Buffy The Vampire Slayer - Giles

[Highly rated reviewer]

superb..................

my daughter loved this dvd. the 4 episodes included on this dvd are:

'The Dark Age' is an early second season episode, that starts off with a demon that possesses bodies coming to Sunnydale, as it tracks down anyone representing a particular Etruscan tattoo. The latest corpse, turns out to be someone from Giles' past, and the tattoo is revealed to be the Mark of Eyghon, a demon that Giles and Ethan Rayne worshipped when they were young punks. Now Eyghon is making the rounds, killing everybody in the old gang, and Giles and Ethan are last on the list. Then, just to make things interesting, Eyghon takes over Jenny's body. Gripping stuff!

'Passion' from later on in the second season is probably my favorite Giles episode containing three memorable moments. The first is when Giles discovers that Angelus has killed Jenny Calendar and left her in his bed, the second is when Giles launches an assault on Angelus at the warehouse, and the third is when Buffy knocks some sense into her Watcher and tells him that she cannot do this without him.

'A New Man' from Season 4 is when Ethan Rayne returns to Sunnydale, talks Giles into going out for a beer, and turns the former Watcher into a Fyarl demon. Those are the ones that are very strong and have a paralyzing hard-as-rock mucous (but no sizzling eye beams). Unfortunately Buffy things that this particular Fyarl demon has done something to Giles so she is hunting him down and Giles has to turn to Spike, who happens to speak Fyarl, for help.

'Lies My Parents Told Me' comes from the show's final season. Giles returns to Sunnydale, with news that he found a way of removing the trigger, that causes Spike to do bad things. While Spike flashes back to 1880, just before Drusilla turned him into a vampire, Principal Wood reveals to Giles, that his mother Nikki was one of the Slayers killed by Spike. Giles tries to keep Buffy diverted, while Wood goes after Spike, but she catches on and ends up turning her back on Giles.

well worth renting out

Wonderful Episodes

As every season goes on they get better, the same can be said for the episodes in this season, with every episode there was suspense, laughter and as always in buffy the fights, got better each time it came close to the last episode.
