A great show, which the Amazon reviewer should take time to watch. Witty, fast paced, thoroughly entertaining. True the young couple are the least engaging but the show is more hit than miss, like Russell's sex life. It's a winner.

Whether it's Jeff's (Patrick Warburton) snoring that pushes him into the guest bedroom, the "unsexy" sex tape that Adam (Oliver Hudson) and Jennifer (Bianca Kajlich) try to record, Audrey (Megyn Price) protecting her sister from "the perv" Russell (David Spade), or the time-share vacation they all take together, the second season of Rules of Engagement looks at love from all sides of the bed with humor and honesty that'll keep you laughing no matter what shape you or your relationship is in!

Since all the CBS/Paramount releases of TV shows (Cheers, Odd Couple, Happy Days in particular) take all the great music out because of rights, it's refreshing that this release, being a Sony release, has all the music intact. There isn't a whole lot, but there was LESS music in the Season 10 set of Cheers that isn't there. But this show is awesome in its own right. Good cast and good writing.

I loved season one... not for the clean humor, but for the realistic humor. I don't agree with how the couples always treat each other, but much can be learned from both couples. However, the second season is lacking the originality of the first. Though, they are still enjoyable, I'm not as eager to sit down and watch them (and have yet to complete the last few episodes).

The hilarity continues! Two couples - one old (Eddie & Joy Stark), one new (Jeff & Steph Woodcock) - teach each other valuable lessons in love and marriage in this brash comedy. This season, Eddie confronts Joy about annoying habits, Jeff finds it difficult to give Steph the gift she really wants, and Steph decides to watch adult videos with Jeff.
