Product Description:
For Tony Soprano, there’s no such thing as business as usual. Balancing the demands of his immediate family - wife Carmel, daughter Meadow and son Anthony Jr. - witht the demands of his other family - Paulie Walnuts, Silvio Dante and Big Pussy Bompensiero - means walking a tightrope no self-respecting mobster should have to walk. With his mother and uncle plotting against him, his older sister Janice wreaking her own special kind of havoc, and the very real threat that one of his closest allies is wired by the F.B.I, Tony needs the support of his psychiatrist Dr. Melfi more than ever.
Running Time: 696 min.

In its second season, The Sopranos sustains the edgy intelligence and unpredictable, genre-warping narrative momentum that made this modern mob saga the most critically acclaimed series of the late 1990s. Creator-producer David Chase repeatedly defies formula to let the narrative turn as a direct consequence of the characters’ behavior, letting everyone in this rogue’s gallery of Mafiosi, friends, and family evolve and deepen.
That gamble is most apparent in the rupture of the relationship that formed the spine of the first season, the tangled ties between capo Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) and monstrous matriarch Livia (Nancy Marchand), whose betrayal makes Tony’s estrangement a logical response. Filling that vacuum, however, is prodigal sister Janice (Aida Turturro), whose New Age flakiness never successfully conceals her underlying calculation and opportunism. Soprano’s relationship with therapist Jennifer Melfi (Lorraine Bracco) also frays during early episodes, as she struggles with escalating doubts about her mobbed-up patient. At home, Tony contends with wife Carmela’s ruthless ambitions on behalf of college-bound Meadow, as well as son Anthony Jr.’s sullen adolescent flirtation with existentialism–the sort of touch that the show handles with a smart mix of sympathy and amusement.
Without spoiling the surprise of the season’s climactic last episode, it’s worth noting that only on The Sopranos could we expect a scene that sets up a mob hit with a perversely funny touch of magic realism–a talking fish, lying on a fishmonger’s iced display, speaking with the voice of the victim. It’s a touch at once morbid and goofy, and consistent with the show’s undimmed brilliance. –Sam Sutherland

I bought the 2nd season for my dad who lives in Europe. I sent him season one last year and he was hooked. I myself really enjoyed the series and was sorry to see it end.

- The DVD Value…You Already Know the Show is Great
Each season of The Sopranos has many fine merits, and the second season is one of the best. It has the break-the-mold elements that separated it from other television fare with the betrayal by Pussy and the unexpected hit on Christopher. It has one of the darkest characters ever on television in Richie Aprile and one of the best narcissistic psychos in Janice Soprano. It also features some of the best Sopranos comedy in From Where to Eternity (when Christopher tells Tony and Paulie Walnuts that … Read More
