Summary: A great show comes into its own
Review: I wasn't a regular viewer of Felicity until the last 5 episodes of Season 4, so for the most part I am watching the series for the first time as it is released (all too slowly) on DVD. Much as I adore Season 1, I have to say that the show came into its own in some very important and risky ways after its ratings dropped following the much-ballyhooed haircut. It remains a smart show, with terrific dialogue (very well subtitled on the DVD) and consistently strong acting. Keri Russell's face in any of the guidance counselor/professor/parent scenes is a good example of what I mean: her subtle facial expressions so perfectly convey the character's inner conflicts that it's often difficult to remember that she is acting at all. But on to the risks I mentioned: for all that the show remains very compelling in its second season, it really moved away from the trauma-of-the-week format it tended to follow in Season 1. Allowing the storyline to move so slowly works against every TV drama formula, but the (very successful) result is that the show feels very real. The viewer is given a chance to, rather than forced to, care about the characters and what happens to them. And the Twilight Zone homage/parody episode is one of the greatest things I've ever seen on television.

Summary: Sad to see it go
Review: Well what can you say a about Felicity, it has everything that i look for in a program it can make me cry, it makes me happy, i can get very angry and a lot of the time i just cover my eyes because i can not believie she says half the stuff that comes out of her mouth.
It was very sad for me whan i found out there was to be no more and to hear that the ratings of the show went down in the US because she cut her hair off, i found it to be a joke if you understood the show you would realise it was part of her growing up. Everyone that i know loved her even more when her hair got the chop.
If you wont to see a program that will make you think about your own life and feel like your a part of the show then this is the show for you.

Summary: Speaking only of the DVD features etc.
Review: I can't tell you whether or not you'll enjoy the show--and let's face it, if you're buying the DVD's you probably already saw it, right? Anyway, a few technical points for anyone interested in buying these DVDs: Each episode is one whole chapter, thus although there are about 4 hours of viewing time per disc, there are only four chapters by which you can skip ahead in the storyline--this makes for a lot of fastforwarding if you want to find a certain scene or watch only part of an episode, which can be irritating. Really irritating. The audio commentary--well, it's not great. Actually, I can't think of any DVD on which it is worse. This may be a matter of personal taste, but to have the commentators constantly asking one another, "what scene is this?" "Do you remember shooting this? Because I don't...." "Which episode is this?" "Now why are these two mad at each other?" "who is that character?" was annoying. I can respect that for the commentators these scenes were shot years ago, and I can't and don't fault anyone for forgetting this stuff, but as that's the reality of it, why include commentary at all? It seemed like a bit of a jumbled waste.
(Amendment: the commentary on Help for the Lovelorn and The Slump is much better.) The extras: these are included on disc 6. Neither the box nor the discs themselves give you, the humble viewer, any clue as to where they might be. Like an idiot I went through every disc until I got to the last one and figured it out. Somewhere out there a graphic designer is laughing at me. The extras themselves are really nice inclusions--especially the Emmy parody. The background info on the casting and the unaired pilot give some added insight into the creation of the show. I was not interested in this, but these segments are very well done and I think avid fans would find them worth watching. Sound quality is pretty good, picture is great, subtitles in English or Spanish. Some people wrote about the changes to the music, I didn't notice it too much. Hope that helps someone, me

Summary: As Good As Season 1
Review: I've just received my Felicity Season 2 Set and i started to watch it! It's just a great show in every single thing, even the music (i watch it in Spanish because i live in El Salvador) has not been changed for the Spanish Audio Track. I can't wait any longer to preo-order seasons 3-4, Amazon.com hurry up please!!!

Summary: Not as good as first year
Review: The reason why I loved Felicity was because I could identify with the characters and always wanted to know more about them. I loved the way the story wasn't just about romantic relationships but had a great big deal of so much other stuff like school problems, friendship, roomates issues, etc, etc. On the second year the characters changed a lot (and the reasons for that are unclear) and the story focused too much on guys. I didn't like this new direction but I still think it's a great show.

Summary: Not as good as the first season, but still addictive!
Review: I got quite annoyed when watching Ben and Felicity go back to the same old pattern again and again with all those stupid whinings and their indecisivenss. But, as the story develops in other characters, it became much more enjoyable. The last few eposides were actually beautifully written and directed. The truth is, despite all those "same old Ben and Felicity things" I can never stop myself from watching it and waiting for the third season to come. I guess the music,the emotions and the outstanding performances of the leading actors and actresses, especially Keri Russell, are what made people addictive!

Summary: Felicity is the best show out in years
Review: I can't wait for Seasons 3 and 4 to come out, too. I watch the first two over and over again. The only things that stinks is that they change the original music for so many episodes! Hardly any Sarah McL., which is just such a Felicity staple, and so many of the substitute songs just don't evoke the same emotion as the originals. Why did they do that? Still, it's so fun to see all of the episodes on DVD and the bonus material is nice, too.

Summary: Can those Scotts get any hotter?
Review: I really didn't think it was possible that the second season could be as good as the first, but is was. I pre-ordered the DVD when I saw it was coming out and once I got it, I don't think I could do much of anything until I finished. And of course with any good series, I am tirelessly waiting for the next season.
Also, could Scott Foley and Scott Speedman get any hotter? Wow they both got (a much needed) haircut and wham they are EVEN HOTTER! I can't wait to see who Felicity picks the next year.
Five Stars for Felicity Sophomore Season.
