Summary: I'll have another!
Review: After the success of the first season on DVD, we could only expect this to be announced as quickly as possible by Warner Home Video. The second season of "Friends" was brought to viewers with a settled pre-existing foundation. The first season developed each character inch-by-inch until we were ready to root for Ross and Rachel to get together. In a wonderfully conceived cliffhanger to season one we were left questioning the outcome to Rachel's bold move at the airport.

When season two picked up, we found out that Ross was going to be a tougher catch than Rachel thought. This made for quality television when Rachel began to flirt with Ross in blatant attempt at winning his affection. Once Rachel accidently announces to Ross that she has fallen for him, he is presented with the incredibly difficult decision between Julie and Rachel. He's had a crush on Rachel since high school, but he's gotten serious with Julie. That too is accompanied by good writing and classic moments in the "Friends" (and "Mad About You") universe. For all fans of "Friends", we've known for years how these predicaments turn out, and we also anticipate the eventual relationship between Ross and Rachel in this season.

This season is full of quotable dialogue and memorable situations. It easily ranks up there as one of the best "Friends" seasons. The first one started it all, and we are forever in the creators' debt for that, but as the series progressed so did the writing and the actors' performances.

This season houses many classic escapades such as when we find out that Phoebe is married to a Canadian ice skater (who she once thought was gay), when Ross finds out about Rachel's reciprical desire when she says, "I'm over you"(in which he replies, "You're over me? When were you under me?"), the hilarious prom video that reflects on the Geller's past (and proves to Rachel that Ross has always felt something for her), the star-studded two-parter that aired around the superbowl(featuring Brooke Shields, Jean-Claude Van Damme, and Julia Roberts), when Monica starts dating Richard (played by Tom Selick), and when Joey moves out and is replaced by the annoying and potentially psychotic roommate Eddie.

It's all here, and complemented by some nice looking extras. The two commentary tracks will definitely provide us with anecdotes up the wazoo and the tour of Monica and Rachel's apartment will be just as informative as was the tour of Central Perk on the season one DVD. On top of that, you get every episode in their uncut form.

I'm an assured fan of "Friends" and am eagerly awaiting this box-set, which arrives on September 3rd. If you enjoyed the first season on DVD, I suggest you reserve a copy of "Friends - The Complete Second Season" now. For anyone who hasn't seen the second season of "Friends" before during its television run, this won't disappoint.

Summary: Actually this season has more than Ross and Rachel kissing
Review: I am still not at the point where I can recognize the bonus footage included in "Friends: The Complete Second Season" on DVD, but I can tell that the second season was an overall improvement on the first, despite the fact that the series did not put its best foot forward with "The One After the Super Bowl Pars 1 & 2" (thumbs up on Julia Roberts, both thumbs down on Brooke Shields and Jean-Claude Van Damme). Obviously getting Ross (David Schwimmer) and Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) to the point where they would actually kiss was a key dynamic, but what made this a better season was that Monica (Courtney Cox) and Joey (Matt LeBlanc), the two weakest characters in the first season, were finally given something to do. For Monica it was a romance with Dr. Richard Burke (Tom Selleck), the old friend of the family, while Joey landed the unforgettable part of Dr. Drake Ramoray on "Days of Our Lives" and actually moves out of the apartment with Chandler. Chandler (Matthew Perry) continues to crack jokes to ease all the pain in his life and Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) sings "Smelly Cat" for the first time, but even as background for most of these episodes they both steal their share of scenes.

