Victorious: The Complete Second Season Review

Nickelodeon fans, take note: The channel’s hit teen sitcom, Victorious, is releasing its complete second season on DVD today, March 18th. For the uninitiated, Victorious is part of the new wave of Nick programming aimed at young adults. We had Clarissa Explains it All and Salute Your Shorts; today’s kids have shows like Victorious, iCarly and Big Time Rush. And like SpongeBob, these shows have also garnered a lot of grown-up fans for their humor and charm. I’m a fan of these programs because the lighthearted storylines are cute, funny, and make for nice escapism! I also love that all these shows incorporate music – bubblegum pop is one of my favorite genres and always lifts my spirits. I’ve mentioned that Victorious isn’t my favorite of these sitcoms because I cringe at some of the awkward situations, but I really love the music and have been listening to the soundtrack on Spotify a lot recently!

So, I had to smile when I received a promo copy of Victorious: The Complete Second Season for review. This two-disc set has over five hours of episodes and special features sure to delight fans. The DVD includes the following:
