Summary: The "General Sherman" of Simpson DVD collections
Review: I am a huge fan of the Simpsons, and I especially enjoyed seasons 2-5, so of course I think this is an outstanding collection.All the episodes from season 2 are here in their original form, meaning they have extra scenes that were cut for syndication. The video and audio are outstanding, as one would expect from DVD. In addition to the episodes, there are a bunch of special features and clips, including music videos, an interview with James L. Brooks and Matt Groening, and the Simpsons Emmy appearance. Better still, each episode has additional audio tracks, including commentary by the directors, writers, Groening, and other Simpsons honchos. I bought the set for the episodes, but the commentary tracks are interesting enough to warrant occasional viewing. Season 2 has the greatest number of the definitive Simpsons episodes: Treehouse of Horror, Bart Gets Hit by a Car, Oh Brother Where Art Thou, Three Men and a Comic Book... the list goes on and on. These are the first episodes for Lionel Hutz, Dr. Nick Riviera, the comic book store guy... it doesnt get much better. The only problem with the DVD set is the annoying menu interface when you first start each disc. The outstanding video and audio quality, along with a plethora of added features, make this DVD collection a must-own for new and old Simpsons fans alike.

Summary: Great Episodes, better features than the first.
Review: But did anyone else have problems accessing the "ART OF THE SIMPSONS" feature? When I click to scroll to see the pics, nothing happens or comes up. Is this a glitch on just mine or what? Besides this, it's way more bang for your buck then the first season and the commentary's are more entertaining and less complaining about the animation, although I can't imagine them doing commentary's for every episode in seasons 3-13. I mean, What more could their be to say after so long? I hope Season 3 comes out THIS WINTER, I wouldn't care if they left out commentary tracks as long as they just release it in a descent amount of time. Their are too many seasons to be releasing ONE PER YEAR. ANYWHOZ, BUY THIS. It's great.

Summary: Homer Simpson does the Raven
Review: Worth the whole price of the disks just to see Homer Simpson in the Raven. One of the best bits ever, brought tears to my eyes. I also loved when the Alien cries when the Simpsons thought incorrectly that they were going to be eaten (very touching), obviously the Simpsons have watched too many Twilight Zones. Priceless stuff. I feel so sorry for the people that don't GET the Simpsons.

