Simpsons is quite simply the best adult cartoon around. I do like Southpark but this is in a different league.
This is the first series with the original Homer voice.
If you haven't seen the originals you will enjoy this. Great fun and definitely worth watching !

From practically the first episode, broadcast in 1989, The Simpsons impacted on planet TV like a giant multi-coloured meteor. With a claim to being the defining pop cultural phenomenon of the 1990s--hip, fast, sharp and primary--there was nothing even in rock & roll to match this. The Simpsons is possibly the greatest sitcom ever made. Although the animation was initially primitive, never before had cartoon characters been so well drawn. There had been loveable middle-aged layabouts on TV before, but Homer Simpson successfully stole their crown and out-slobbed them all in every department ("The guys at the plant are gonna have a field day with this," he grumbles in "Call of The Simpsons" as he watches scientists on a TV news item who can't decide whether he is incredibly dense or a brilliant beast). However, in this first series he isn't quite yet the bloated man-child he would become in later series; instead he's a growling patriarch with a Walter Matthau-type voice. His sensible half Marge's croak, meanwhile, has yet to settle down, while the vast cast of minor Springfield characters have yet to find their place. Bart, however, was a smash from the start: dumb as Homer but spiky-haired and resourceful, he sets out his manifesto in "Bart the Genius"; while "Moaning Lisa" spotlights his over-achieving sister and is a good early example of the series' clever handling of melancholy bass notes.
Throughout its life there's always been confusion as to whether The Simpsons is a show for kids or adults, but with allusions in these first 13 episodes to Kubrick, Diane Arbus, Citizen Kane and (in a very satisfyingly anti-French episode) Manon des Sources, it should already have been clear that this was a programme for all ages and all IQs from 0 to 200. Dysfunctional they may have been, but the Simpsons stuck together, and audiences stuck with them into the 21st century.

This is the first of 19 wonderful series so far and I have to say, all of them have left me speechless. Matt Groening is a genius! This is one of the must have DVDs along with all the other series! Wonderful to watch and a bundle of laughs, Matt Groening how do you do it?

I bought this item for my 9 year old son who loves the Simpsons. It is always better value to buy boxed sets and this one was just as good and enjoyable as the previous ones purchased. The boxed sets come with 3 or 4 DVDs neatly placed in a folding case which then slide into the outer cover, this is neat and compact so as not to take up much storage space, and it is easy enough for my son to do on his own without breaking the case, the DVDs are also very easy to use, with nice clear instructions on screen to indicate what to do next,so again very good for my son.

I have watched the television series and the humour I think is aimed over the kids heads and more at adults This therefore made me want to be able to watch whenever I wanted. The DVD is brilliant

I disliked the fact that i was told the dvd i would be buying was new, on ebay policy it says you can only describe your product as new when it has been unopened and unused. The product that got sent to me was open and used and damanged. I opened a dispute with paypal as the seller refused to offer me a refund. Paypal have failed to reply to me regarding this dispute.

The old ones are the best! This DVD set has all 13 original episodes over 3 discs and has some unaired scenes on the special features. I loved it! The only thing I think this DVD set needs is a 'play all' feature because you have to select each episode individually. I'm just lazy though! If you're a Simpsons fan then this is a great DVD set to have.
