Summary: Are you a fan? Buy this!
Review: Bottom line: The Simpsons is the funniest, smartest show on television. This is satire at its best! It has a strong cast of characters which is one of the reasons it has survived for so many years. This DVD is a fan's dream, and is loaded with clips, commentary, and of course the groundbreaking first season of shows. A landmark show finally has a fitting DVD set. The early episodes of course aren't quite as sharp in the animation department, as the art and produciton values will continue to grow with each season. The writing is there, however, and its fun seeing how the characters have evolved/grown over time. And hey, these are the classic episodes! I look forward to the release of the rest of the seasons, but for now will enjoy this wonderful set. If you are a fan (and you probably are since you're reading this) this is a must have. This is the kind of set you go buy a DVD player for!

Summary: The King of Comedies: Our Favorite Series Begins
Review: People might ask you if you like the Simpsons. But a more appropriate question would be to ask if you don't like the Simpsons. A massive animated sitcom spanning over 15 years and 300 episodes, this still very well alive FOX hit comedy series is nowhere near its end. This season is the one that started it all. Though far from being perfect, you've got to remember folks, times were different in the 80's. The stereotype of comedies has changed drastically over the decades, and the Simpsons is no exception. Still though, the irreverent style and plots of the episodes is retained, and I dare you to watch the entire season without laughing once. From Homer's emergence as bigfoot, to the babysitting bandit, Simpsons fans will be screaming D'oh and seeking out Springfield in no time. This show is not just a sitcom, but our life rendered through an irreverent funnel of animation, comedy, and overall genius.

Summary: Great start! Ending looks to be 50 years away...
Review: I'll be about 40 years old by the time every season is finally out on DVD; the funny thing is that a new video format will have probably come along by that point! Oh, well. Up until season nine is all I really care about. I've been watching this show from day one. I'd like to say that these early episodes are great for their nostalgic value, but I've seen them countless times over the years. Not great episodes, but pretty good. Obviously, the Simpsons would become much better.However, I see a few one star reviews that are completely unwarranted. Sure, the show needed a couple seasons to get it totally right, but to call season one terrible is a slap in the face to true Simpsons fans. Like it or not, this is how the show got it's start. My guess is that those who dislike this season were too young to watch it when it was first aired. Besides, season one has a charm that far out-weighs recent Simpsons seasons. Some of the new episodes are downright uncomfortable to sit through. The show has run it's course. Jumped the shark. Time to end it and leave us with fond memories of better episodes before the new ones leave a sour taste in our mouth.

Summary: Finally Someone Speaks Out!!
Review: .
Contrary to movies, where the origional is always the best, ie, the first "Halloween", the origional "Lethal Weapon", and the origional "Airplane", television series' tend to go in the opposit direction. Yes I suppose all Simpsons fans know that the first classic episodes featured rough animation and off kilter voice overs, but I was unaware of the extent of the damage we're dealing with here. In another anymous review titled "mediocre", the writer was the first person who actually seen what I had seen. Yes these were classics, but like he mentioned, when was Smithers an African American. Maybe I have excess anylitical skills, but in addition to this, Chief Wiggims turns every color in between brown, tan, baige and yellow in a single episode, which is "Krusty gets busted". Also like the same review pointed, this season offered only funny moments, and there were no real laughs, save for when the entire Simpsons family gives each other shock therapy in the episode "There's No Disgrace Like Home". Upon this there were many very pleasant episodes, such as "The Crepes of Wrath", as well as "Krusty Gets Busted", where Sideshow Bob is introduced as Bart's eternal nemisis, yet this only shadows what is to come. Call me a pessimist, but I'd rather own (I do anyway) from season two on, when Arnold Swatrzenegger guest starred, in addition to when the animation is clear and refined, and the voice acting is top notch and in its stride, and when the episodes move with the brisk speed and zanny antics that us Simpson fans have grown to love. Because face it folks, without the top notch voice acting that shapes the characters, more interesting characters to fit into every episode in zanny ways (Milhouse sudenly appearing in the living room of the Simpsons' home and exclaiming "Because he's the kind that kisses and leaves you, indicating Homer), well then its just not worth it for me. Despite the many glithches and loads of seasons that out there or will be available soon, this first season still has its moments.

Summary: Silly, Obnoxious Cartoon
Review: This cartoon is one of my worst enemies. Honestly it is. The dialogue and animation is so bad, it is sickening. To say nothing of the obnoxiousness. Stay away from this TERRIBLE cartoon, because it is not worth your while.

Summary: The Season that Started it all
Review: This is not the best season out of the 15years they have been aired on fox but, this is the most memerable season. The animation isnt that perfect but thanks to todays' technology some of the animation from this season has been improved & more colorful making it the best it can be. While this is the most memerable season it still has some pretty good episodes on it. My favorite episodes for season 1..
'Simpsons Roasting On an Open Fire' 1x01
'Homer's Odyessy' 1x03
'There's No Disgrace Like Home' 1x04
'The Call of the Simpsons' 1x07
'Krusty Gets Busted' 1x12 (only reason why i like this episode is because of the fact that Sideshow Bob is in it)
'Some Enchanted Evening' 1x13 The rest of the episodes are either good or decent...
'Bart The Genius' 1x02 (3/5)
'Bart The General' 1x05 (3/5)
'Moaning Lisa' 1x06 (2/5)
'The Telltale Head' 1x08 (4/5)
'Life On The Fast Lane' 1x09 (0/5) - the only episode i would never watch
'Homer's Night Out' 1x10 (3/5)
'The Crepes of Wrath' 1x11 (3/5) I would have given this season set a 2 or 3 Stars but its the first season.. it deserves more & it spawned 14more seasons & its expected to run at least 4 more years to this date. The simpsons has been the best animated series there is & this is the season that started it all.

Summary: The Simpsons are great
Review: If you looked for someone who's never seen an episode of the Simpsons, you'll be looking for a while. Now, you can (legally) bring the Simpsons to your house on a DVD. This has all the episodes from the 1st season, including the first ever episode. Although the animation can be glitchy, the Simpsons are still enjoyable. This has a bunch of episodes. Some of these are very memorable (including the one where Sideshow Bob frames Krusty the Klown). There are 3 DVDs with pure Simpsons bliss. Just buy the thing.
