Synopsis
Picking up where the first left off, the show's second season finds each character in a state of turmoil. Having lost her husband, Bree uses white wine as a tool for coping with her conniving son and psychopath suitor. Meanwhile Gabrielle ponders whether or not to have a baby, Lynette shakes up her marital dynamics by going back to work, and Susan attempts to move on from Mike. The season also adds several new characters to the mix, including new Wisteria Lane resident Betty Applewhite (Alfre Woodard). And as everybody knows, new neighbours bring new mysteries. What, for example, are those strange sounds coming from Betty's basement?
DVD Description
Secrets and truths unfold through the lives of female friends in one suburban neighborhood, after the mysterious suicide of a neighbor.
Customer Reviews
Brilliant once again
Everyone tells of how season 2 fails to compare to season 1 and 3, and I have to agree it was not as good! So why do I still give it 5 stars then? Well..... seasons 1 & 3 were easily at least 7 stars!!
An extremely watchable show, and I may have to buy the boxsets again as my constant watching of the DVDs has made the box very sruffy and bent!
Review
This series is well good. It is better than The First Series but i feel it isn't as good as the Third Series (Which Is Currrently Showing On TV). It is still a very very thrilling, exciting and funny series with over thousands and thousands of laughs, thrills and scares. Throughout the series is very intense and you are left dying to see the next episode. I also think the special features and extras are brilliant too. This DVD is a must-have.
What happened to the extras?
I have to agree with an earlier reviewer: if the stated extras are there, they're hidden! All the extras are on one disk (which I think is a good idea), but advertised and apparently absent are:
* Bloopers
* Desperate Husbands
* Poker Game
If you have this set and know where you can find these extras, please let me know!
That said, there are other features not mentioned, including:
* Mark & His Mom [US spelling]
* Mark's favourite scenes
* Fashion & Couture (basically, wardrobe)
* Juicy Bites (each actress's favourite scenes)
But returning to the show itself, just as good as always, better than a soap, funnier than a sitcom. A tad far-fetched in places, but then if you've ever been to America ..!
