Summary: ONE GREAT DVD!
Review: This is a great DVD. The Simpsons is the best show EVER! I have Seasons 1 & 2, and I am going to get the 3rd Season when it comes out. My personal favorites on this DVD (these are my absolute favorites, because all of these episodes are great) are The Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire, Bart the Genius, and The War of the Simpsons. THIS IS ONE EXCELLENT DVD. IF YOU LIKE THE SIMPSONS>YOU SHOULD HAVE IT ALREADY>BUT IF YOU DON"T FOR SOME REASON>GET IT!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: First season=a ton of laughter
Review: The Simpsons First Season is such an entertaining DVD that you can watch over and over again.

All 13 episodes are on it, including optional commentary by the makers of the show. Starting from the Christmas special, going through the first Sideshow Bob episode, and all the way to the babysitter bandit. This DVD is full of laughter that you will never get tired of.

If you watch The Simpsons, buy this DVD. If you don't watch The Simpsons, you should still buy the DVD. This show is the longest running comedy on the air, and it is still going.

Summary: Greatest television family comes to DVD!
Review: The Simpsons is the quintessential American family from the wrong side of the tracks. Many of the episodes remind me of my own growing up!

Under all the hype there is one common message - don't take yourself too seriously! I was a bit like Lisa - too worried as a child about mankind's future to appreciate all the mishief my kid brother (i.e., Bart) could get into and enjoy!

Okay, the American family is not so similar to the Simpson's. But, the Simpson's are far truer to type than most other tv families and...they are a great deal funnier!

My favorite Simpson joke is also my son's favorite - the attorney talking about the bad luck of drawing the judge who hates him because he sort of ran over the judge's dog - well, substitute dog for son, and repeatedly for sort of...

To appreciate later years one needs to see the first season and DVD is the ideal method!

Summary: I love this set
Review: This set introduced me to The Simpsons, before I purchased this a while back I had never seen one Simpsons episode, ever. What a great series. It's old, but I like it. The animation and stories aren't as good as the second season, but if you're a fan you'll still love it.

Rating: 4 stars

Episode 3-Homers Odessy- Homer reads a book of different stories to Bart and Lisa, by putting himself in it. Lisa stars as Joan of Ark, while Homer stars as Odesseyos in the Odyssey, while bart plays prince Hamlet. With these characters in these stories, it's obviossly going to be an amusing ride.

This episode is one hilarious ride.

Episode 11-The Crepes Of Wrath-Homer and Principal Skinner send Bart to France, where he is forced to do horrible jobs, sleep on the floor, and to make and test wine. Meenwhile, Homer and Marge take in an Albanian student who is a secret spy for Albania.

Episode 13-Some Enchaanted Evening- A real-life drama of law and order is played out on "The Simpons" when the notorius Babby Sitter Bandit is hired to watch the simpon kids. This episode is a roller coaster ride of terror and Homeric Stupidity.

This DVD is great. It coantains all kinds of great episodes that are always played on TV. I advise you to buy it as soon as possible.

An absolute must buy for anyone and everyone.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's about time!
Review: I've been waiting for The Simpsons to come out with season DVD's ever since I became a fan. And now, I get to watch all the first season episodes over and over again. I love all of the episodes, especially "The Crepes Of Wrath" and "Some Enchanted Evening."

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: I love the Simpsons, but this is a bit rediculous
Review: You can't watch all the episodes at once on these DVD's. You must first select the episode, then select to play that episode. Then when it's done playing, you have to go back a menu level, select another episode, the select PLAY to watch that one...and so on and so forth.

The people who designed these DVD's are FIRED, as it is the most harrassing & annoying setup I have ever seen. But it's the only way to get the episodes on DVD currently available. I suggest getting a good DVD maker/copier and totally redoing this DVD set after you buy it so you can stick a DVD in and watch all the episodes. Quite the crock for [so much money], eh?
