America's first family of dysfunction, the Simpsons, appear in all their depraved glory in this wonderful DVD compilation of their show's premiere season. Fans accustomed to the slick appearance of the later episodes will be delighted by the rougher nature of these earlier episodes, when the characters weren't as well defined (Homer isn't quite as dumb as he is in later seasons) and the animation was still evolving. This only adds to the charm of these 13 episodes, which begin with "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire," the December 1989 Christmas special in which a down-and-out Simpson family adopt Santa's Little Helper. Throughout the season, familiar faces are introduced, as we catch first glimpses of Smithers, Mr. Burns, the Flanderses, and Patty and Selma. Highlights of the season include "The Crepes of Wrath," in which Bart is sent to France as an exchange student ("Don't mess up France the way you messed up your room"); "Bart the Genius," in which Bart ends up in a school for the gifted; and "Krusty Gets Busted," in which Bart's lifelong animosity with Sideshow Bob begins. --Jenny Brown

Rating:  - Where it all began...
Ok, so this isn't actually where the Simpsons had their beginning. Anyone who really knows about them will know that they were first introduced to America on the Tracy Ulman show. They were so successful however, that they soon had their own cartoon.
For the record I'll say that I never saw the Tracy Ulman shorts. But I was there from the very first season to now, and while I'll freely admit that much of the clasic humor is gone from the series I still very much enjoy watching it. That said ... Read More

I start my review this way because The Simpsons is approching Season 20 as I write this review. And only in the last several years has the show started to show serious signs of age!I am 28 now and this is a Simpson season I fondly remember one of my fathers' co-workers dubbing off of cable for us because we didn't have it;it was on right before "Married With Children" at the time if I recall. I cannot watch this season without images of "Don't Have A Cow Man" T-Shirts and even McDonalds offering ... Read More

This was to be a gift - I returned my order and the replacement order to Amazon because neither had the book with the set. I obtained this product from another source and received everything Amazon's picture shows - including the BOOK. The person to whom this was a gift is an avid Simpsons fan and the book was important to her.
Rating:  - America's first family
I haven't watched "The Simpsons," America's favorite dysfunctional family, for many years, but I'm looking forward to catching up on the episodes I've missed as I work my way trough these DVD releases. In my opinion, the show really picked up steam in its second season, but there are certainly plenty of laughs in the premier season as well. Aside from being an incisive satire of modern America life and pop culture, it also succeeds in walking a very fine line: however irrationally and selfishly the ... Read More

I sent it back as soon as I got it. It was missing the booklet that comes with the package. That is just as important to me as the dvd's. I may seek out a different source in the future.
