I first saw Hill Street Blues on TV about a 2 years ago and Ive been hooked ever since. It is superbly written with some fantastic & thaught provoking storylines. The acting is absolutely brilliant with every character having some likeable aspect whilst being very true to life. There where over 100 episodes made during the programms run from 1981 to 1987 and every single one is a masterpiece. An absolute must watch if you have never seen it.
Although HSB continued to be groundbreaking in its production, this second series does lack the excitement of the first. This may be down to a strike by the writers pushing the deadline forward, leading to a hasty production which left some writers exhausted. It appears that they rely heavily on car chases and action sequences to fill the scripts more than a great storyline. The second disappointment with this particular DVD set is that there are no extras. There had been some on the first series boxed set, and seven extras on the Region 1 issue, but there is nothing on this. HSB definately deserves a better release than this over here, even just for it's fans. Therefore this set is recommended to fans and completists only, otherwise, buy the first boxed set it's better.
