Editorial Review:
Enter the fascinating world of the Walkers, and explore what is means to be an American family in the 21st century. Though they live very different and conflicting lives, the Walkers find unity under the family roof. Relationships bend but never break as they strive to find their own identities and embrace each other s differences. This is a series to watch, raves the San Francisco Chronicle. Welcome home a family you can root for in one of televisions most captivating and insightful dramas. Calista Flockhart, Sally Field, Rachel Griffiths and Ron Rifkin lead a stellar cast in ABC s critically-acclaimed hit Brothers & Sisters.
Description of Brothers and Sisters - The Complete Second Season:
The second season of Brothers and Sisters saw the terrific top-notch cast hit their stride. The chemistry between Calista Flockhart's Kitty and the Republican senator she works for, played by Rob Lowe, is palpable, and their engagement this season makes for a charming thread entwining the tales of the rest of the Walker family. And what a year they're having. Sarah (Rachel Griffiths) has lost custody of her kids, but is now running Ojai Foods, and trying to navigate through the family issues that accompany the family business. Uncle Saul (Ron Rifkin) might be gay. Iraq vet Justin might be falling off the wagon. Affairs are lurking around every corner, tempting just about every Walker at one time or another. The sun around whom all the Walker planets spin, however, is still Nora (Sally Field), whose good humor and big heart go a long way toward giving the clan the glue it needs. When Justin apologizes for his snappish behavior at the family meeting the previous night addressing his drug use, Nora says, "No one expects you to be warm and fuzzy at your own intervention, dear."
This season, Nora gets some affairs of the heart herself, with a charming guest appearance by Chevy Chase as Nora's college draft-dodging beau, back in the states as a teacher but still exactly on Nora's not-quite-reformed hippie wavelength. But tension awaits in the form of Isaac (Danny Glover), Nora's political opposite, but absolutely her equal mentally and emotionally. It's satisfying to see a woman older than 35 have a real love life, with real sparks--and real consequences. --A.T. Hurley

Brothers and Sisters - The Complete Second Season Reviews:
Brothers/Sisters 
2009-12-16 - The Brothers and Sister Complete season one and two are wonderful. Contains a little "something" for everyone and best of all features Sally Fields..one of my all-time favorite actresses.I plan to own every season recorded.
Addicting 
2009-11-05 - This a wonderfully addicting series. On so many levels I can relate and understand what each personality is going thru. The show has been a well needed break for myself and fellow co-workers overseas.
Everything....and MORE! 
2009-11-04 - In my opinion this is one of the best written TV shows about a family in a long time. Each and every episode will make you both laugh & cry. Granted the Walker family has money, but the issues they face are issues we all face, they are real people dealing with real issues. You can relate to this family, you share their happiness & feel their sadness. Sometimes they do the right thing & other times they fall flat on their faces, but no matter what happens the writers & actors make sure you feel it right along with the characters. Each actor plays their role perfectly and have transformed themselves into their character flawlessly, with the natural little quirks & habits we all have. The humor is well done and the drama keeps you coming back for more. The Walkers are a fantastic family and the most believable to come along in a long time.
Wonderful series 
2009-10-01 - This is a wonderful series and I would encourage everyone to order this product. I was a little worried about ordering something used, but the experience turned into one of the best ever! The product arrived before the due date in perfect condition. I will order "used" videos in the future if they're available. Thank you again.
Adult soap opera 
2009-09-24 - I enjoyed the series but there must have been a writers strike because there were only 4 discs with the series, the 5th was out takes.
