Amazon.co.uk Review
Thanks to its focus on more single-case episodes, the second half of CSI's second series is an even more highly concentrated dose of forensic puzzle-solving from the Vegas science sleuths. With the whole team working together on one puzzle crime (or series of crime puzzles), the group dynamic is elaborated and the audience drawn deeper into each investigation. The first three episodes are all single cases: "Identity Crisis" sees the return of Grissom's nemesis, serial killer Paul Millander; in "The Finger", Catherine is caught up in an elaborate kidnap plot; while in "Burden of Proof", a stray body in a "body farm" leads to a difficult case of child abuse. After a brief return to the two-investigation-per-episode format, the team unite once more for one of their most intriguing cases, "Chasing the Bus", in which they must unravel the mystery of a bus crash in the desert. "Stalker" is possibly the show's most terrifying episode to date, with a woman found murdered behind the safely locked doors of her apartment.
The season concludes with "Cross Jurisdictions", a rather unsubtle way of introducing the spin-off show CSI: Miami and, finally, "The Hunger Artist", a somewhat strained attempt to comment on our society's obsession with glamour and self-image, which is most notable for Grissom's devastating discovery that his hearing problems are not only congenital, but irreversible. --Mark Walker

Format:DVD
By far the strongest season thus far, every character is on top form, the relationships are all tight & all equally getting thrown about, the chemistry between the five main cast makes this show.
Awesome work & the second half of season 2 proves just what CSI can do with its talent, the relationships keep getting more tangled, the emotion & interplay is something matched by no other show & still is.
Some great stand alone episodes which make this DVD well worth the buy Icings, Chasing the bus the highly acclaimed & still terrifying Stalker, anatoym of a lie & the season closer.
There was not a foot put wrong in season 2 & its shows. Superb, storylines, excellent cast, great all round characters, great jokes & George Eads came into his own in this season. With by far the best character of the lot, and a character who is somewhat overlooked but well worthy of his place....
Great work & like season 1 these are great to watch time & again the cast are wonderful plus it shows!
Billy, Marg, Gary, George, Jorja, Eric etc have made this show there own & deserve the merit for making this show everything it is to day long may it continue & season 2 really has something special they don't come like this very often. ten out of ten!

The team return for more high rollers and low life of Las Vegas.
The formula is still the same as season 1 and is reassuringly familiar to fans of this quality drama.
Top episodes include "Chasing the Bus" and "Anatomy of a Lye". This collection also includes "Cross-Juristrictions" which introduces it's stablemate in Miami. Also, without giving too much away, a tread running since early in Season 1 is nicely resolved.
If you are a fan of CSI, buy it. Simple as that.

Format:DVD
I bought this dvd to allow me to make the super saver purchase on another product but i am extremly pleased i did. I personally felt that 2:2 discs of season two were much better than the 2:1 discs. I only recently got into csi but now i am a fan. There are some grusome and clever plots involved, But also more diversity as we learn more about Sarah, Catherine and Grissom. I would thoughrly recomend this to any csi fan! Importantly also this box set contains the episode cross-juristictions which sees the csi team travel to miami on chasing a kidnapper - this is the episode which introduces you to the csi miami team!

Strong, solid entertainment
Unlike other acclaimed US drama imports (like The West Wing, Six Feet Under, The Shield or The Sopranos), C.S.I. is not primarily character-driven. Read more
