According to Ain't It Cool News, the Season 5 DVD of "Buffy" will be released on December 9, 2003.

There's also a tid-bit about the movie written and directed by Amber Benson, "Chance".

Couldn't be more thrilled at this news (well, okay maybe if they'd announced that they were releasing the next 5 Xena seasons all at once...)
Still, I'm psyched-- just in time for Santa!
