| | dOc DVD Review: Strangers With Candy: Season 2 (2000) |
 | | Strangers With Candy ran for just three seasons (1999-2001) on Comedy Central, and in that short span of time managed to make its mark as one of the weirdest and funniest shows on television, albeit with a level of humor that continually pushed the limits of cable's looser censorship restrictions. |
 | | This Season Two set, consisting of all ten episodes from 2000, finds the show settling into a comfortable groove, offering up some of the best moments of its three-year run, with Sedaris once again decked out in fatty pants and buck teeth, as she is transformed into the leering, cocksure Jerri Blank. |
 | | Season Two also features a classic two-parter, when Jerri joins a weird religious cult (Safetrap House) that preys on the friendless, as well as the departure of Jerri's catatonic father, Guy (Robert Gari), who is ripped apart by wild dogs in the season's fourth episode, The Goodbye Guy. |
