Pros: Fun Family Entertainment, Great Episodes & Storylines!
Cons: There are 38 Episodes, but two appear to be Edited Syndicated Episodes. All the rest of the episodes are Complete and Uncut.
The Incredible Number Two Season of "The Donna Reed Show" is HERE!!! So Call your Relatives and Call your Neighbors because this particular season of an 'Iconic Family Series' is without a doubt, a much "Treasured Gift" for all!

This truly masterful second season of "The Donna Reed Show" continues on with the very popular Stone Family. This show can appear at times, like a continued documentary on a real life family. I say this, because the cast members seem to be so very comfortable with each other that they truly appear to be actually related to one another! This is what drew the audiences to this Classic TV Sitcom in the first place, when it had first aired in the late 1950's. And with its greatly selected Cast, plus this show's Fantastic Story Lines in which Actor Donna Reed herself had much influence over, is indeed what actually propelled this series with its Loyal Audiences for Eight Wonderful Seasons, with a vast number of episodes, 275 to be exact!!!

For this second season of "The Donna Reed Show" that had originally aired on The ABC Television Network, the TV time slot had changed from 9 PM to an earlier 8 PM time slot. And the day of the week that it had aired, changed from Wednesday Nights to Thursday Nights. This ABC Series did remain at its 8 PM time slot for 'Seven' more Successful Seasons!!

The cast includes in the starring role, the forever gorgeous & charming Donna Reed! And of course, this Academy Award Winning Actor was a 'Big Plus' in attracting audiences to this show. As was her continuing ability to play in a very convincing manner, her role of the Donna Stone Character, who is a Very Capable, Successful Wife and Mother of two. Seasoned Actor Donna Reed truly makes this Donna Stone Character her very own, as is clearly demonstrated in these number two season episodes from her show! And as a direct result of this, her 'Maternal Role' in this series shines very brightly indeed which had gained her many new ardent fans over the years of this show's run!

Carl Betz continues to play the character of Dr. Alex Stone, a very pleasant looking husband and 'Father Figure' who is also a charmer. And in this series, he has a most distinguished career as a highly dedicated doctor in the field of Pediatrics. This Dr. Stone Character continues to be portrayed excellently & quite convincingly by the very Accomplished Actor Carl Betz! Also, I might add here as a side note, that when Actor Carl Betz's is performing with his Fellow Cast Members in these second season episodes from "The Donna Reed Show," his precise timing and comical effectiveness, are always consistently Brilliant!!!! A trait of a truly Fine Actor!

Shelley Fabares continues with her role in playing the Character of Mary Stone, a very fresh faced, quite attractive, and truly likable Teenage Girl, who is coming of age into her young womanhood with wonderful results! The naturally Talented Actor Shelley Fabares is 'Great' in this role, and continues to give a highly admirable 'Charismatic Performance' in portraying her Mary Stone Character! I would also like to say that throughout this "Donna Reed Show" series, Mary Stone's sarcastic remarks (which had really heated up during the Fourth Season) towards her brother Jeff, are truly hilarious because they seem so very real!!! Especially after Mary spews forth with her not so flattering remarks, and then these very disgusted and disdainful expressions take over her face, which are all aimed so mightily towards her brother Jeff!! It is Just Priceless!!! Actor Shelley Fabares has this Brother Sister Act down to a Complete Science!

Paul Petersen also continues on with his role of playing the very Effervescent Mr. Personality Plus, and just Down Right FRESH Jeff Stone Character. He is the youngest family member of the household. This cute Jeff Stone Character continues to add a lot of spice and life to this show, and in these second season episodes, there are no exceptions to this fact... He is a very energetic & animated character that on occasion can appear somewhat bratty, but still lovable to the point of being very outrageous from time to time with his smart aleck remarks, that are actually Quite Funny!!! The very Talented Actor Paul Petersen continues to give the audience a first rate performance, and does an amazingly 'Superb Job' in his portrayal of the Jeff Stone Character!

Every episode of "The Donna Reed Show" is like watching a short Classic Movie since every episode is a Masterpiece in itself! So if your expecting any comparisons of this show to match the Television Shows of Today, FORGET IT!!!!!!! "The Donna Reed Show" was done very professionally with a top grade quality that far outshines the poorly written, produced, and directed TV shows of this present day. Even the Camera Work is much more interesting to observe in this Very Classic Sitcom than it is on today's TV sitcoms. When watching any episode from the second season of this Fantastic Family Series, you will know from the very first scene that your in good hands, which guarantees that the viewer will be taken on a mesmerized journey of pure joy and entertainment!!!

This Wonderful Number Two Season of "The Donna Reed Show" remains incredibly strong with its Great Cast, and Well Written Story Lines! And its very lovely and talented star "Donna Reed" with her unique screen presence, adds sheer magic to this extremely Well Crafted TV Series!

So don't you dare miss out on any of these episodes from this great sitcom's 'Fun Filled Second Season' which is a masterful continuation of a Very Classic Sitcom!

Note: There are a Whopping 38 Episodes from this Number Two Season of "The Donna Reed Show." Episode Number 46 entitled, "Flowers To The Teacher," and Episode Number 62 entitled, "The Gentle Dew," appear to be Edited Syndicated Episodes, but all the rest of the episodes from this truly 'Superb Show' are Complete and Uncut as they were originally broadcast during the 1959/1960 Season! It is such a 'Treat' to view these Classic Episodes from this bygone era of Great Television!!!! :)
