Favorite Quote:
"Hear the birds? Sometimes I like to pretend that I'm deaf and I try to imagine what it's like not to be able to hear them. It's not that bad." -Larry David, Curb Your Enthusiasm
could strike twice, rest assured that it hits here harder than ever. While the pace is slower and the situations slightly more implausible, you can’t help but be swept up by the expertly crafted product. By the end, you’ll be crying for more worse than a broke crackhead cries for a fix. It’s dangerously addictive stuff, and I for one can’t wait until I get my next hit.

Show Score: A

The DVD comes packed with two alternate endings and close to a hundred deleted scenes, not to mention countless commentaries. Fox definitely learned from their mistakes on Season One by also adding desperately needed chapter markers in each episode, as well as sprucing up the A/V quality of the actual episodes. The deleted scenes are a bit excessive, but too much is certainly preferable to too little. Superb job.

DVD Score: A

If you’re an action or a suspense fan, you owe it to yourself to pick up one of the smartest shows on television. If you’re looking for a fun way to kill those pre-Fall season blues, you can’t go wrong with “24: Season Two”. Even fans of the show should be tempted to buy it, given the ridiculous amount of extras and the high replay value of the actual show. “24” may be a fantastic television show, but as the past two releases have shown, its true place is at home on DVD.

Final Score: A
