Description:
Available just a few months after the arrival of Home Movies Season One, Season Two features 13 more episodes of the irreverent animated series seen on Cartoon Network's [adult swim]. Squigglevision is gone, replaced by Flash animation and the characters developed in Season One — an alcoholic soccer coach, a single mother who swears at parent/teacher conferences and an eight-year-old who makes art films and documentaries in his basement with his friends — are in situations even more humorous than before. Great bonus features round out this must-have set!

My mother is actually a big fan of this show and so i bought her the dvds. She loves them and watches em each night before she goes to bed. Good purchase and shipped quickly as well.

This season has so many great episodes with that classic Home Movies style of humor, that anyone who loved the first season would have no reason not to love this one too.
Yes, the animation doesn't "squiggle" anymore but this shouldn't concern anyone thinking about purchasing as it doesn't detract from the show at all.

Home Movies has to be one of the funniest cartoons ever done for American TV. I really miss this show, and I wish it had achieved a larger audience.

This has got to be my favorite season of home movies. For those of you who have never heard of it, Home Movies was an adult oriented cartoon airing occasionally on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim. I know how hard it is to see this show, usually it'd only be on, on Sunday nights at like 12:30am or something. This is why owning these dvd's is SO important. The animation isn't the best, its got a rough around the edges quality, but I think it just makes the show more loveable. The main story line is about a boy named Brandon and his friends who direct and star in their own "home movies". The second season is just as hilarious as the first. I fell in love with this show the first time I saw it (oddly enough a season 2 episode) and I hope you do too.
I know I could have used this when I was purchasing the first season, but if anyone is looking for the particular episode in which the coach inherits a sausage, this is the season!!! =D Priceless, my favorite home movies moment!

I should start by saying that I love this show, and missed it tremendously when Adult Swim moved it to the middle of the night to accommodate their absurd new original programming. In the wake of the Family Guy's DVD success I even wrote Scholastica begging them to release HM on DVD.
I pre-ordered Season 1 from Amazon at the earliest available opportunity and have watched it many times since. ("It is practically joke!") I always harbored some secret, unjustified sense of superiority that I fell in love with this witty, subtle show when everyone else was watching Everybody Loves Raymond. It was as if I "got" something that others didn't, and great was my reward.
But Season 2, I just don't get. Maybe I'm missing something, and maybe my viewings haven't been sufficiently repeated. The animation is admittedly improved, though squigglevision didn't bother me that much in the first Season.
My biggest problem is that the Season 2 episodes are just not as funny, or creative. Am I the only one who feels like most of these storylines just fall flat? Walter & Perry are delightfully absurd, but Paula's boss is just excrutiating. A Woody Allen character, but obnoxious? Who thought this would be funny? The interactions between Brendan and his Dad are nice, and light, but all of the girlfriend scenes are just uncomfortable. If I want uncomfortable, I can watch Fargo. I don't laugh nearly as much during Season 2. That's a problem.
