 Avoids sophomore slump.., 2006-05-25
Even more remarkable than "Friend's" first dream season was the fact that it managed to avoid a sophomore slump. With so much attention directed at it, people expected "Friends" to crack under the pressure. However, both the writers and the cast managed to keep the show fresh and funny in its sophomore season. Major storylines included the tortured Ross/Rachel love affair, Joey getting an apartment without Chandler, Monica falling in love with her parent's friend, Richard, and Phoebe beginning her search for her family. Some of the best episodes from this season include "TOW Ross's New Girlfriend," "TOW Heckles Dies," "TOW Five Steaks and an Eggplant," "TOW Ross Finds Out," "TOW the List," "TOW Phoebe's Dad," "TOW the Lesbian Wedding," "TOW the Prom Video," "TOW Ross and Rachel..You Know," and "TOW the Two Parties." Ross and Rachel ultimately drive this season and the chemistry between Schwimmer and Aniston is amazing and will carry throughout the rest of the series. Aniston is especially funny here and viewers can see her beginning to grow as an actress and comedian. Aniston really brings a vulnerability to Rachel and even when shes conniving to get Ross away from Julie, viewers still root for her. She steals the show in "TOW Ross's New girlfriend" ("Ins't that kick you in the crotch, spit on your neck fantasic?") and "TOW Ross Finds Out" ("And THAT my friend is what they call closure.."). Season Two is one of the best seasons of this long running sitcom and will provide many laughs for years to come.

 Friends: Season Two - Friends still goes strong for it's Second Year (1995-1996), 2006-04-26
The second season of Friends is still not one of my all time favourite seasons. Yeah sure it has a lot of its memorable episodes, but at the same time it really didn't have that kind of bang when the first season arrived. Nevertheless I give this season set 3.5 Stars (it has to be 4).
One thing I didn't enjoy about this season was the character Eddie, he stayed on the show for about 3 Episodes but it really just dragged. I didnt like the episodes where Joey and Chandler were seperated basically because of this Eddie guy. Anyway, he left and the show got back to normal.
During this 1995-1996 season a huge Friends Backlash occured. Suddenly everybody got sick of them and hate websites were being made. This backlash I think kind of hurt the show in its Second Season.
However, there are some good episodes, my Personal Top 5 Epsiodes Are:
The One With Five Steaks and An Eggplant
The One With The Baby On The Bus
The One With The List
The One With The Prom Video
The One With The Chicken Pox (Lol this has to be my favourite of Season 2, as I recently had chicken pox and can relate lol :P)
Overall If you can only buy a few Friends Seasons I don't think its vital to purchase Season Two, definitley not the best out of the ten. However if you've got the money, got the time, or get it for free somehow...its not tooooooo bad.
Vintage Friends, 2006-02-25
At the outset, I must confess that I am a big Friends fan. I was in the market for one season, and I chose season two after reading the reviews here. I was not disappointed. We love this collection!
The BEST season, 2006-02-13
Season one was great, but this season was even better.
The building tension between Ross and Rachel until "The One With The Prom Video". Then soon after the main focus becomes the risk of Joey and Chandler losing their friendship when Joey moves out for a better place.
This season started with Rachel being extremely jelous of Julie (Ross' new girlfriend), then them dating for one day until Rachel finds a list of pros and cons about her and Julie.
Then Ross desperately trying to get Rachel back until she views an old home video of Ross planning to ask Rachel to the prom, she is flattered by the video, and they get together.
Joey and Chandler were at a height in this season, with the ups and downs of their friendship, and Joey's period of stardom as Dr. Drake Ramoray of Days of Our Lives.
With those two things aside, there were also many short side plots in this season, Carol and Susan's wedding, Phoebe's gay husband, money, breast milk, wierd roommates, job searches, babys left on bus's, and Monkey's in movies.
Here comes the list of episodes in the order that I like them.
The One Where Eddie Won't Go
The One Where Ross Finds Out
The One With The Chicken Pox
The One After The Superbowl
The One With The Bullies
The One Where Ross and Rachel...You Know
The One Where Dr. Ramoray Dies
The One With The Prom Video
The One Where Joey Moves Out
The One Where Eddie Moves In
The One Where Heckles Dies
The One With The Baby On A Bus
The One With Five Steaks and an Eggplant
The One Where Old Yeller Dies
The One With The Breast Milk
The One With Barry and Mindy's Wedding
The One With Russ
The One With The Lesbian Wedding
The One With Ross' New Girlfriend
The One With The List
The One With Phoebe's Husband
The One With Phoebe's Dad

This DVD set is kick you in the crotch, spit on your neck FANTASTIC!, 2006-01-29
I have watched this season so many times I have literally memorized every plot..every guest star..practically every line! All the episodes are hilarious but these are my favorites: TOW Ross' New Girlfriend, TOW Ross Finds Out, TOW the List, TOW the Prom Video, TOW Ross and Rachel...You Know, and TOW Joey Moves Out. The second season of Friends started the monumental relationship of Rachel and Ross which goes on and off more than a lightswitch throughout the entire series. Also Tom Selleck who plays Monica's much older boyfriend, Richard is a spectacular guest star. The second season starts with Ross returning from China, new girlfriend, Julie attatched snugly to his shoulder, and ends with Ross and Rachel together, Monica and Richard in a tragic breakup due to his reluctancy to have children. Many plot twists and turns make for an interesting season that I have enjoyed for a very long time and I'm sure I still will!
