ifreethought.com rating: **** Great season. As good as the first season. Great episode featuring "bi-sexuality" when a guy dating Elaine turns out to be more interested in Alex. Also, the episode where Latka Gravis transforms into Vic Ferrari and the episode where Latka makes his grandmother's cookies which contain a special ingredient. Plus more Christopher Lloyd as Reverend Jim Ignatowski is never a bad decision. Many episodes in this season stand out.
