Summary: Friends: The Complete Second Season (1995-1996)
Review: "Friends" became a bigger hit than anybody had expected it to be. After the first season, ratings were sky high. The cast came back in September of 1995 for their long, anticipated second season.

Our six best friends are back in their second season. Picking up where the final episode of the first season had left off, Rachel anxiously waits at the airport for Ross, who is flying back to the states from China. Rachel is so anxious to tell him that she knows about his love for her and that she feels the same way, hoping she and Ross could start dating. But Rachel is heartbroken when she finds Ross stepping off of the plane with another woman named Julie.

For the first few episodes, Ross continues to date Julie, while Rachel angrily bickers over it. We also learn that Phoebe is secretly married to a gay Canadian ice dancer named Duncan. He only married Phoebe for his greencard. Phoebe spends time with Duncan after a night of performing. He tells Phoebe that he needs a divorce because he met someone else...a woman. Turns out that Duncan was not gay. The woman he is seeing is about to become his future wife. Also, Monica and Rachel's annoying neighbor, Mr. Heckles, who lives one floor below them, passes on. Mr. Heckles was a lonely hermit. Chandler learns that when Heckles was young, he dismissed woman that had features that just didn't sit right with him. Chandler realizes that he does the exact same thing. He calls Janice, wanting to get back together with her, wanting to make a commitment, but Janice couldn't wait around for Chandler. Janice had gotten married to the boss of Mattress King. The two have a kid on the way.

Rachel learns that her ex-fiancé, Barry, is engaged to her best friend, Mindy, who was supposed to stand as Rachel's maid of honor. Ross suddenly finds out about Rachel's feelings for him. He breaks up with Julie and hopes to date Rachel, but Chandler and Joey talk him into making up a list of pros and cons between the girls. Rachel becomes angry and then dismisses the idea of dating Ross. But she changes her mind when she and Monica watch the home video of their Senior Prom. Rachel's date practically never showed up, forcing Ross to vow to take Rachel. But when Ross comes downstairs, finally dressed. Rachel's date shows up, leaving Ross heartbroken. Feeling terrible about knowing this, Rachel decides to give the romance a chance with Ross.

Monica, with Phoebe's help, caters for a party, held by Dr. Richard Burke. Richard is an ophthalmologist, who is best friends with Monica and Ross' dad. But Richard and Monica find love in each other's eyes and the two begin a healthy relationship, despite the 25-year age difference. Joey is offered a small role on one episode of Days Of Our Lives as a cab driver, but the producers changed their minds and gave Joey the permanent role of Dr. Drake Ramoray on the same show. But Joey was killed off early, when he revealed that he changes his lines. Rachel finds out that her mother and father are getting a divorce. Sandra Green, Rachel's mother, only tells Rachel because she hoped Rachel would understand. Rachel asks her why, of all people, would she understand. Sandra reveals that, "...You didn't marry your Barry, dear. But I married mine." At the same time, Ross finds out that Carol and Susan want to get married. Ross is less enthused about it, but he comes to Carol's rescue when her parents decide not to show up and give her away. Ross stands in and gives Carol away.

Barry and Mindy's wedding has arrived. Mindy has requested that Rachel be her maid of honor. Rachel has no intentions of showing up, but decides to do so in order to redeem herself in front of Barry's family. Ross goes along with Rachel to the wedding, with the company of Monica and Richard. Monica talks to Richard about a future. Richard agrees with Monica until Monica brings up one little thing: children. Monica really wants children, but Richard already has two children: Timothy Burke and Michelle Burke. Richard is not up to doing it all again, forcing Monica to make the painful decision she does not want to make. They sadly break up. At that time, Chandler has an all-night online conversation with a woman, who he seems to really like. He discovers that she is married, which leaves him devastated, but his hopes are brought back up when she tells him that she's getting a divorce. They set up a meeting at the coffeehouse. Chandler's mystery internet girl is...Janice. Chandler discards Janice's annoying characteristics and develops a long-term relationship with her.

More fun is to be seen in the second season. Buy the complete second season and laugh yourself to death over again.

Summary: truly amazing and funny show ever made
Review: This is SUCH a great season of Friends! When i first got this season of friends i was new to the series, but i got into this straight away! i was laughing up until the point of tears! SO MUCH! you dont "really" need any introduction to friends to watch this! (except it would be good to watch the first series first, but this is not necessary.) Also the special features are good, not brillient, but pleasing. My favourite being the FULL Smelly Cat Video after the quiz! its soooo halarious! This dvd version of Friends Season 2 has never before seen footage so, even if you have seen the eps. its worth getting!
If you havent seen them its a gret intro. so my conclusion get it NOW!
Episodes *****
Special Features ****1/2