Best episodes from the Second Season: "The One with Ross' New Girlfriend," but because Phoebe gives Monica the wrong "Moore" style hair cut (Dudley instead of Demi) more than Rachel discovering Ross is now with Julie the paleontologist; "The One Were Heckles Dies," not only because the girl inherit his junk, but because Phoebe goes toe to toe with Ross on evolution; "The One With Ross Finds Out," where Rachel protests too much about being "over" Ross; "The One with the Prom Video" and the killer moment when Rachel finds out what she did not know way back when and discovers Ross is her "lobster"; "The One Where Eddie Moves In," where Adam Goldberg moves into Chandler's apartment and provides the best guest starring role of the season (plus the "Smelly Cat" video); "The One Where Old Yeller Dies" and Phoebe finds out why her moment never let her seen the end of the famous Disney doggie snuff film; "The One with the Bullies," where Chandler and Ross go to toe to toe with a couple of bullies over the couch at Central Perk; and "The One with Barry & Mindy's Wedding," where the focus might be on Rachel as maid of honor at her ex-fiance's wedding, but the pivotal point is Monica and Richard breaking up over the subject of children (cross apply the irony and poignancy to this season's adoption plot line forced by Arquette's real world problems conceiving: is there anyone on the planet that more people would like to see pregnant?).

If the first season was a 4.0, then the second gets "Friends" up to 4.5. The justification for rounding up is the payoff to "The One with the Prom Video" (the kiss and not what Monica discovers her parents had put on the end of the videotape). "TV Guide" listed that as one of the Top 100 moments in television history, and it was not until Chandler's proposal to Monica turned out to really be a surprise that the series topped this one. If only Ross and Rachel did not go "on a break" during the next season, then things might have turned out differently.

Summary: Friends- The Complete Second Season
Review: Friends- The Complete Second Season is GREAT! It is full of lots of great extras. I especially liked the tour of Rachel and Monica's apartment. The trivia was easy!

I liked this season becasue Ross and Rachel finally got together! I mean it had to happen and I think the writers did it very well. I had many favorite episodes but I think that "The One Where Ross Finds Out" is the best. I remember being so excited to see the next episode.

Here are all the episodes included on the DVD's

1. "The One With Ross' New Girlfriend" - I did not like Julie

2. "The One With the Breast Milk" - I thought it was funny when Rachel got mad about Monica and Julie having lunch and going shopping

3. "The One Where Heckles Dies"

4. "The One With Phoebe's Husband"

5. "The One With Five Steaks, An Eggplant"

6. "The One With the Baby on the Bus"

7. "The One Where Ross Finds Out" - This one is the best! I love the end where Ross leaves and then comes back and Rachel cant get the door open.

8. "The One With the List" - I think Rachel over reacted in this one.

9. "The One With Phoebe's Dad"

10. "The One With Russ"

11. "The One With the Lesbian Wedding"

12. "The One After the Super Bowl"

13. "The One With the Prom Video" - I almost cried at this one.

14. "The One Where Ross and Rachel...You Know"

15. "The One Where Joey Moves Out"

16. "The One Where Eddie Moves In"

17. "The One Where Dr. Ramoray Dies"

18. "The One Where Eddie Won't Go"

Summary: More fun
Review: The second season of "Friends" still provides plenty of laughs even though it veers into more conventional sitcom plotlines that it did during its first season. There is some silliness over a list that has Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) all steamed when she should be falling in love with Ross (David Schwimmer)-just artificial drama cooked up to postpone the inevitable kiss in the hopes of making it a bigger "ahhh" moment. There are also a few stereotypical situation comedy situations based on pulling off some outlandish deception that no one with an ounce of sense could possibly fall for, such as "The One With Two Parties" (although the writers seem to be acknowledging this when Chandler [Matthew Perry] delivers the great line: "I wonder what Jack and Chrissie would do now?"). Some unfortunate guest stars don't help matters.

Despite these flaws, there are some great moments as well. Tom Selleck has a fun and touching recurring role as Monica's (Courtney Cox) older boyfriend, Dr. Richard Burke. A story arc concerns Joey's (Matt LeBlanc) success on a soap opera and his subsequent decision to move out; Adam Goldberg has a great role as Chandler's psychotic new roommate. "The One With the Prom Video," in which Ross and Rachel finally kiss, is genuinely touching despite all the contrived shenanigans leading up to it.

Just seven more seasons to go.
