Rules of Engagement: The Complete Second Season takes us back into the lives of the experienced married couple (Audrey and Jeff), the newly engaged couple (Jennifer and Adam) and the rich-boy perpetual bachelor (Russell), as they each wade through their own unique battlefields of love.

In this season, Audrey (Megyn Price) and Jeff (Patrick Warburton) seriously consider having children, try to earn a better insurance weight (unfortunately Jeff realizes he is no longer considered an "Optimal Male") and Audrey's sister even comes to visit. Meanwhile, Jennifer (Bianca Kajlich) and Adam (Oliver Hudson) throw an engagement part (for the gifts), attempt to work together, make a "home video" and eventually settle on a wedding date. And Russell's (David Spade) life isn't all that boring either as he inadvertently dates a homeless woman, has to convince his dad that he is working hard in the office and Russell even tries to impress a philanthropist by buying a table at her next benefit (which he fills up with the rest of the cast), but he finds himself in a pickle when he is asked to talk at the benefit, but has no idea what the charity is for.

In one episode, after a vigorous morning in the bathroom, Jennifer and Adam break their sink and ask if they can use Audrey and Jeff's while the new one comes in. As you would expect, this ends up putting a bit of a strain on their friendship, but Audrey refuses to voice her complaints about the grimy state of their bathroom.

In "Old School Jeff", Jeff and Adam get a night women-free and decide to go to a local bar. As Jeff's drinking gets more and more in-depth, Russell decides it will be a great time to bring back his pool hustling work (since a drunken Jeff in his corner will surely discourage anyone from wanting to fight him). But when Jeff skips out just as Russell turns the tables on his prey, things don't go all that well for Russell.

There are quite a few good episodes in this season and the actors really play well off of each other. I've always liked Warburton's work, and when teamed up with the rest of the cast, the show just works well. You don't need to have seen Season One to really follow the events of this season (mostly because of the very episodic nature of the show), so if you didn't get a chance to see the first episodes, it won't take long to pick up each character's role.
