Some of the best ever episodes of "The Simpsons" are included here as the reason this entire franchise has been so successful is for me because of the intelligent script and the genius of James L Brooks. The drawings of the characters are naturally still raw as they are not the finished product that we have become used to over the years but this is acceptable given the quality of the gags and the great story-telling. These episodes though have been transferred from a poor videotape master as we frequently get the shimmering, crooked lines that you get on a bad video when the tape sticks to the playing magnetic head of the player and this is very evident in every episode which took away a great deal from my overall enjoyment of the dvds. I don't remember seeing these when they were screened on tv and so it's unfortunate that for a "Collector's Edition" that we should get such poor dvd picture quality transfer although I have to say the sound quality on Dolby 5.1 surround is pretty good.

Overall, great episodes, sound quality but poor picture quality transfer from what appears to be a videotape with all its inherent limitations.

This dvd collection is very good and important to me because of the Halloween episode. I like the way the discs are laid out. It comes with a book with a summary of each episode along with with commentary options. It has various other miscellaneous scenes which I have not watched yet. Overall if your a Simpson's fan its a classic must have season for your collection with the only flaw being that there is no play all selection in the menus that I can find

I ordered all of the Simpson dvd's available at this time as a gift. I am very pleased. Cannot wait until the others become available.

This is a great season of the Simpsons, though I think that the 5th season is the best by far, this is great, and it's got the first tree house of horror.

This is one of my favorite shows and the early episodes are great, it's also funny to see the references from stories that were controversial back then.

This was.....FANTASTIC!!!! Every episode was funny. Well most every episode at least. About 2 or 3 had something sad goin on but was covered up with comedy later on in the episode. Great season!

What can I say. I love everything about this dvd box set. I love the Simpsons.

I searched sites high and low for the best price and was able to find it for less than half the price of any other. It came in excellent condition, brand new, still in the wrapping!

It came in a few days, and it was in New Quality. I will definitely be purchasing from this person again.
