Amazon.com:
The second and last season of Dark Angel, the inventive James Cameron show about mutants during a future Depression, has some real strengths as well as one or two bad ideas that partly explain its much-regretted cancellation. Among the strengths are Alex (Jensen Ackles), the thoroughly unreliable mutant charmer whose flirtations with heroine Max (Jessica Alba) complicate her doomed love for Logan (Michael Weatherly), the crippled newshound whom she cannot now even touch--she has been infected with a deadly virus tailored specifically to kill him. The distrust this sows between the doomed couple does not always avoid soap-opera clichés, but often produces fine performances from all three, especially Alba.
On the deficit side, John Savage's memorably ambiguous villain Lydeker from season 1 (who is alternately the mutants' nemesis and their protector) disappears to be replaced by the melodramatically sinister Agent White (Martin Cummins). White appears to be just a shoot-to-kill operative of the state and turns out to be another sort of superhuman, a product of an occultist breeding program going back to the dawn of history. After White's first ruthless killing, Max's reluctance to use deadly force is tested to near-implausible limits. The show ends with a rousing and moving finale, 'Freak Nation', in which a theme often neglected in this final year--Max's relationship with her fellow couriers at Jam Pony--reaches a powerful climax. --Roz Kaveney

Rating:  - Dark Angel Season 2
The video was in excellent condition and arrived earlier than the expected day. I personally loved Dark Angel and wish there had been a season three.
Rating:  - Loved the series - my comments are about which set to purchase
Amazon has the complete first season DVDs listed twice, once for $28 and once for $36, and the only difference between the two items seems to be the picture on the front. The second season is also listed twice, for $28 or $40.
However, the complete series is listed for $45. I just received my order, and it really does contain each set of season disks. I recommend getting "Dark Angel - The Complete Series" unless, for whatever reason, you're interested in only one season.
Rating: - One hot series.
This is one of my favorite shows and I haven't found any show since that I have been so pleased with. Though you don't have to purchase season one to understand what is going on in season two I would highly recommend that you do. You will get your money's worth and I am sure you will love it as much as I do. If you think its just a girl show you are very wrong because every male I have talked about it with says they loved it too. Several have bought the sets like I have. I am now purchasing the ...

Rating: - Dark Angel rides again
I enjoyed the second season as much as the first. It gets more into Sci-
Fi in the second season. This leaves it wide open for a movie. Who knows.
Rating:  - DA Season 2
I think is good but I is nothing compared to the first season. It too sci-fi for me.
