Summary: Bye Bye Blue on DVD
Review: Just found out that this is all we are going to get as the studio has pulled the plug on further NYPD blue season releases on DVD due to poor sales. Shame on all you out there who have not bought your own copies and ensured we can get all the seasons

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Still good -but not as good without David Caruso
Review: N.Y.P.D. Blue Season 2 is still a good show without David Caruso but it lacks the magic sparkle that the 1st season has. There are many guest stars who went on to become big stars : Michael Imperioli ( 'Christopher' on "The Soprano's ),Peter Boyle ( the monster in "Young Frankenstein" movie)and more guest stars- but without David Caruso's character providing the sexy romantic luster =this is just a good cop show. How they thought that the high pitched voice and dull lack of appeal of Jimmy Smits could ever replace Caruso is a big unanswered question. If you want to see why this program became a hit- buy Season 1. If you want to just see a good police program with good guest stars- this is your season to buy on dvd.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best police dramas ever made!
Review: NYPD Blue is one of the best police dramas ever made! What really impresses me is David Caruso is on the first 4 episodes of the 2nd season. It is sad that he left the cast after the 4th episode of season 2, but I found Jimmy Smits to be a very good replacement! The acting is just like real police detectives on this show. This show and "The Shield" are the two best police dramas ever made in my opinion. I highly recommend both of these DVDs if you are a big fan of police shows!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simone Says!
Review: NYPD Blue season 2 is where we say goodbye to John Kelly (David Caruso) and meet Bobby Simone (Jimmy Smitts). Simone is by far the greatest Blue character ever! We meet Bobby about 4 or 5 episodes into the second season. This DVD set is a must have for any Blue fan! You can see Bobby from the very beginning, then in the future--buy the other Blue boxed sets all the way to his tear-jerking death.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Solid Season 2
Review: Okay, I just binged on the entire NYPD Blue Season 2 collection, all I can say that Season 2 was one great season! NYPD blue returns with a bang, this time with the addition of detective Bobby Simone a hard hitting Puerto-Rican French detective with a nose for crime. While Simone lacks some of Kelly's straight-laced manner, he's also slightly more accessible. (Kelley was a bit too rigid, imho). Lipowicz is of course excellent... Although I COULD do without the numerous scenes of him using the john, and half-naked. Sorry, he's a great actor but seeing Lipowicz's tush does nothing for me. Also I do think the female detectives didn't have half as much personality or screen time. (If I see another alcoholism subplot I will scream)!

This is a great series, sure to delight fans of police drama. But...Just once, I'd like to see the cops outfoxed by a criminal. Watching NYPD Blue, you'd think all the detectives were Mensa candidates and we all know that just aint so!

Summary: NYPD Blue RIP
Review: Recalling the depature of David Caruso, it seemed at the time that NYPD Blue was a lost cause. But just when things looked bleak, along comes Jimmy Smits to put his stamp on the show and help take NYPD Blue to a whole new level.

The turnover is handled superbly (and explained on the commentary for the episode "Simone Says" by David Milch) with Bobby Simone crossing out Kelly's name on the locker and writing in his own while the always excellent Dennis Franz (Andy) complains to the Lieutenant that this just can't possibly work out after one "how ya doin'?"

The entire set is great with the last episodes of John Kelly leading off the season. The set is packaged well and includes a few extras and insightful commentaries.

Why NYPD Blue RIP at the top? Because the idiots at Fox did not make enough money on the release of seasons one and two and appear in no hurry (and probably unlikely) to release any other seasons! Disappointing to say the least. There should be someone to complain to.

Summary: Why didn't I watch this show in 1994
Review: Season two is just as good as season. I never watched the show and realize now what I have been missing. Several powerful episodes. Sipowitz is a great charecter and Simone comes out strong. I was worried when Kelly keft the show, but Simone is a better, more well rounded charecter.


Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Jimmy Smits + NYPD Blue= BRILLIANT
Review: This is an excellent season of NYPD BLue. Blue at its best. Smits and Franz have great chemistry and are so believable as partners and friends. If you missed this season, here's your chance to see it.

Donna Abandondo and Dt. Medavoy are a pleasant surprise in this season. And her sister, played by Debra Messing, is an excellent wrench they threw in there. Dt. Leziniack and the ensuing problematic issues between she and James is a twist a minute.

Smits is more than an able replacement for Caruso. He not only has sex appeal and charisma, he is ACTUALLY attractive, rather than thinking he is handsome--Caruso. The show smartly plays Simone's arrival and the inevitable bonding between he and Franz is nicely done.

The second season is BETTER than the first. A must have for a BLUE fan
