Ok, I did a search on Buffy topics before posting and didn't see this topic anywhere in this forum...so hopefully this isn't old news:

a quote from
http://www.dvddebate.com/article.php?sid=1929

"Season 3 will not be transferred in its original widescreen format, but will be the same 4:3 transfer as the previous 2 seasons.

As fans will know, as of season 3 the series was shot for US high def TV in widescreen - indeed it's shown here on the Beeb in anamorphic widescreen. Fox claim to be unable to source anamorphic widescreen masters for the series"

Hmmmmm... I was willing to suffer (sorta ;) ) 16mm 4:3 for 2 seasons knowing seasons 3 onwards would be in widesceen.

Ok, my bad.

Apparently season 3 changed to 35 mm film but did not go widescreen until 4th season ( the college episodes).
