Amazon.com:
Christopher Eccleston's tenure as the time-traveling title hero in the venerable UK sci-fi series Doctor Who lasted just 13 episodes, but he left enough of a impression on fans to make some wonder how his replacement, veteran television performer David Tennant, might fare in the role. As this second-series boxed set proves, the answer is: he's a near-perfect Doctor who combines the eccentricities of earlier incarnations (most notably Tom Baker) with a fresh and youthful interpretation of his own, and even brings a healthy dash of romantic chemistry with his sidekick, Rose Tyler (the equally charming Billie Piper). And their adventures retain the solid blend of thoughtful speculative fiction, pulp action, and quirky humor that typified the series at its best. Among the 15 terrific stories contained in the six-disc set are the "Children in Need" (a.k.a. "Pudsey Cutaway") mini-episode from the 2005 Children in Need telethon that showed Eccleston's transformation into Tennant; "School Reunion," in which Elisabeth Sladen returns as Sarah Jane Smith; "The Girl in the Fireplace," which draws together robots in 18th century France with a derelict space station in the distant future; and the season finale, "Army of Ghosts/Doomsday," which not only revives the series' most popular villains, the robotic Daleks, in a head-to-head struggle against the Cybermen, but also marks the final appearance of another series regular. For fans and first-time visitors to the TARDIS alike, the Second Series is simply thrilling sci-fi TV.

As with the First Series set, the supplemental features are plentiful here; commentary by the show's cast and crew is provided on each episode, and four feature picture-in-picture commentary tracks; deleted scenes and outtakes are also included, as are video diaries by Tennant and Piper, and a lengthy featurette, "Doctor Who Confidential," which covers nearly every aspect of the series' production, including the introduction of the Torchwood Institute and the return of Sarah Jane, both of which would be featured in their own respective spin-off series (the first in Doctor Who's long history) in 2007. - Paul Gaita




Rating: - Great Gift
I ordered this a a Christmas gift for my brother. He was so thrilled when he opened it and saw what it was. It arrived quite quick, and was a definite hit. I ordered Season 2 as a birthday gift since he was so thrilled with Season 1.

I have enjoyed all of the Doctor Who series. For those like myself who don't get this series on T.V., this is just great, also no commercials or waiting for the next episode. This is just super to have them on DVD. I do like this Dr. Who and will miss him when he leaves the series. Also Billie Piper does a great job playing Rose. I think she adds zest to the show.

Rating: - Great DVD box set!
A must have for any Dr. Who or sci-fi fan! and they are about half the price of what they are charging at the big chain stores. still kinda expensive but well worth it.

Rating: - Definitely worth the money
Series 2 of DW is my favorite of the "New Who". I caught an episode from this season on BBC America back in March and instantly feel in love with the show. David Tennant is beyond brilliant, and Billie Piper is a great companion for the Doctor. There are some definite misses in my opinion, like Love and Monsters, but that doesn't take away from this wonderful series at all. Doomsday broke my heart.

Rating: - Doctor Who, Complete Second Series
Fantastic! The adjustment time from the first series Doctor was a bit long for me but the stories are simply great in this second series. The last episode was truly awesome! When I told my kids about Doctor Who, they gave me the "raspberrys". But, when we all were watching the next to the last TV episode which ended with "to be continued", they all let out a gasp of dispair!!!!! So much for their "raspberrys"!! Dad was right about this being a great series!
