This is such a classic and defining show of the nineties, and while it's a shame to not see a proper release of the show on DVD, I'm glad for the opportunity to at least own the episodes in chronological order on these Amazon Made On Demand DVD-R's. This set collecting the first half of the second season contains the following 26 eleven minute long episodes from 1992-1993:

14 Toy Palace / Sand Ho
15 Chuckie Vs. The Potty / Together At Last
16 The Big House / The Shot
17 Showdown At Teeter-Totter Gulch / Mirrorland
18 Angelica's In Love / Ice Cream Mountain
19 Regarding Stuie / Garage Sale
20 Let There Be Light / The Bank Trick
21 Family Reunion / Grandpa's Date
22 No Bones About It / Beach Blanket Babies
23 Reptar On Ice / Family Feud
24 Superhero Chuckie / The Dog Broomer
25 Aunt Miriam / The Inside Story
26 A Visit From Lipschitz / What The Big People Do

Having now watched all the episodes on DVD I can say that the audio and video quality is not something you should be worried about when buying these Made On Demand sets. I am very uptight when it comes to the quality of the things I own and I can say that all the episodes were presented in the same, if not better than, quality they originally aired. My only issue as far as any of the Amazon Made On Demand sets is that being a purist I'd like the opening theme to play before every episode and not just the first one on each disc, but that's a very minor issue.

I personally had no issue playing the DVD-R type discs on any of my DVD player's or even on my Sony DVD Recorder. I have purchased several different Nickelodeon series (Doug, Hey Arnold & Rugrats) on Amazon 'MOD' sets now and had no issue with the picture or sound quality on any of them and they have all played fine on my DVD player's.

This set actually only contains half of the episodes from the complete second season of Rugrats. It contains thirteen half hour episodes but since each episode has two halves Amazon is counting each half as a full episode. Still these episodes are all classics and I'm happy to own any episodes of Rugrats on DVD. Now I'm just hoping that they'll release the rest of seasons 2-5 of the show on DVD.

I give five stars merely for the chance to own these episodes. Children's television was so much better in the nineties, thanks for your time.

*For those interested I have included summaries for the 26 eleven minute long episodes that are included in this set in my comments section to avoid cluttering up the review page.

Please release the other seasons! This is probably the most popular Nicktoon ever. Please release more seasons because we will be sure to buy them

I love Rugrats. I can't believe that there on DVD. I would love to have the other seasons too. Does anyone know when the other seasons are going to be coming out on DVD?? This is an awesome deal for being able to buy back one of my favorite childhood memories.

The description claims that "all 26 episodes of season 2" are provided in this set. However, this is not the case. Only the first 13 episodes of season 2 (26 "half" episodes) come in this set. This is quite disappointing since they say the complete season is included. $32 for half a season is pretty steep.

I love these amazon Nick exclusives, because it gets me my fix of old nick toons. I hope they continue to release more! However, amazon needs to get their seasons and descriptions right.

This would get 5 FULL STARS if it was the COMPLETE season. I will give it 3 stars since HALF the season is MISSING!

This is terrible. According to other reviews, this set contains only HALF of the complete second season of Rugrats. Now that Amazon has released all seasons of Rugrats, all 9 seasons, this issue needs to be resolved. I urge all Rugrats fans to avoid purchasing any Rugrats seasons from Amazon until they reissue the complete second season and release the remaining episodes from season 9 (currently it is released as a "Best Of" set). I am excited that Amazon has gone to great lengths to release all the seasons, but to leave out just a few episodes and forget about it is simply unacceptable! So until Amazon releases the complete Season 2 and Season 9, I will not purchase any of these sets, and I hope everyone else will do the same. If/When this gets resolved, I will purchase them all and replace these reviews with 5 star reviews! Thank you.

January 2012 UPDATE: Wow. What an unbelievable blow to Amazon's customers. Here we have been writing to them and posting in these reviews that we want the complete season 2 and complete season 9 to be released. For me, I will not purchase any seasons until the complete series is available in its entirety. Instead of coming to their senses and releasing the remaining episodes, they slap "the best of" on Season 2. Basically, this shows that, in all likelihood, they don't have the intention to release the remaining episodes. I just think this is very unprofessional and extremely selfish on their part if they want to turn a profit on these. I WILL NOT BUY ANY RUGRATS SEASON DVDS FROM AMAZON UNLESS THEY RELEASE THE COMPLETE SERIES! THIS IS TERRIBLE! I URGE ALL OF YOU TO AVOID PURCHASING THIS SEASON AND WRITE TO AMAZON THAT YOU WANT THE FULL SEASON! WHY PAY FULL PRICE FOR HALF A SEASON?! OUTRAGEOUS!!!!!!!

Ive previously bought season 1 in doing so i found to my surprised found that it was burnt onto a disk. I simply put it in and yet again to my surprise it played perfect, sound was amazing along with color. I have also decided to purchase the second season i'm sure to have the same results Also,I strongly suggest 3rd season be placed out. Now do keep in mind it's purely for my own entertainment and it has brought me grand joy.I thank the person who has created this not only for my own love for Rugrats but for future generations to enjoy it . If you do enjoy Rugrats i highly suggest you buy this copy simply because this is a far lower price then you will find on any other site.

Why does Amazon not want to produce seasons 3 and up? Your customers will clearly respond by ordering. Please do this!

This is a great buy. I bought seasons 1 & 2 and both are great! Brings back a lot of memories and is well worth the price, trust me! The episodes are of good quality which is a plus! i highly recommend getting these DVDs!!!

My kids are always reminiscing about the Rugrats shows they loved. They are now teenagers, but they can enjoy watching this together! Buying it at Amazon made it reasonably priced and delivered for free!

I've watched almost this whole set and it's been good quality, and it was in good condition. It's exactly the same as I remember it on Nickelodeon. As someone said earlier though, this DVD set is just the shows and nothing else like a normal series release would be. But the important thing is the shows are good. The only complaint I have is that...this is not all of season 2! This is actually half of Season 2. I'm hoping they're going to release a second half of season 2, because that's only fair. Still, I must say I've really enjoed the disk, and it was worth the money. It's rugrats in their prime, when the plots were still good and they didn't add a bunch of lame characters or new animation. I'm looking forward to the second half of season 2 and then season 3!
