Frasier The Complete Second Season :: Education by Design Store

Editorial Review
Frasier picked up its second season with another round of comedy as intelligent as its pompous title character. Fortunately, the sniping between Frasier (Kelsey Grammer) and his father, Marty (John Mahoney), that took up a lot of the first season is mostly past, and the crack ensemble was ready to roll in a number of memorable episodes. Frasier tries to set up Daphne (Jane Leeves) with the new station manager in "The Matchmaker," Frasier, Niles (David Hyde Pierce), and Marty go fishing in "Breaking the Ice," Frasier and Niles jump into politics in "The Candidate," the team of Frasier and Roz (Peri Gilpin) breaks up ("Roz in the Doghouse"), and Frasier and Niles open a restaurant in "The Innkeepers." It was Pierce's Niles who emerged as a star in the second season, lusting after Daphne, learning about parenthood in "Flour Child," and challenging a Bavarian fencer for the hand of his ever-absent wife, Maris, in the comic tour de force "An Affair to Forget." Pierce picked up a well-deserved first Emmy, and the show repeated its first-season Emmys for comedy series and lead actor. Frasier's dates included Jobeth Williams (whom he takes on a disastrous getaway to Bora Bora), Shannon Tweed, and Tea Leoni, and other guest stars were Nathan Lane and, from his original show, Cheers, Bebe Neuwirth and Ted Danson. --David Horiuchi

As good as ever, i did have the serries on video but as the video player is no longer working it was time to get the dvd. i chose to get from the usa because it is cheaper than buying from the uk , and as i have a region 1 dvd player it is ok. i find buying from the states easier and sometime has even been faster delivary than the uk.

Hours of good clean laugh-out-loud fun! Kelsey Grammer at his best along with a perfect group of supporting actors. Each is outstanding. Sit back, relax and prepare to laugh!

GREAT SHOW, LOUSY DVD

I am as devoted a Frasier fan as most out there, but having seen Season One in Dolby 5.1 with subtitles and other delectable features, I am appalled that the publishers turned so greedy with rolling out a quick and dirty version of subsequent seasons that we have to pay premium prices for such sub-par lemons:

(1) The sound is 2.0 and doesn't sound much better than old mono. Whatever happened to Dolby or DTS? Surely Frasier is recent enough for the producers to have all the necessary bells and whistles (tracks).

(2) The quality of the video is tragically ordinary. It pixelates often, even on a top of the line LCD set. It's more like a VCD slapped with a DVD label.

(3) Subtitles are especially useful for a program that's punch-drunk on esoteric references to high society stuff such as Opera and French wines, but it's remiss in Season Two and beyond.

The only other item on these discs is a boring "Celebrity Voices" bit that's only for the particularly nosy as you hear them in the episodes anyway. As much as I find the show top of the heap--and Season Two is probably even sharper than Season One--this is a pathetic excuse for a DVD at its price tag. "Basic" DVDs of the caliber that you see for old black and white movies on the bottom shelf should be priced much lower.

excellent buy!

Frasier - The Complete Second Season

An excellent season. As good as the first if not better. The quality of the comedic acting and writing is second to none. I recommend it for everyone.

Good Price, Good Item

I was pleased overall with this item, the outside case looked brand new, and the discs all play perfectly. The only problem is that one of the disc holders inside the case is broken so the disc slides around in the case. However, this was not a bad enough damage to return the item, and I would buy from this dealer again.

It took a long time for the package to arrive, but after tracking through USPS, I realized it was because the post office misrouted the package, and this was not the fault of the seller, who mailed the package in a timely manner.

I love Frasier

I didn't watch Frasier when it was new but have really enjoyed the reruns. I hope to collect the entire series
