Buffy DVDs, see Emily Nussbaum piece from Sunday's NYT: "Using such tools, viewers can delve into 'Buffy' the way we dig into a novel like 'Great Expectations' (which was also originally distributed in installments)--without the cliffhangers, the larger themes rise to the surface." I did my first serious Buffy DVD watching while researching my forthcoming Reason piece on the show, and Nussbaum is absolutely right (though I far prefer Buffy to Dickens, especially Great Expectations).
