There are classic episodes on this video. Like the 2 Who Shot Mr. Burns. Both parts(1 and 2) are on this video. Also Krusty gets Kancelled is a great one. Johnny Carson, Bette Midler,The Red Hot Chilly Peppers and more are on that episode.Also Bart gets famous where he says "I didn't do it" and he is a star...for a while. A Street Car Named Marge is good too(she is the star in a play).And Marge vs. The Monorail(Where a monorail is built in Springfield)GET THIS BOX SET!

The Simpsons in Hollywood is a light hearted look at how Matt Groening would draw Celebrities. This video contains some of todays brightest stars Alec Baldwin, Kim Basinger, Ron Howard, Bette Midler, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Johnny Carson. All are extremely funny and portrayed in the exact way we see them in real life. They all seem to fit into springfields way of life with ease and dignity. Top watch for all

You got to buy this what as great boxed set my favorite epsiodes are who shot burns part 1 + 2. Ive seen these before but there uncut it means the scenes that were cut because of commercial time were inserted includinhgthe infamous scene where the town destroys burnses sunblocker and it collapses on shelbyville it is funny. You can only see these scenes on tape.

This video pack is good for any Simpsons fan. On the first video is "Marge vs. The Monorail" in which Mr. Spock (Leonard Nimoy) makes an appearance. The next episode is "A Streetcar Named Marge" where Marge stars in a musical version of "A Streetcar Named Desire."One the next video is "Who Shot Mr. Burns" parts 1 and 2.. The last video features "Bart Gets Famous" where Bart stumbles upon a famous catch line and appears on "The Conan O'Brien Show." The other episode "Krusty Gets Kancelled" is one of my favorites. In order of best to least it would go: 1. Krusty Gets Kancelled, 2. Marge Vs. The Monorail, 3. and 4. Who Shot Mr. Burns Parts 1 and 2, 5. A Streetcar Named Marge, 6. Bart Gets Famous

This boxed set, like any other piece of Simpsons merchandise is a good buy. Tape One starts out with "Marge vs. The Monorail" a great, hilarious episode featuring a classic Simpsons musical moment. Then, "A Streetcar Named Marge", my favorite on the set, and named one of creator Matt Groening's favorites as well, is an episode no true fan could do without. Tape two features the Who Shot Mr. Burns episodes which are both immediate classics. Tape three includes "Bart Gets Famous", a fun episode with some absolutely hilarious box factory scenes, and the funniest closing lines in Simpsons history, in my humble opinion. Finally, "Krusty Gets Kancelled" rounds out the set, and it's endless parade of guest stars, amazingly, doesn't bog down the episode, but improves it, unlike some modern episodes. Overall, I have to say that this is one set that Simpsoniacs everywhere can't do without.

What a great idea for a collection! I only wish they would have done it earlier. The biggest problem evident with this collection is that the connections between some of the episodes and the "theme" of the title (The Simpsons Go Hollywood) is tenuous at best: What exactly, for example, does Hollywood have to do with a production of a musical version of A Streetcar Named Desire? No matter--this is a great collection of episodes. Every one is great, and you will want to watch them time and time again. I had forgotten how good a couple of these episodes were, and appreciated the opportunity to rediscover them. Whether you are a long time fan, or are just discovering The Simpsons for the first time, you should own this collection.

Now all that we need is some more recent episodes of this classic that deserve to be available. Such as the "gay" episode with John Waters and the episode with the comet which was a full five years before the stupid Bruce Willis fiasco. Anyway this set has the brilliant one where Marge is the lead in a musical version of Streetcar. The diner seen at the Simpson table in that one is hilarious. Plus the "who shot Burns" two parter is great.

Now, it's probably me just being a blind fan of the simpsons what with the jokes and the laughter and the MUHAY! But this little tv series I feel is most deffinately the best ever. Plus the only people that I have met who have not liked this show are you cold hearted "no laughter" types. Most likely because a main point the Simpson creaters make are that many republican polititions have been extremely greedy and obsessed with money and many democratic polititions have been just plain ... :) and the reason you "no laughter" types dont like that is because you KNOW IT'S TRUE!! So instead of hating this show, how about u just shut up and watch an episode with a simpson lover (like me) and i garuntee you will fall in love yourself.

Next Rant:
I Love South Park!

It's a good pack. But once you see all 3 videos, you don't want to watch it again.

It's a good thing for a Simpson adicted, but if you aren't, buy it anyway, there are several great episodes that oyu and your family can watch it on the spare time. It brings to you episodes like "Who shot Mr. Burns 1 & 2", those great episodes where Mr. Burns was shoted by someone in Springfield, or even episodes like "Barts Gets Famous" where Bart came a TV famous guy with his "I didn't do it" phrase, and other episodes like "Krusty Gets Kanceled", "Marge vs. the Monorail" and "A Streetcar Named Marge", it's a must have boxed set.
