Back in December, when the 5th season set of
Buffy the Vampire Slayer was released, Fox included an insert that said when the
Season 6 set could be expected: "Available May 2004," the insert said.
We immediately posted
this news item clarifying that according to sources at Fox, this insert contained old information, and that the date had been delayed until July 6th.
Today Fox reversed themselves, and made their insert true. In a statement released to retailers and press, Fox Home Entertainment announced that
Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Season 6 would now have a street date of May 25, 2004.
We know this will suite many American
Buffy fans very well. Not only is it sooner, it's just before the long Memorial Day holiday, so anyone so inclined can go all through it in a 3-Day weekend!
Price and other specs have not changed, just the date. To remind yourself about further details of this release, click
