Even better action and adventure than season one. Worth buying!Movie Review: A definite upgrade to Season 1
Summary: 4 Stars
This 1984-85 Season of AIRWOLF DVD is awesome along with the fact that AIRWOLFs 2nd Season is even better than the 1st Season, since the 1984-85 Season of this show is more upgraded, more sophisticated and has more action than the First Season does along with the fact that AIRWOLF's 1st Season wasn't a full season, since this Superchopper series didn't premiere on CBS until the Winter of 1984 which was a year prior to the series premiere of STREET HAWK with Rex Smith(Jesse Mach)in the Winter of 1985 which stole both AIRWOLF & KNIGHT RIDERs thunder.
In addition to that, the Second Season is when Caitlin O'Shaunessy(Jean-Bruce Scott)joins the cast as Hawke(Jan-Michael Vincent) and Dom's(Ernest Borgnine) fellow pilot, which made the episodes of Airwolf more interesting and enjoyable than the First Season along with AIRWOLF showing off more features too.
Therefore, I think this is the second best season of AIRWOLF that made its debut in January of 1984, but the Third Season is even better than the first 2 seasons throughout AIRWOLFs whole 2 1/2-year run on CBS, despite the fact that this show didn't last very long.
It was also interesting seeing guest stars like
-James Whitmore, Jr. in the "Sweet Britches" episode before his co-starring days as Hunter & McCall's clutzy fellow officer (Sgt. Bernie Terwilliger)on the police drama HUNTER
-Jared Martin in the "Santinis Millions" episode during his co-starring days on DALLAS
-Mills Watson in the "Eruption" episode after his co-starring days as the doofus Deputy Perkins on SHERIFF LOBO
-Lance LeGault playing a crooked Sheriff in the "Sweet Britches" episode during his co-starring days as the overzealous Army nemesis(Col. Decker) on THE A-TEAM & his co-starring days as Magnum's cynical Navy nemesis(Col.Green)on MAGNUM, P.I.
-Jennifer Aniston's father(John Aniston) in the "Short Walk To Freedom" episode before his co-starring days on DAYS OF OUR LIVES
-Anne Lockhart in the "Random Target" episode after her co-starring days as Sheba BATTLESTAR GALACTICA
-Nick Campbell in the episodes "Prisoners Of Yesterday" and "The Inn At The End Of The Road" after his earlier co-starring days as THE HITCHHIKER, which was of course before Nick Campbell was replaced by Page Fletcher.
-Jeffrey McKay during his co-starring days as Magnum's doofus Navy buddy(Mac Reynolds)
I also couldn't help finding it intriguing how Jared Martin and Joseph Ruskin not only both guest starred in the "Santini's Millions" episode of AIRWOLF, but they coincidentally also happened to both guest star in the "Knight Of The Drones" episode of KNIGHT RIDER that same season.
This 1984-1985 Season also takes me all the way back to memory lane to when AIRWOLF was on CBS every Saturday night and when KNIGHT RIDER was NBC every Sunday night, since AIRWOLF was a Superchopper series that was in hefty competition with the Supercar series KNIGHT RIDER & the Supercycle series STREET HAWK when STREET HAWK made its debut on ABC on Friday January 4th, 1985 & AIRWOLF made its debut on CBS on Sunday January 22nd, 1984.
As a matter of fact STREET HAWK was one of the most popular short-lived classic TV shows that AIRWOLF & KNIGHT RIDER couldn't even touch that had K.O.'d both AIRWOLF & KNIGHT RIDER in the Nielsen ratings since STREET HAWK was the most upgraded ultimate in high-tech transportation since the debut of KNIGHT RIDER on NBC back in the Fall of 1982 on Sunday September 26th, 1982 despite the fact that KNIGHT RIDER lasted longer than AIRWOLF & STREET HAWK both did along with the fact that KNIGHT RIDER lasted longer than STREET HAWK & AIRWOLF too.
Therefore, we used to be able to watch Super-Autos every weekend back in the Winter of 1985 since STREET HAWK was on ABC every Friday night at 9PM, AIRWOLF was on CBS every Saturday night at 9PM, and KNIGHT RIDER was on NBC every Sunday night at 8PM which all coincidentally just happened to be Universal owned TV shows that were all filmed at Universal Studios in Hollywood on top of that even though KNIGHT RIDER, AIRWOLF, & STREET HAWK were all in competition with one another & despite the fact that STREET HAWK had stole a lot of viewers away from AIRWOLF & KNIGHT RIDER, but then STREET HAWK hit a speed-bump after only its 9th week since it didn't get the ratings ABC wanted which was probably due to the fact that STREET HAWK was too closely related to KNIGHT RIDER & AIRWOLF since it gave viewers too much of the same thing every week & premiered too soon after AIRWOLF & KNIGHT RIDER did which also led to declining ratings on KNIGHT RIDER & AIRWOLF in the Summer of 1986.
Overall, out of all 3 of those high-tech classic TV series, STREET HAWK got the best ratings, KNIGHT RIDER had the 2nd best ratings, and AIRWOLF got the lowest ratings even though AIRWOLF was the 2nd most upgraded of the 3, followed by KNIGHT RIDER as the least upgraded of the 3, leaving AIRWOLF & KNIGHT RIDER behind STREET HAWK as the most upgraded of those 3 TV series back in the Winter of 1985 before STREET HAWKs cancellation in the Spring of 1985.
This season also reminds me of the days when CBS's motto was "CBS:We've Got The Touch", since that was their slogan on CBS from September of 1983 thru August of 1986.
The only problem I have with this AIRWOLF-SEASON 2 DVD is for some reason it freezes and skips on the "Santinis Millions" episode and the episodes didn't come with a brief summary of each episode displaying their original air-dates unlike the AIRWOLF-SEASON 1 DVD.
By the way, I just got word that the Shout Factory will be releasing STREET HAWK out on DVD on Tuesday July 13th, 2010 which should give all you high-tech TV program viewers something else to look forward to.
Movie Review: Second Season review
Summary: 4 Stars
Second Season was much lighter than first season and did not have the same moral content. I loved 1st season and Jan Michael!!
In 2nd season, Airwolf was used for some local problems....which I found rather unbelievable. Also, in some episodes Jan Michael looked VERY thin and his acting was not as good as the first season. I quess his alcohol problem was taking over at this point !!! Even so, the episodes were enjoyable.
My 2nd season DVD from Amazon was missing 6 episodes. They were on the jacket but not on the menu. They offered to refund my money but I liked the episodes that I received... so I just kept the DVD.
Movie Review: The Three A's --Action, Adventure and (Good ) Acting
Summary: 4 Stars
Airwolf may have seemed like a show about a miltary helicopter who could do anything. Piloted by Stringfellow Hawke (Jan Micheal Vincent-in his finest acting hours) and Dominic Santini (Ernest Borgnine), this helicopter saga had a human touch.
This second season Airwolf came into its own. The first season defined the character and the copter. The second season had great character storylines, which was less on hardware and more of emotional software
These 22 episodes were intelligent well done TV..I can wait for season three which comes out soon
