Other dramatic developments: LaRue (Keil Martin) falls off the wagon and endangers his partner, Washington (Taurean Blacque), during a drug bust ("Zen and the Art of Law Enforcement"); Goldblume (Joe Spano) gets personally involved in the case of an abusive slumlord ("Of Mouse and Man," featuring future Miami Vice star Edward James Olmos as a threatened tenant); Esterhaus (Michael Conrad) is still bedeviled by sexual siren Grace Gardner (Barbara Babcock); and Precinct Capt. Frank Furillo (Daniel J. Travanti, who earned his second Emmy for Best Actor) and Joyce bring their clandestine affair out into the open. Other ongoing storylines involve realistic depictions of police corruption and inter-partner race relations. Hill Street's second season fulfilled the promise of its auspicious first, and repeated as TV's Outstanding Drama Series at the Emmy Awards. No roll call of classic, trendsetting TV series would be complete without it. --Donald Liebenson

Customer Reviews of Hill Street Blues - Season 2
Keeps Getting Better Season 2 of Hill Street Blues out, and what a great season it is! The characters continue to grow and evolve, the storylines get more intense (they may seem a bit over the top with age, but I still love them). My only three gripes: <
>1. No meaty bonus material. <
>2. I really HATE the double sided disk format. <
>3. Season 3 is not out yet. <
> <
>Pick these up, with all due haste. And hey! Let's be careful out there.
Worth the wait of 20 years
I have been waiting to see this show again for nearly twenty years and after whetting my appetite with Season One, it has been a long four months waiting for Season Two. I am thrilled that it is finally here -- with even more extras than Season One. It also looks like the production quality of the DVD is a little better on this season. In any case, if you haven't watched season one, buy the combo and be prepared to become addicted. There hasn't been anything on tv to match, much less surpass, Hill Street in 20+ years. If you like superior writing and engrossing drama and comedy, watch this DVD, and you will no longer wonder why HSB has such die hard fans. In fact, you are sure to become one! An easy 5 stars.
Finally!
I waited for a long time to see HSB on DVD. Meanwhile, every other series from the past (and present) was being released. The wait was worth it; it was a joy to see these episodes again after so many years. The set and the acting hold up well. The issues are timeless and you can identify with all the characters. LaRue is a jerk, but a loveable one, and you really want to see him get over his addiction. I always liked Furillo's 'grace under pressure' performances. He rarely raised his voice; sometimes he didn't even reply at all. But when he did, it was with authority.
