The Jeffersons - The Complete Second Season

Love the show! Picture clarity and sound great! BUT!!! DVD stops playing on my DVD player at 4th show on disc one. But when I put it in my blue ray it plays with no problem. And this happened on Season 2 and 3! Buyer BEWARE! Don't feel like sending it back! 3 STARs for that reason!

The Jeffersons second season was actually a full season with 24 episodes. The main difference is the new Lionel now played by Damon Evans (no relation to Mike Evans who left the series to work on "Good Times"). In the first episode, the Jeffersons throw an unforgettable birthday party for their neighbor, Mr. Bentley. There are plenty of memorable scenes and guest appearances with the likes of Lou Gossett Jr., Robert Guillaume, Ernest Thomas, Melinda Dillon, and more.Mother Jefferson has a new boyfriend, Jenny's Uncle Bertram. Zara Cully was a scene stealer in her role of Mother Olivia Jefferson. Then there is the episode entitled "Florence's Problem" where the Jeffersons and Willises intervene to save Florence. It's a beautifully done episode and with a few laughs too. Marla Gibbs proved herself in that episode alone of her talented acting skills. There are other memorable episodes like Jenny's grandfathers try to bond over similarities than differences; George gets trapped in his bathroom with the Willises; and Mother Jefferson's birthday.The second season has three discs in it and a guide description of the episodes with cast and company credits. I always enjoyed The Jeffersons and still do to this day. The writing is crisp, witty, and smart. The interaction is realistic and believable. It's nice to see how an ensemble of wonderful actors and actresses worked well together.I only wished the DVD featured extra features about the series like an interview with Norman Lear or the cast members. This series ran for about a decade until the network canceled it without a proper finale episode. Still, it's one of the best series ever with the greatest cast ever and led by genius Norman Lear.

This series just got better and better with each season!!! It's no surprize it lasted so long. The actor's were perfectly cast and the writing was brilliant!!! Need I say Norman Lear was a sheer genius at creating outstanding sitcoms, that featured older actors as it's lead characters. The episodes from this season leave you eagerly wanting more! The packaging was perfect and the quality of the discs were crisp and clear. True Jefferson's fans will not be disappointed! I JUST WISH COLUMBIA TRISTAR WOULD GET BUSY AND START RELEASING SEASONS THREE THROUGH TEN PRONTO!!! There are many more outstanding episodes in season three and others, like when george and louise seek marital advise from Tom and Helen, the trials and tribulations of Jenny and Lionel, and let's not forget the special guest appearance of Billy Dee Williams!!! These episodes are priceless!!! It's would also be nice to see the surviving cast be interviewed and pay special tribute to the late Isabel Sanford. WHAT A GREAT LADY!!! It's hard to believe she was almost 20 years older than Sherman Hemsley when they played husband and wife!!! GEORGE AND WEEZIE FOREVER!!!! AGAIN RELEASE SEASON THREE PRONTO COLUMBIA TRISTAR!!!

The Jeffersons was one of my favorite sitcoms back in the 70's, and still is today. Back then there was a lot more leeway for writers. The N word was used in comedies like The Jeffersons and Sanford & Son. Everyone knew that Sherman Hemsley (George Jefferson), or Carol O'Conner (Archie Bunker, of All In The Family), were not bigots in real life, it was just a part they were playing in a sitcom.George had Weezy and Lionel, to try to talk some sense into him, and Archie had Edith, Mike (Meathead), and Gloria as the rational people in his family. In the case of Sanford and Sons it was Lamont, Fred's son, who was always trying to get his father to be sensible. The combination of ignorance and levelheadedness played off of each other and the results were hilarious.

DVD'S Are in very good condition. thank you!

One of the best seasons of The Jeffersons! I always feel the earlier seasons of any TV Series are the best ones because its pure comedy and gives you more to look forward to. I have the 1st and 2nd season and watch them all the time. Definitely makes the time go by because its 8-9 episodes on each dvd and you just let it play. Love it!

I liked everything about this product!!!

arrived ahead of scheduled delivery date. The DVD's played perfectly. Funny show from my youth.

Best part of growing up in the caribbean was to be able to see sidcoms like these made in the US.Programs a lot of Black british didn't get to see. Had to buy to show friends in UK when they come to visit .

Good

I didn't grow up with this series I'm an 80's series child but looking for something different I decided to purchase and watch it!! It's wonderful and the humor is great!!

Some of the old classic comedy, nothing even comes close to it today. No make believe laugh machine, this is the real thing.To bad the world is so up tight today, one can never do anything like this in today's marked for fear of hurting some poor idiots feelings. The world is just too up tight, today.
