Interview with the guy responsible for putting the show on DVD. My
favourite:

Q: Do you think that the nature of the extras will change for more recent
seasons, as the Buffy team become more DVD 'savvy'?

A: One of the really interesting things on these TV properties, particularly
on something like Buffy where it’s been out for a while, [is that] when
season one was created, no one was thinking of the DVD.

When they’re filming this year’s series, you bet they’re thinking of the
DVD, and if something’s been cut they’re automatically thinking, yeah, that
can go on the DVD. Filmmakers and TV producers are thinking of that much,
much more than they ever were.

So, I think what you see is that as seasons get up to date, the quality of
extras that are on the disks will improve, because people are thinking about
it when they’re in production.

Yeah, good interview.

I kinda liked the bit where he was (off the top of his head)
contemplating a DVD release for OMWF all on it's lonsesome. Thing of the
potential for special features....droool....as it stands, I think S6
needs an extra disc ;-)
