Description of One Tree Hill: The Complete Second Season:
One Tree Hill: The Complete Second Season finds life in an uproar for virtually every major and minor character in the WB series set in One Tree, North Carolina. Basketball sensation Lucas Scott (Chad Michael Murray), illegitimate son of One Tree Hill's resident J.R.-like figure, car dealer, and all-around monster Dan Scott (Paul Johansson), has left town with his Uncle Keith (Craig Sheffer) to start a new life. (Keith himself has split One Tree to nurse a broken heart after his marriage proposal to Lucas's mom, Karen, played by Moira Kelly, was rejected.) It's not long, however, before Lucas has second thoughts, prompted in part by Dan's recent heart attack and the mess he (Lucas) left behind with two girls, Peyton (Hilarie Burton) and Brooke (Sophia Bush). Meanwhile, Lucas's half-brother, Nathan (James Lafferty), has married the former's lifelong best friend, Haley (Bethany Joy Lenz), a union approved by the bride's parents but not by Nathan's mother, Deb (Barbara Alyn Woods). (It should be mentioned that Nathan and Haley, as with nearly every other young person on this show, are not yet high school seniors. They only look much older.)
All that's just the first couple of episodes of season 2. In the remaining 21, Dan temporarily fools everyone into believing he's a changed man following his cardiac crisis. In fact, he's worse than ever, trying to wreck Nathan and Haley's marriage, attempting to buy Lucas's loyalties, driving Deb into a drug-addicted stupor, pulling the rug out from beneath Keith (who took over Dan's dealership during the latter's illness), and waging a war, of sorts, with basketball coach Whitey (Barry Corbin) for influence over Nathan's destiny. While all this is going on, Haley leaves Nathan to join a music group, Peyton finds success running an all-ages night at a new club opened by Karen, Lucas finds evidence that Dan is cheating the IRS, Brooke's once-wealthy parents go broke, and actress Sheryl Lee (Twin Peaks) turns up toward season's end playing a mysterious visitor with a surprising connection to a major character's past. Whew. If One Tree Hill's first season succeeded in part because series creator Mark Schwahn kept, for a while, a tight focus on the early, rocky relationship between Nathan and Lucas, the second season works as a frenetic, ensemble drama with elements of camp and absurdity. The above-mentioned reference to Dallas villain J.R. Ewing proves apt in more ways than one. The final episode of One Tree Hill's sophomore season ends with its own, not-so-subtle variation on the classic who-shot-J.R. cliffhanger, leaving open to debate which of many possible One Tree candidates might have committed a foul (if understandable) bit of vengeance against a certain bad dude one loves to hate. --Tom Keogh
One Tree Hill: The Complete Second Season Reviews:
Full Disclosure would have been appreciated 
2009-11-08 - I received my product within the period of time I was told I would. My only problem was the box. It was not in good shape at all. The paper was ripped and the plastic part had pieces broken off. At first I thought it might have happened during shipping, but it was hastily taped back to together and not inconspicuously so. This all would have been fine with me, because the discs were in perfect condition, if it had been disclosed at the time of purchase. I suppose we might just have different perceptions of what "very good condition" means. The discs play fine though and that's the most important part.
Awesome 
2009-11-02 - I love this DVD. I was very appreciative when the item arrived when the shipment said it would and on the right date. thank you so much amazon, you have been the most trusting website seller I have ever dealt with and I plan to do more shopping with you in the future. thanks again.

Thrilled with Purchase 
2009-09-09 - Very thrilled with this purchase. Excellent show. Everything with payment and shipping went smoothly & arrived in perfect condition!
One of my CD's didnt work..... 
2009-08-18 - The package arrived quickly, and appeared brand new as stated. I watched all of the discs, but my disc 4 did not work. I can not say that this is the sellers fault because the item did appear to be new, and it could have possibly been a problem with the manufactuer.
