While the idea of infusing a weekly TV series with a Broadway musical ethos isn't exactly a new one--think Randy Newman's ambitious Cop Rock--it became something of a turn-of the-century television mini-trend. But few have reached as far--or succeeded--like this November 2001 episode of Fox Network's Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Penned by series creator-producer Joss Whedon and performed by Sarah Michelle Gellar and cast, it's a loving, loopy musical pastiche that takes potshots at everything from Andrew Lloyd Webber to alt-rock. Paralleling the show's lovable pop culture tweaking, the musical styles here (the episode's musical conceit is a curse visited upon Buffy's hometown of Sunnydale) range from a patent footlight chorus of demons being interrupted by Gellar's hard-rocking stake thrusts on "Going Through the Motions" to Spike the Vampire's goth-metal complaint "Rest in Peace," with everything from parking tickets and mustard stain removal to climactic duels with the supernatural getting the Broadway send-up. Also includes strong orchestral score-suites from three other episodes, as well as Whedon and wife Kai Cole's demo for "Something to Sing About." --Jerry McCulley

I am a big Buffy fan and I totally love this CD. I bought it 6 months ago and it has not left my car yet. When there is nothing on the radio, it is the first choice for the CD player. I sing along and visualize the episode. LOVE IT!!!3) Best DVD collection ever! [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Any Buffy fan will love this collection. I watched the entire series over the summer and it was great seeing them all one right after the other. It gave me an appreciation and a deeper understanding of the series that was harder to get when watching each week. The commentaries are great, and the extras are fabulous. I am so happy to own this collection.4) Awesome! [Rating: 4 out of 5]

This CD is really excellent- bought one for myself and my son- we are both HUGE Buffy fans. Play it in my car all the time (drive my husband crazy!). But thanks for a great CD
