Summary: Longer and Better than the first
Review: It only gets better. The long awaited second season has finally arrived and the wait has been well worth it.
A delightful entry to each DVD, you must match four character heads to the correct Springfieldian to be able to get to the main menu area. It is set up quite amusingly.
Once again, there are options abound. You can choose several languages, and even opt to listen to the producers and directors speak through episodes. I find this extrememly interesting. "This is the first episode in which we tried..." is what you hear often. They also like to discuss the little things you may have missed.
As most DVDs, there is also the option of closed caption. I like to use this option while listening to Matt Groening, Sam Simon, James Brookes and others discussing the episode.
Finally, We get to see Bart's famous music videos. As an added surprise, we get to watch the 1991 Music Video Awards. It is quite interesting to see Bart as a 3-D character, not animated.
Some memorable episodes on this compilation are; "A Brush with Greatness" in which Marge paints Burns' portrait, "Dancing Homer" as the mascot of the local baseball team the Isotopes, "Bart gets an F" when Bart prays for a snowday so he can study to pass the fourth grade, and many others.
If you like the Simpsons, you will not regret purchasing this DVD compilation. If you love the Simpsons, why are you reading this? You should own it already!

Summary: A must have for Simpsons fans
Review: How could you not buy this collection if you truly love the simpsons. The second season collection is a better bargain than the first, seeing how you get over 20 episodes compared to the 13 in the first season.

The quality is great, and is slightly better than the first season. The first season DVDs would sometimes get the jitters (skip a little), but the second season DVDs do it less frequently and less noticeably.

My one and only complaint is the need to press the select button three times (until spinning heads line up to their corresponding bodies) each time you put the DVD in for the first time. This is not a feature, but rather a distraction. Who likes endless screens that appear for 2-3 minutes before you can jump into a DVD? This is on the same level of annoyance.

Summary: The best show on TV begins to show it
Review: I've been a huge Simpsons fan since the Tracey Ulmann days. I'm very pleased the second season is FINALLY out. The thing I really enjoy about these episodes is that you can actually see the show evolving. The animation improves. Homer transforms from the angry father to the lovable buffoon. The writing becomes sharper. These are also the first episodes where guest stars lend their vocal talents to the show.

This is when The Simpsons really started to become great. The best is still yet to come. I think the show really hit it's prime around Season 4. Let's home they don't make us Simpsons fans wait so long for the next one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Arguably the best season
Review: I just got the this DVD set and its fantastic. Arguably this is when the Simpsons hit their stride. The first season was good, but the art and the voices still haven't come together. By the 2nd season, the Simpsons found their look and sound. This season had some of the best episodes ever, such as Homer's brush with death by sushi, Dustin Hoffman as Lisa's teacher, the first appearance of the comic book guy... This set is a must buy for all lovers of great television, live or animated.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bliky Rules!
Review: This is a must have for any Simpsons fan. While the first season is for the hard-core...dare I say obssesed fans...the second season is one every Simpsons fan will love! Each of the 22 episodes also has a commentary audio track that heighten the Simpsons experience. You will also get the first Treehouse Of Horrors episode, a classic Simpsons Halloween treat!

Anyone who likes the Simpsons will love this DVD! It isn't a purchase it is an investment! This classic cartoon and piece of American history is a must have!

I also recomend the First Season DVD set to the truely dedicated fans, the animation is rough, the voices are funny, the colors are unfamiliar, but it is classic Simpsons!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Stop thinking about it and BUY
Review: I am very happy with this purchase...Its cheap and a great collection of episodes (22). I passed on the first one, mostly because of the animation, and the second and third seasons are when Homer gets funny. If you are like me, and watch them in syndication everyday, this is a must buy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This DVD set is really really COOL!!!
Review: This is the best TV show ever. This DVD set is quite a bit better
than "The Simpsons complete First Season" on DVD(Which I also bought on the release date). I've been waiting for a collection like this to come out for a LONG time. Commentary on every single episode, all 22 of them. The commentaries are great. Great picture and sound quality, following in the tradition of "Season 1" on DVD. Nearly double the episodes of "Season 1". How can you go wrong? I would have easily thrown out 35 dollars just for that. But, in addition, they threw in several GREAT special features. This DVD set is just a real blast. I can't wait for Season 3 with the way these DVD sets are turning out. This is about twice as good as season 1. And I loved Season 1 on DVD. These just keep getting better and better.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing DVD & Great Site
Review: ... I watched some of the extras so far, and they are just great! Buy it! I did notice that you can switch the discs around to have diff. heads on the bodies. Just dont do that, for it may wear out the discs. :-)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I've got my copy...
Review: Well, I went out and bought it today. I have one big complaint, is the head switching thing really necessary? The extras were great, and I must admit I've never seen those music videos before...

Rating: 5 stars
