Season 3 by a mile. Gets its only dud, Dead Man's Party, out of the way early on, and from then on it goes from strength to strength, has some of the best standalones the show's ever done - Band Candy, The Wish, Dopplegangland, Homecoming combined with the show's strongest arc and best villain. Plus add Faith, Wesley and full time Oz, and you've got yourself a great season.
 
Here's my list:

1 - Season 4. I don't know why I just loved the concept of the Initiative. I also love Spike being a Prisoner. One of the more underrated humor episodes I think is Pangs. "You made a Bear" "I didn't mean to" "Undo it, Undo it". Haha Cracks me up everytime.

2 - Season 2. This is the season that got me hooked for good. Angel turning evil was one of the most risky, and clever ideas I have ever seen. I LOVED it!

3 - Season 3. Great Overall Season. I love the Mayor.

4 - Season 5. I like Glory, but Dawn annoyed me this season.

5 - Season 6. Some great episodes. I like how the show went to some dark places, that we all personally go through at times.

6 - Season 1. Good Start to the series. Some good episodes.

7 Season 7. Not a bad season. Too much going on, but still overall pretty decent. I like the High School and First Evil plot lines.

Season Three Is Def My Fave By A Long Shot because it has lots of Faith and Its Just the Right Mix Of Dark And Funny.....Season 6 really annoyed me at bits, Like The Whole Buffy needs A Job Thing...........Considering I'm really not a fan of Dawn I did like Season Five But This Was Just Because Glory is My Favourite Big Bad I Just Wish Faith Was In Season 5 Cause Faith And Glory Would Have Been Great Together!
 
In my early Buffy-years i would defintely have said season 2 with s.3 as the next best thing. Nowdays I appreciate the the last ones more. Ask me in two years time and I might have changed my mind again. For now I have to say season 5.
 
Alright, I got a new list:

1. S6
2. S4
3. S2
4. S1
5. S3
6. S5

I'm pretty sure this'll change if I ever re-watch every season again. (Besides S4&S6)
 
Ok, so I do a full list too:

1. 2
2. 3
3. 6

Those three are pretty close to each other, I like any one of those clearly more than any of the other four. 2 wins over 3 because I considered the Angelus arc somewhat better than the Mayor/Faith one (now that's sure to draw a heated discussion *g*), and they both rank before 6 as I've always had a very soft spot for the high school seasons - which is a main reason why I tend to be (possibly undeservedly) harsh on S4.

4. 5
5. 1 and 7, can't decide
6. 4

Gotta say though, I'm rewatching the first half of S4 atm (haven't got the second half taped) and I definitely like it much better than the last time I've seen it (it's been a while). Even laughed myself silly at "Beer Bad", even though that's an ep you definitely shouldn't try to take seriously. Buffy Want Beer!! :lmao:

Still, while the season may start to grow on me, Riley doesn't. :wink:
 
My favourite season was number 5. I thought it was full of action...and the sub story of Willow and Tara was really well filmed.
and boy, when they got serious, i sure got myself some tips 😉

sarahissexy you got tips. im confused tips on lesbian love ??
Season 3. Definitely.

All the characters' individual storylines were interwoven so well throughout the whole season. So much between them all.

And it's the last season where the entire original cast was together. 😀
 
Six, with two as a close second.

I loved OMWF through Seeing Red. I could not take my eyes off the screen. I just kept popping DVDs into my player. OMWF was full of singing. I mean, come on! Tabula Rasa cracked me up. Smashed surprised the heck out of me (plus, it had the freeze ray! hahaha). Wrecked had freaky Trainspotting stuff going on, which I loved. Gone cracked me up (flying pizza!). Doublemeat Palace filled me with empathy and made me remember my food service days. I didn't like Dead Things so much, I'll grant you, but I really liked Older and Far Away. I liked how everything with Dawn sort of came to a head in that one. Okay, so I didn't like As You Were (that whole egg thing was never really explained), but Next comes Hell's Bells, which is awesome! Normal Again was a mind trip, Entropy was funny AND we got Tillow back, and then Seeing Red was the most intense episode of TV ever. I think I was shocked at every turn. I was so engaged for this entire run that I just can't help but choose it.

I'll spare you my poorly written litany of the virtues of season 2 and just say that I loved Angelus and I loved Sprusilla. Put the two (or three) together and what do you get? A happy Palabra, that's what! Besides, Giles was so brave.

My vote goes to Season 2. In order, my fave seasons rank(and the first few were very close to judge): 2, 6, 3, 5, 1, 7, 4

I made a decision a long time ago that I was going to shelf my DVD's for a while, and then watch the series again with fresh eyes. It's been a long time since I've watched BtVS, and I'm now up to mid-season 4. And I think this review of the series may change my ranking a little. The one thing I'll say at this point - I've never been a huge fan of the Buffy-Riley relationship(which is a huge part of season 4), but all I'll say is that I think I may have been a bit harsh on season 4 as a whole.

Anyone else ever done this after going back and re-watching?

s4 really grew on me too after watching it over a few times
Hehe... we really do have a lot in common, tastewise, don't we? It was exactly the same for me - while I hated S4 on first view, I liked it a lot better when I recently rewatched it for the first time like three years or so and had to change my ranking of the seasons accordingly.

Anyway, I know there are people here who like Riley *shudder*, but has anyone, ever, been "a huge fan of the Buffy-Riley relationship"? :biggrin:

YES! They're my favorite! Seriously.
season 3.. definitely.
I loved Faith, the drama amongst the scoobies (initially with Buffy lying to them about Angel and then all of the scandal and break ups lol), the last year of High School, Giles development, the Mayor, Joyce's involvement and her attempt to get involved in the slaying, 'Band Candy', 'The Wish' and 'Graduation Day'!!! There is so much more to talk about! I loved it all. OOOOHHH and Willow: "Hey Big Boy, Come and get it."
 
I too love season 3 although its hard to choose. I wouldn't say season 4 was my least favourite (that's season 1). I loved the character changes in season 4 and the beginning of Willow and Tara and Xander and Anya. I thought Xander's storyline in that season was the best with his friends all leaving him to go off to college and him trying to escape the basement and find his way in life.
 
i have to say that season 2 and 3 were both my favorites but if i had a gun to my head or a stake to my heart i would say 2 over 3 mainly becuase i like the relationship and friction between buffy and angel
 
season 6 definitely!
i love virtually every episode and it has me going through every emotion from laughter to crying. i love tara/willow and the progression of dark willow... watching season 1 and 2 i never would've believed willow could turn like that!! seeing buffy brought back to life and the trauma that comes with it, her relationship with spike and him ending up with his soul... just wow.
plus once more with feeling is amazingly fabulous!!!
 
This was REALLY hard because I had to chose between season 5 and season 2! I ended up voting for season 5 but it was really close! Season 5 just had so much passion and emotion in it!

My rankings:
1. Season 5
2. Season 2
3. Season 6
4. Season 1
5. Season 3
6. Season 7
7. Season 4
 
ALRIGHT! I have an official order of favorites now:

1) Season 6
2) Season 4
3) Season 7
4) Season 2
5) Season 1
6) Season 3
7) Season 5

As you can see, I'm a much bigger fan of the After High School Years more than the High School years. I think I'm gonna watch every episode AGAIN in order, with no breaks inbetween seasons, and I just might change my mind. You never know.