Summary: Waiting for Season Three
Review: As a huge fan of the Simpsons, I bought the first and second season DVD sets more out of duty than desire. Season Two was a huge improvement upon Season One--there are more episodes, the animation is greatly improved and the show begins to take on the satirical attitude that we have all come to love--but in my opinion, the best episodes start to come in Season Three. If I were to compile a list of my top twenty favorite Simpsons episodes, not a single one on the list would be from the first two seasons. As far as the quality of the DVD set goes, I felt it could have been better. There are a few special features--episodes commentaries, magazine covers, Butterfinger commercials, music videos of "Deep, Deep Trouble" and "Do the Bartman"--but I thought we were supposed to be getting more Tracy Ulman shorts. These mini-episodes are how the Simpsons began and I was under the impression that each DVD set would contain at least one of these, so I was disappointed that this was not an included special feature. Another negative to the DVD set is that in order to get to the episode menu, you have to do this spin-the-wheel thing three times to match up the heads on the outside with the bodies on the inside. It can be kind of funny at first, but when you have to do it every single time, it gets annoying. Aside from these negatives, the DVD set is pretty nice. You get to see the episodes in the original form, including the entire opening credits sequence and segments of most shows that were lost in syndication. Plus there is the obvious benefit of not have to sit through commercials. Here is a list of each episode from Season Two with a brief synopsis: 1) Bart Gets an F: Bart needs to pass a history test in order to avoid repeating the 4th grade
2) Simpson and Delilah: Homer gets promoted because of his new head of hair gained by charging a hair growth formula to his company health insurance
3) Treehouse of Horror: this first trilogy of Halloween stories started the annual Simpsons tradition. In "Bad Dream House," the Simpsons buy a possessed house. In "Hungry Are the Damned," the Simpsons are abducted by aliens. The third segment is a satire of Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven" where Homer is tormented by a raven resembling Bart.
4) Two Cars in Every Garage and Three Eyes on Every Fish: Burns runs for governor in order to change safety regulations so he does not have to spend millions of dollars bringing the power plant up to code
5) Dancin' Homer: Homer gets a job as the mascot for Springfield's minor league baseball team
6) Dead Putting Society: When Bart and Todd Flanders enter a mini-golf competition, Homer and Ned make a wager on whose son will win
7) Bart vs. Thanksgiving: Bart gets sent to his room after destroying Lisa's Thanksgiving centerpiece so he runs away from home
8) Bart the Daredevil: inspired by a daredevil stunt show, Bart decides to jump the Springfield Gorge on his skateboard
9) Itchy & Scratchy & Marge: when Maggie clubs Homer on the head with a mallet, Marge tries to rid cartoons of violence.
10) Bart Gets Hit by a Car: Homer tries to sue Burns for a million dollars after Bart gets hit by Burns' car
11) One Fish, Two Fish, Blowfish, Blue Fish: Homer is told that he ate a poisonous fish at a Japanese restaurant and that he has 24 hours to live
12) The Way We Was: after the TV breaks, Homer and Marge tell the story of how they met
13) Homer vs. Lisa and the Eighth Commandment: Homer gets an illegal cable hookup, but Lisa tries to convince him to stop using it after she goes to Sunday School and is told that people who break the Ten Commandments go to hell
14) Principal Charming: Homer invites Principal Skinner over as a date for Marge's sister Selma, but he falls in love with Patty, Selma's twin sister, instead
15) Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?: Homer finds his long-lost illegimate half-brother, who owns a car company and hires Homer to design a car for the common man
16) Bart's Dog Gets an F: Santa's Little Helper gets sent to obedience school after causing problems around the house
17) Old Money: Abe Simpson falls in love with a resident at the retirement home, but she dies shortly after and leaves him all her money
18) Brush With Greatness: Burns hires aspiring artist Marge to paint a portrait of him for the dedication of a new wing at the museum
19) Lisa's Substitute: Lisa develops a crush on her substitute teacher; Bart runs for class president
20) The War of the Simpsons: Marge signs up for a marriage retreat after Homer gets drunk at their dinner party
21) Three Men and a Comic Book: Bart, Milhouse and Martin pool their money to buy the first Radioactive Man comic book.
22) Blood Feud: Homer expects a monetary gift of thanks when Bart saves Burns' life by donating his rare blood. Those are the episodes from Season Two. The characters are more developed and the episodes are more amusing than Season One, but I am patiently waiting for the later seasons to be released so that I can finally have my favorite episodes on DVD.

Summary: They Cut out some of the greatest scenes...Why?
Review: ...." worst Simpson's Collection , ever.." I hate to give anything with the Simpsons a bad rating, but on this I must make an exception. They cut a scene, in my opinion, from one of the funniest episodes. In the episode titled "Bart the Daredevil" the last scene where Homer falls into the gorge a second time, was deleted. In my opinion and according to the booklet included with the set, this scene was what made this episode a classic. So if you are a devoted Homer-lovin' couch potato like me, then you should expect to find not only the commercials deleted but also some of your favorite scenes as well. But overall it is enjoyable to see some of my favorite episodes from this season.

Summary: Here's the BEST reason to buy Simpsons on DVD
Review: The best reason to buy the Simpsons on DVD is because TV Stations CUT OUT about 5-10 minutes of each episode so they can fill more commercial airtime. So when you get the Simpsons on DVD - you get to see parts of episodes you may have NEVER SEEN BEFORE! The greedy TV Stations don't care about giving you the whole episode, all they care about is commerical revenue. But with the DVD collections, you get the ENTIRE EPISODES and don't have to deal with annoying commericals and cuts. The episodes make much more sense in their full-length versions - so get them on DVD! Screw TV stations!

Summary: The Simpsons; A Sequel
Review: The Complete Second Season Box Set is a must have for Simpson collecters who already own the first season. This DVD Set has 9 more episodes than the first and the episodes are much better. If you are a recent or long time simpson fan, you have no reason to not buy it. It has all new special features, all new comedy, and two music videos by Bart. Don't forget a funny introduction by Simpson Creater, Matt Groening.

Summary: A Simpsons Fan's Delight
Review: Season 2 of the Simpsons is where the show settled into its winning form. Having the whole season of shows available full length (the shows in syndication are shortened somewhat) in DVD format was enough to sell me on this set. The video is crisp and vibrant. The audio is fine as these are the pre-stereo shows. The audio commentary ranges from okay to hilarious and includes much insight into the creation of the show. Finally, adding in the little details, from the packaging and the extras to the animated bits in the menus, makes this DVD set a 5-star recommendation for me.
