Product Description

Spenser: For Hire's sophomore season ushered in some changes for the gourmet gumshoe: new faces, new challenge, and more mysteries around the streets of Boston, from Fenway backalleys to Beacon Hill townhouses. Foremost among them is Boston's new Assistant DA, Rita Fiori (Carolyn McCormick), looking to rein in the freewheeling private detective, regardless of the chummy relationship that Spenser (Robert Urich) enjoys with Lt. Quirk (Richard Jaeckel). So it's a good thing Spenser still has the extra-legal assistance of Hawk (Avery Brooks) when out on Beantown's bad side. Spenser's thirst for knowledge and yearning for justice see him framed for blackmail, meeting mad mountain men and coming to the aid of modern a Salem witch, all the while staying true to his personal code. Second-season guests include Marg Helgenberger, Samuel L. Jackson, Ed O'Neill, Spalding Gray, Laurence Fishburne and Ruby Dee.

5.0 out of 5 stars The second season of Spenser:for Hire wasn't my favorite..
Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2015

The second season of Spenser: for Hire wasn't my favorite...

Exec producer Juanita Bartlett had sent Barbara Stock's Susan Silverman packing, and Spenser NEEDED Susan as his lady love, as in Robert B Parkers' hugely successful series of novels. One of the three or four best episodes of the series, The Long Hunt, is just about perfect, and as a plus we see the introduction of the temporary replacement hero car after Spensers' prized classic Mustang is destroyed. Listen carefully to the spiel of the 'realist' junkyard guy... it's excellent!

All that said, the prints are excellent, and the presentation is faithful to the original. Bob Urich was always at least as good as his material allowed, and this series allowed him to do his best work ever.

For the Urich fan or the Spenserphile this set is a must! I hope lotsa folks buy this set so that Warners' releases the third season.

5.0 out of 5 stars Season 2 was very memorable.
Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2016

Season 2 of Spenser: For Hire was fantastic! I just can't get enough of season 2! I would have to say my favorite episode was "If you knew Sammy." I like all of the episodes of the second season, but that one stands out the most. In no particular order, other's that stand out are: "One if by land, two if by sea", "An eye for an eye", "Shadowsight" (the "Halloween" episode), "Among friends", "Trial and Error", "One for my daughter" (written by Robert B. & Joan H. Parker, and "The man who wasn't there". By the second season, I felt that the writers and the cast felt really comfortable about the quality and "feel" of the show. Season 2 was a fun season, which also included my favorite assistant director, Alice B.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Second Season of Spenser was great
Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2015

Having already purchased the First Season of Spenser For Hire, I could not wait for Warner Brothers (WB) to realease the Second Season of Spenser For Hire. I have now seen the Seconed Season and it was great,

I now wish to add my voice to my fellow Spenser For Hire fans, and call Amazon to use their market power and ask WB to release Season 3 as soon as possible. For I look forward to purchasing it as soon as it is released. I hope I don't have to wait too long.

I have just been informed that the third and final season for Spenser for hire will be released in September, I will purchase this season as soon as it is available.

5.0 out of 5 stars Robert Urich was the perfect choice to play the character
Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2015

Spenser was a detective show that always kept you on the edge of your seat not knowing what way the story would twist. Robert Urich was the perfect choice to play the character. Years later when they tried to reboot the series with someone else in the role, the series was not as good. I learned about classical writers as Spenser would quote them in his work. As a result, I felt better educated after watching it. I would not recommend the show for kids under 16 years old, because of the adult themes in some of the stories.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great show...sound goes up and down alot
Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2015

I never watched this when it aired on tv, but I tend to like old shows so I tried it and I love it! The only problem isthe way season 2 starts. When Spensers girlfriend is gone and there is no explanation except a couple of throw away lines it does not make sense at all. I went back to see if I missed something but did not find any scene with any actual information. It wouldn't have hurt to have him talking to someone at length about it, make an effort to make up some kind of story or reason beyond moving on or whatever the throw away line was. The only other issue is very common so I wont dock a star but if you watch multiple shows from the same time frame,it is appauling how many tell the exact same story line in episodes. I usually like old shows because they are less predictable, more focussed on story and character than shock value or agendas. There are some episodes that have storylines that match other shows in the same timeframe and that is disappointing but it is expected from tv writers who even back then had difficulty coming up with unique or creative storylines. At least it isnt nearly as bad as now, where almost every show has the same story as another or is "ripped from the headlines" and therefore boring and predictable or trying to jam a point of view down your throat...no thanks. So it has some repetition or predictability but not so often that I am dored or do not want to watch it.

The primary problem I have with both season one and two is the sound quality. I have a fabulous brand new tv with great sound but I have to put it on 56 to be able to hear Spenser and some other characters, meanwhile it makes the car chases and other s8und effects plus a few other characters REALLY LOUD! The result being that I cannot watch it when going to bed or it wakes up the hubby suddenly and loudly or I have to keep rewinding to hear Spenser because it is too low. Old showsare comfortinv and my favorite time towatch is at bedtime becauseit is relaxing...so the sound issue is enough to dock it one star. I will buy all seasons thatget released but for the price the sound quality is a ripoff. I have much older shows with much better sound.

5.0 out of 5 stars pins and needles for third season

When the first season came out I was in heaven. I have some of it on DVD.
I was so so happy when the 2nd season came out. Now when will the 3rd season come out?
Oh please please let it be soon.
I bought the second season month's ago. I thought I wrote a review. I watched the 2nd season the day I got it. Loved it. Now I am on pins and needles waiting for 3rd season when Barbara Stock comes back to be with her beloved Spenser.
I love Robert and Avery together.
They played their roles very well together.

5.0 out of 5 stars Urich is great as Spenser
Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2015
Verified Purchase
The second season DVD doesn't seem to have the sound balance problems I experienced with season 1. And of course if you're looking at buying this you're already a Spenser fan. Urich is great as Spenser, but Avery Brooks' menacing presence is what really makes the show a cut above most others.

One thing that I didn't remember in its first run on TV was the body count; Spenser and/or Hawk end up killing a couple of guys in about every weekly episode -- that would get some attention in the real world!

BTW, it looks like season 3 is now available.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even better than the first season.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 18, 2015

Spenser is a hidden gem. It was I believe only shown once on British TV and then never repeated. Spenser is a quality product unlike many of the modern cop shows. One of the pluses is seeing major stars like Samuel L Jackson in supporting roles. The character of Spenser is relatively uncomplicated and surprisingly he is also very moral with a strong sense of right and wrong. As a straightforward piece of entertainment it has few peers and is well worth watching.
