Growing Pains - The Complete Second Season DVD Review - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

"Show me that smile again!" The Seavers are back on DVD (after a five year hiatus from the release of the first season DVD) with Growing Pains - The Complete Second Season, a three disc set containing every episode from the second season of the classic 80s series. Alan Thicke and Joanna Kerns star as Jason and Maggie Seaver, parents going through "growing pains" and transitions as Jason moves his psychiatric practice to his home (to double up as a "househusband") while Maggie leaves home to work as a journalist. Mike (Kirk Cameron) is the oldest son who is always causing trouble, Carol (Tracey Gold) is the brainy middle child who has a tendency to cause trouble on her own, and little Ben (Jeremy Miller)... well... he's just Ben.

The second season of the series continues from the first season without any major changes. As fans of the series are well aware, there were many changes over the seasons, some of which were positive and others not-so-positive, but the second season is just classic Growing Pains, with dad at home, mom at work, and three kids creating a whole heap of trouble.

So after a five year wait we get a season two set with poor video quality and no extra's?!? Not good enough Warner Brothers!
