Amazon.co.uk Review
At the start of Series Two of the Boston law firm drama, nothing much had changed at Richard Fish's rather kooky establishment. Ally (Calista Flockhart) was still a skinny, whimsical woman-child looking for Mr Right. Billy (Gil Bellows) was still married to Georgia (Courtney Thorne-Smith), John Cage (Peter McNicol) was still too eccentric to be considered for romantic involvement, Elaine (Jane Krakowski) was still a nosey meddler and Fish (Greg Germann) himself was still looking for ways to make money. Lots of it. Greed prompts him to hire new litigator Nelle (Portia DiRossi), a tall, blonde power-dresser who leaves the other women bristling in her wake. But their antipathy towards their new colleague is nothing compared to the forces of hatred spiky Ling (Lucy Liu) inspires. Before long John (The Biscuit) and Nelle are embarking on a tempestuous romance, Ally is stealing Elaine's new boyfriend before going out with one of Georgia's exes and Billy begins to show the signs of instability which lead to him to bleach his hair blonde in the following season. Ally's outspoken flatmate Renee (Lisa Nicole Carson) got a welcome increase in her time on screen in this second season. Despite the sheer number of episodes David E Kelley and his team turn around each year, this second series consistently provided entertaining viewing to the last, despite--or perhaps because of--some of the characters being so unlikable. The inter-office banter reached new heights of inventive bitchiness, the comic CGI illustrations of Ally's imagination still felt reasonably fresh and the court cases managed to combine oddity with emotional involvement. All in all this group of dysfunctional and rather incestuous workaholics proved curiously engaging yet again. --Emma Perry

5.0 out of 5 stars The start of Ally's best ever year!!, 21 Sep 2002

By	"funk_deluxe78" - See all my reviews

Season 2 of Ally McBeal is by far the best. Scripts with an edge and actors to match this season gives us nelle (portia de rossi) and ling (lucy liu) two fantastic characters. Storylines involve ling being wonderfully nasty, nelle being the ice queen and the introduction of stefan (just watch and see that bit). The whole thing reeks of class with a fresh feeling that later seasons lacked a little. Calista Flockhart is brilliant with good comic timing and dramatic. Peter MacNicol is brilliant as john and if you didn't like ally you could watch the show for him All in all this boxset is fantastic value and truly essential (along with part 2 of course.) the series looks great on dvd too so it really is a must buy

5.0 out of 5 stars More cracking comedy from the strangest law firm on TV, 13 April 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Ally McBeal - Season 2 Part One [VHS] [1998] (VHS Tape)

This series carries on from the excellent first by introducing the beautiful characters Nelle and Ling. They bring new hilarious new story lines, both girls get involved with the senior partenrs of Ally's firm, Richard and John. Though, being Ally McBeal, neither relationship is what you could call normal.
The episodes are hilarious with, both funny and moving story lines, from the death of a judge to antics of Stefan the frog.
A must for all fans of the hit tv show. Watching it makes you want to see more.
