Rating - Make Me Laugh
Cons: In the Special Features in Disc 3, Regina King and Jill Talley talk about how Talley can do voiceovers for so many characters, including Black women, but the only characters they showed her doing was white women. If you're going to talk about her ability to do other characters, I want to see them, so I can be wow'd too. "The Hunger Strike" episode was boring. I got the point of it, but I didn't laugh once. I'm also not amused at the "What N**gas?" Bonus Feature. A thesaurus is there for a reason. Find another word to use. Any word please. I'm not big on erasing it from history or the dictionary, and I can understand using it when necessary, but even interviewing some of the cast, they were using the word then. It was annoying.
Pros: I love this show! "The Uncle Ruckus Reality Show" was the best episode this season, and I actually liked it more than the King episode from Season One, although the Gangstalicious episodes will forever be the ones I laugh at the hardest. "The Uncle Ruckus Reality Show" didn't shortstop on any stereotype that Black folks are labeled with, and I fell on the floor when that fool Ruckus started talking about Black Greeks, barking like dogs, and twirling "candy canes." I'm SO glad I bought Season 2 just for that episode alone. "The S-Word" was a good one because although I'm not in favor of using the n-word, it gave an amusing and truthful look at the word and how some people may be taking advantage of it for celebrity's sake. (Note: Look at the photos of Mychal Bell of the Jena 6 being released from prison. Look at Al Sharpton hogging every SINGLE shot of those pics. That's who I thought about the entire time I was watching this episode, and the reference to Jesse backed it right up.) "The Story of Gangstalicious 2" with Riley wearing girl's clothes and switching tickled me, but I still like the first one better. I like Thugnificent from Terr-a-ble (sp?) too, but Gangstalicious is better, maybe because I'm a hardcore fan of Mos Def. Regina King is a genius with Riley's and Huey's voices, and I enjoy the rest of the cast. "Or Die Trying" was a great episode, but then again, they all were, minus "The Hunger Strike" that was a little too serious to be funny. Once again, I'm loving the show and will forever want to see it continue.

Rating - VERY GOOD, BUT NOT AS GOOD AS SEASON 1
This is hilarious! The BET segments were a little over the top, but I really enjoyed the rest. Riley and Granddad are funny as ever. However, I liked Season 1 a little better.
