RHINO GOT IT RIGHT THIS TIME!!!!!
Needless to say I was very happy that Rhino released season 2 in it's original format! The packaging was excellent and I especially enjoyed the Cosmic Cow icon that pops up on the episode selection list. It was also nice to be able to immediately skip the show's opening(after a few episodes it gets redundant) and go straight to scene selection!
Eventhough Too Close for Comfort was not one of the funniest sitcoms of the 80's, I bought it because I had'nt seen it in years and I actually enjoyed seeing Ted Knight playing the funny overprotective Dad. My only complaint is I wish Rhino would re-release season one with unedited episodes and I'm thankful for the reviewers on Amazon who let people know about the syndicated version before deciding to purchase it!
Thank Goodness It's An Uncut Set
There's no doubt about "Too Close For Comfort: Season 2": it is wonderful. The fact that all 22 episodes are uncut is honest and fortright. The audio commentaries on 2 episodes from Nancy Dussault (Muriel) and Jim J. Bullock (Monroe) and 2 other episodes from Lydia Cornell (Sara) and Deborah Van Valkenburgh (Jackie) are refreshing; sharing with us their experiences with the show and working with their late star, Ted Knight, who died on August 26, 1986.
The "Too Close For Comfort" reunion featurette was a hoot and a pleasure surprise. The first season set was alright but not great. Season 2 was far better and when the show was truly funny. If Season 3 follows the path of Season 2, people will buy. I know I would.
Much Better!
Well, I think everyone was a little upset by Rhino's first season release of Too Close for Comfort. It was the cut up, syndicated episodes with no special features, but not this time. I am surprised Amazon doesn't mention it, but there are several commentaries on episodes from the second season. Nancy Dussault and Jim J. Bullock team up to do several commentaries as do Lydia Cornell and Deborah Van Valkenburgh. If you are a fan of the show and was a little put out about the first season as I was, I think you will like season two a lot better.
