BOO!
I never really got around to watching most the second season when it was on tv..I bought the dvd and can see the drastic changes that should have been avoided.Joshua shouldn't have been on that many episodes, he gets annoying! Lydecker vanished after episode 3 and there were too many unrealistic creatures.I will point out the best episodes of this final season:Episode 1: "designate this" 10/10 This helps you figure out the new charecters and how she escapes manticore, again.episode 2: "Bag 'em" 10/10 Manticore is killing the soldiers because they need to destroy evidence, Max must stop them and she runs in to Alec again.Episode 7: 10/10 "some assembly required" Zack comes back, after killing himself last season to give Max his heart..I liked seeing him come back again.Episode 11: 10/10 "The Berrisford Agenda" emotional episode of Alec's past and his first love, good watch.Episode 15 10/10 "FUHGEDDABOUDIT" This is THE MOST unforgettable episode to me because it is so funny! A sweet and unexpecting newbie at Jam Pony is erasing Logan and Max's memory to help her lover, HILARIOUS!Episode 20: 10/10 "Love anong the ruins" and Episode 21: 11/10 "Freak Nation" both conclude the mystery about Max, who made her and all about some of this seasons main charecters...satisfying end to the series.THE DUMB EPISODES WERE: Episode 5: 3/10 "BOO" You mean it was just a dream? and Episode 4 "Radar love" huh? 6/10 they are only filler episodes and are not that interesting..This is a must see TV series that should NOT have been cancelled, but you know how FOX is!The mystery is solved, an unexpected ending and an interesting show that had such a good idea and could have gone on so much longer.. dang you fox!

Good Show!
Just finished watching the second season of "Dark Angel"; purchased both seasons on Amazon. I had never seen it when it aired, so it was nice to view it all without commercials & continuously. I really enjoyed both seasons, but I feel that the first season was better; in the second season they went off on some rather bizaare tangents. Unfortunately they lost, for the most part, the character of Lydecker, who was a multi-dimensional character with many as yet unexplored aspects. He was unfortunately replaced with a comic villain, White. There were times when I wondered how the other actors kept a straight face playing opposite him; this seemed somewhat out of place to the tone of the program in general.While I understand that it is necessary to keep the love interests apart(in true soap opera tradition), I felt that the virus keeping apart Logan & Max was bogus; it seemed too obviously to be a plot device & didn't come from a true place but the worst, in my opinion, was the breeding cult episodes, which recalled every bad cliche about Satan worshippers that you ever saw in any 1970's "Movie of the Week". (Hey, just because they're devil-worshippers doesn't mean they're freaks!) Beyond that this is a great show; very enjoyable & watchable; it's unfortunate that it was cancelled, and I agree with other comments that it would be nice to see how this all came out, maybe in a follow-up movie.

Not as Good as the First Season, but still Pretty Good
I wish there were half star ratings on Amazon. I would have given the second season of Dark Angel a 3 1/2 star rating. Better than average (3 stars) but not a great season. But that is neither here nor there.Dark Angel Season 1 is amazing but Season 2 became the series finale for two reasons. First was a reason beyond their control. Fox moved a successful mid-week show that attracted male viewers (teenage to 39) in high numbers to Fridays night; which is a death blow especially for a show that relies on younger veiwers. The second reason this season failed is that the writing and plot lines got weaker.SPOILERS BELOW:Season 2 starts with Max trapped back in Manticore as they begin to try to reprogram her to be their little super-soldier. She doesn't plan to stay there long. During her efforts to escape, she ends up in the basement where she meets Joshua, the first transgenetic experiement who has an animal face and human body (they say he is suppose to look like a dog but he looks more like a lion to me). All the transgenetic mistakes (or ones that don't look human are locked in the basement). Without giving up too much, Max escapes but she also releases all of the transgentics in Manticore out into the world.In Season 1 had a few on-going story lines - Max wanted to find her brothers and sisters (the 11 other transgenetics that escaped with her the first time), avoiding Liedecker (who turned out to be a layered bad guy), and helping Eyes Only (Logan).None of these themes carry through on Season 2. Max now considers anyone who was made at Manticore her brother or sister so the original group is forgotten about. Liedecker was ousted from the agency and the end of Season 1. He continues to work to discover what is going on and why. But as this story is developing he is run off the road. A body is never found but Liedecker never reappears. And Eyes Only seems to be working for Max rather than her doing missions for him.I could live with these changes. While I was still curious about her orginal brothers and sisters they weren't vital to the show. Liedecker was replaced by Ames White. He hired by the government to round up all transgenics. We also learn that he is a member of a secret group that has been breeding for perfection for generations. Through this breeding they can do everything the transgenics do (super-villians for our super-heroes).They big problems with Season 2 is the writing and some plot lines. The cool idea was that these transgenics walk among us. Now over half the individual story lines focused on transgenics who looked nothing like us. While it only made sense that some existed, they were only in the basement at Manticore while the remaining 3 levels were packed with human looking transgenics. So why is every story based on such a few number? The stories also sometimes were absurd and the writers kept trying to infuse some humor that just came off as silly. The writers also fell into the Star Trek trap - they kept introducing new people gave them a larger role than normally expected to kill them off (in Star Trek going down a planet would be Kirk, Spock, Bones, and ensign"fill in the blank"; who did you think would die). Finally, at what turned out to be the Series finale, the transgenics are claiming a place of their own, but almost every transgenic in the place is again a mutant looking thing.Overall the show was good and I would loved to see where the 3rd season story line took us...but it wasn't great like season 1.

Good show that ended too soon
Purchased used from Goodwill Minnesota. Good condition and the discs had been resurfaced. For $15 I am extremely pleased.Dark Angel was a solid show when it was on and it's unfortunate that it ended after only 2 seasons. That said, I found the Season 1 writing to be better.
