Rating: Summary: WHERE IS SEASON THREE??!! Review: Interestingly enough, I was born after "The Jeffersons" started running and too young to catch the later years. It's a show that I caught in syndication on TV Land, and I must admit that I am HOOKED!!!!! I have the first two seasons on DVD, and am anxiously awaiting the release of Season Three. I've been checking upcoming release dates, and I see no mention of it! When will it be released?! I'm hoping that enough people will join with me and protest to Sony/Columbia. We want "The Jeffersons"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rating: Summary: Not too much Florence but still very funny Review: It seems like it's taking forever for season 3 to be released but we still have season 2 of "The Jeffersons" to provide us with laughs. The Jeffersons was such a long running series it's hard to remember what happened in what season. Season 2 is a season in where the character of Mama Jefferson was still an integral part of the storyline. Florence was in the cast but she did not play as leading of a role as she did in later episodes. Episode 219, "Florence's Problem" is the only episode where Florence has a leading storyline.But the second season of "The Jeffersons" has some mad hilarious episodes like "George Meets Whittendale" (where George, Helen, and Tom get locked in the bathroom), "George's Best Friend" (Lou Gossett stars as a old Navy pal who hits on Wheezy, and others. This set is 3 discs and worth the money!

Rating: Summary: Great Show...Too bad my copy was defective.... Review: The Jefferson's 2nd Season is one of the show's best. Now you can see this super season in all it's glory! Unfortuately I had to return my first copy becuase for some reason the 1st disc wouldn't play on my 2 DVD players! At least I saw the last 2 discs. I did finally replace it with no problems. Anyways, I love this show and like I stated above, think it's one of the series' best seasons. My favorite episode of course is "George Meets Whittendale" which is the classic episode where George gets locked in the bathroom with the Willises. Funny stuff. A lot of the scenes during this season are featured in the following season's opening title sequence (ex. George dancing on his bed, Louise acting like an indian in front of Lionel and Jenny in the kitchen, the Willises and George locked in the bathroom, etc.) Make sure you get this if you are a fan of The Jeffersons. If you like the first season set, you'll love this, and vice versa.

Rating: Summary: 5 stars for series, 1 for lack of subtitles Review: the jeffersons must be one of the greatest tv shows of all time and this dvd is great. unfortunately I'm really disappointed by the complete lack of subtitles (the first series had them). so I'll give 5 stars for the series (and the dvd the reunites the complete second season) but just 1 star because of the missing subtitles.
Rating: Summary: Funniest And Most Entertaining Sitcom Ever! Review: The JEFFERSONS, without a doubt, was the most hilariously FUNNY sitcom on television. It didn't matter if you tuned in weekly, occasionally or sporadically - you were consistently ENTERTAINED and walked away fully satisfied with every viewing. This show NEVER lost it's appeal nor its audience, and was also one of the most enduring(1975-85) TV sitcoms in television history. MARLA GIBBS as "Florence", without a doubt, has to be the all-time ULTIMATE maid in the sense that she totally took over and ran the household, stole the show each and everytime she appeared on camera, and basically had everyone around her being her servants. She was too funny and quite a memorable character no other actress could have played. Our beloved FLORENCE lives on - instilled in our memories forever! Sherman Hemsley is just as funny and has enjoyed a long running career since the Jeffersons, playing basically, "GEORGE" himself through other subsequent and successful sitcoms. It's always great to see both George and Louise(the lovely ISABEL SANFORD)appearing on commercials and cameos on various sitcoms through the years. The whole Jeffersons gang is here, Mother Jefferson; The Late Roxie Roker("Helen" and rocker Lenny Kravitz' real life Mom); Lionel & Jenny; Tom; etc. The gospel style tinged theme song, "MOVIN' ON UP" written and performed here by none other than the multi-talented JA'NET DUBOIS(she played sassy neighbor "WILLONA" on "Good Times")is also featured in every opening sequence. ISABEL SANFORD once said that CBS cancelled the show without even giving the JEFFERSONS a "Goodbye" final episode, so making it available on Dvd collector's sets to fans kinda makes up for that. I can't wait till all the subsequent seasons are released!
Rating: Summary: The Jeffersons Review: The second season of The Jeffersons is one of the series' best. I highly recommend it for any classic tv fan. Finally we get each season of The Jeffersons together with each episode in its entirety. On TV Land they edit each episode heavily to allow for more commercial time, so there is lots of footage that has not been show since its original run. Only problem is that there are none of the special features we all love and full treatment that other companies like Paramount and Fox have given to the televison shows they have put out. For whatever reason Columbia has not gotten the message that fans want special DVD features. Certainly they could come up with new documentaries and extras for notable and beloved shows like the Jeffersons, All In The Family, and Sanford and Son. Overall I highly recommend the Jeffersons, because we do get the most important thing, which is each full and complete season the the series. Can not wait for season three!
Rating: Summary: WHERE IS SEASON THREE??!! Review: There's a new Lionel and even more laughs and episodes with the hilarious second season of the Jeffersons! This is where the Jeffersons began to literally "move on up" both in writing and character development. In the second season, we not only get to know George & Weezie a lot better, but also the Willis', not to mention Mother Jefferson gets craftier, Bentley gets weirder, Florence gets sassier, and Ralph just gets more shameless! Another big change is Damon Evans replacing Mike Evans as Lionel Jefferson. Damon brings something new to the role and makes it his own from the get go. He would play Lionel until 1978 after which Mike reclaimed the role. Memorable moments abound in this DVD set like when George & Tom wear the same dinner jacket, Weezy's daughter visits, Mother Jefferson fakes a nasty fall, Louis Gosset puts the moves on Weezy, Lionel dents the company van, George locked in the bathroom with the Willis', Lionel & Jenny break up, Florence might jump off the empire state building, Lionel gets drunk, Bentley goes out on a date, George dances on the bed, and much much more! Here's the episode titles: Disc 1: Dinner for Harry George's first vacation Louise's daughter Harry & Daphne Jefferson vs. Jefferson Mother Jefferson's Fall Movin' on down Uncle Bertram George won't talk Disc Two: George's best friend Jenny's grandparents George's alibi George and the manager Lunch with Mama George vs. Wall Street The break up, part 1 The break up, part 2 Florence's problem Disc three: Mother Jefferson's birthday Louise's cookbook George meets Whittendale Lionel's problem Tennis, anyone? The Wedding Don't be a weird dude or a jive turkey...get the Jeffersons Season 2 right now! Can't wait for season 3! By the way, this DVD set has the play all episodes feature and you can skip past the opening theme...as if anyone would want to do that! 3 DVDs and 24 episodes for the same price as season 1! Also recommended: Good Times season one (which Mike Evans co-created and named the family after his!) Sanford & Son seasons 1, 2, & 3 (coming in October 2003!) All in the Family Seasons 1 & 2 and of course the Jeffersons Season 1...duh! WEEZAY!
