Like season one, season two has a lot of twists and turns, and things get revealed in small bits throughout the season. Also, like the first season, this one is short, just ten episodes. The Lazlo storyline from season one is mostly resolved, but Joshua Sasse who plays Jimmy's son, Alec Laszlo does make a couple of appearances during the season. Because this is a serial arc, all of the episodes build on each other and you really have to watch from the first episode all the way through. There is some violence, sex, and nudity as there was in the first season, but I think all of them are tamed down a bit.
For those who get the DVD set, there are a handful of making-of and behind-the-scenes featurettes. They cover things like the season two cast, set tours, and the like. Nothing extensive, but they are there for those who like watching them.
Overall, the season is very good. I like that it moved on from the first season's storylines (for the most part). We still get some of Grace's home life and see how the events of the first season have further affected that. The season ends on a big cliffhanger going into season three that will definitely have another storyline shift for the show going into season three. So, if you like more adult crime dramas (this is definitely not family-friendly) this is a good one to check out. You do not need to watch the first season to understand everything that is going on this season, but it does help to get Grace's backstory.
