Advantages: great for all fans of the Simpsons, lots of special features. Disadvantages: could do with some more Tracey Ullman shorts

you're a Simpson's fan, why don't
you own this already!

Advantages: Great if you like the Simpsons (obviously), I got it for very cheap Disadvantages: It's not cheap everywhere, has a different feel to later series.
This is, fairly obviously, the DVD of the first TV series of the very popular show, 'The Simpsons'. For those of you who haven't heard of it before, the Simpsons is a cartoon series that has been running since the early 90s, which focuses on one particular family, the Simpsons. It's a great cartoon for children, but also has a lot of jokes in it that only adults will get, making it accessible for all ages of viewers.
On the TV the Simpsons is on ...

...this series 1 simpsons from the shop W.h.smith. I buy it for 16 pounds. I was a young person shopping in Uxbridge, running for the greatest DVDs and I saw this one on the shelf to just look like a small family who are made of yellow skin. Aswell as the yellow skin there is another funny appearance that is on this 3 disc set. I won't tell you the funny appearance but I will tell you that the other day I largely watched the simpsons in a certain silly ...

Advantages: packed full with bonus features Disadvantages: not as much episodes as other seasons
...episodes- including all episodes from the first season of the hit american comedy show, is a reasonably good collection.
If you are a real Simpsons fan, you will notice that the way the characters look and the attention to detail is not as great as shown in later seasons- yet with this , you must remember it is only the first season, and it does take time for things to kick off.
The Simpsons season one DVD comes presented in a shiny silver box, ...

Advantages: Hillarious Disadvantages: Only 13 episodes
...course a must! It contains the first 13 episodes ever made of the Simpsons, and since then there have been around 300 episodes! These episodes were first shown on British TV back in the early 90s, and there is a noticeable difference between these and future episodes that are on TV now. The animation is not so crisp, and Homer has a different voice (From Season 2 onwards it was officially changed so he would sound more stupid!) This of course, does ...

Advantages: The product itself is great: a succint collection of complete series one with everything in one package. Funny. Good commentary Disadvantages: As a program, series one is far worse than later series of Simpsons.
...for Simpsons fans-it contains all the episodes of Season 1, with commentary on all episodes, with relevant production notes and promotional footage, in one set. The box is well decorated in simpsons designs, with lots of information-not just a Simpsons disc (or 3 of them, even) but a whole SImpsons package!
The show itself however is not magnificent. Yes, if you are a fan of the Simpsons like myself, you will want it as it is the basis of the show ...

Advantages: longevity Disadvantages: not the best series
...fans out there. OK so the 1st series isn't the best/funniest one but still very watchable. This provided me with many laughs and is the DVD I watch the most out of my (small) collection.
If you haven't seen nmuch of the 1st Series then it may surprise you that the humour is very much different to current episodes. Think of the Flintstones a couply of millenia down the line and you'll pretty much be there!
My advice to all big fans of the show would ...

Advantages: Beginning of the Simpsons DVD collection Disadvantages: Earlier episodes suck!
When I heard that the Simpsons was coming to dvd I couldn't wait to get my hands on the first one. It is presented on 3 discs in a cardboard wallet type thing (as much as I hate dvds that come in cardboard this one isnt actually that bad). The DVD's contain all 13 of the season 1 episodes, including commentary by Matt Groening and some other people (writers, producers etc.) Special features include some scripts and story boards, there are a few outtakes ...
