No sooner does Kris settle in than a crisis sweeps through off-screen Charlie's private investigation agency. While cavorting on Oahu in the two-part "Angels in Paradise," Charlie is kidnapped by a smuggler (France Nuyen), who demands the Angels break her husband out of jail in exchange for their boss's life. Bubbly Kris, brainy Sabrina Duncan (Kate Jackson), beauteous Kelly Garrett (Jaclyn Smith), and sidekick Bosley (David Doyle) are compelled to soak up rays and sip fruity mixed drinks in Waikiki while fighting crime in various guises, re-establishing, for another season, Charlie's Angels' dramatic and aesthetic game plan for every episode: start slow with lots of idle chatter, put the girls in a ridiculous undercover situation, and get them out of their clothes as much as possible.
The pattern continues in the silly "Angels on Ice," starring old hands Phil Silvers and Jim Backus, in which our heroines join an ice show to find out who kidnapped a pair of skaters. "Pretty Angels All in a Row" finds Kelly and Kris reluctant entrants in a "Miss Chrysanthemum Pageant" (no, you won't find Kate Jackson in a swimsuit this year, either) rigged by organized crime. "Circus of Terror," co-starring James Darren, enlists the Angels in the carney life. If there is anything to complain about regarding season 2, it is that the novelty of Charlie's Angels has worn a little thin, and every episode feels the same. Still, there are surprises: "The Sammy Davis Jr. Kidnap Caper" stars the late rat-packer in peril and much bemused by the presence of three comely bodyguards. --Tom Keogh

A MUST HAVE,
By Olivier1977 (Paris, France) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Charlie's Angels : Season 2 (DVD)
I am a big Charlie's Angels fans and I couldn't wait for its release on DVD. After a bit of disapointment with the season 1 box set (what a cheap packaging !!) I've been really pleased with this one, which is much, much better(though unfortunatly has no bonus :( I think that interviews of the angels, producer, or the 2000 tb show whould perfectly fit in here). The show just deserved it. The quality of the DVDs are good as is the sound. Though a lot of fans see season one with Farrah as the "real" show, I must admit that season 2 contains some of the funiest episodes (Angels on ice e.g), nad my favorites :. Cherryl Ladd does great as Jill's little sister, Jaclyn Smith is as beautifull as always, while Kate Jackson is defenitly THE STAR OF THE SHOW, the most beautifull and above all the best actress (no wonder she was the on who get nominated for Grammy's!). Some think that Farrah was the star of the show, but Kate was it, Charlie's angels survived her departure, but after Sabrina left the show just became embarassing with Shelley Hack trying to act... So, a wonderfull box set and now I am waiting for season 3.

not as good as season one,
By A Customer
This review is from: Charlie's Angels : Season 2 (DVD)
I'm very glad season 2 came out and hope the following seasons do too but clearly not as great as season one. The shows are alot sillier and just not as interesting. I still believe the first season was the best as the original angels were the best angels and had the better chemistry. And once Kate Jackson left well it really fell apart but still cool to have these shows on dvd.

Love it but where's season three,
By A Customer
This review is from: Charlie's Angels : Season 2 (DVD)
I can't believe season three hasn't come out yet since the last 2 came out about this time or earlier season three should have been available. I'm really disappointed that it hasn't yet does this mean it won't. VERY disappointing if it is we want the full five seasons please???
