DVD Reviews of The Simpsons - The Complete Ninth Season
DVD Review: One seasen out of ten that you must have
Summary: 5 Stars
What else can be said about The Simpson, besides that from season one thru ten, they're just GREAT. So, this ninth season is really worthy for anyone.DVD Review: Pure genius.
Summary: 5 Stars
Season 9 is possibly the peak of The Simpsons. If you think new episodes are layered with many levels of humor, check out episodes from 10 years ago.DVD Review: Another box o'fun
Summary: 5 Stars
It'd be easy enough to praise the boxed set of The Simpsons - Season Nine if there were just the episodes themselves to consider. But as with previous seasons, there is a lot more to enjoy.
Let's start with the box itself: each of the four discs look like a mock LP, with such names as Cowabunga Records and Atomic Records (with three-eyed fish logo). Then there are the six postcards, each with different art, including parodies of the album covers for Abbey Road and Nevermind. The music theme continues in the program booklet which includes ads for a Disco Stu CD and King Toot's Music Store.
Then there are the episodes. I won't review them all, but a few of note include the season premiere episode, "The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson" which pokes fun at the Big Apple; this episode would be temporarily put out of circulation after 9/11 due to its depiction of the World Trade Center. In "Lisa's Sax", we learn how Lisa got her sax and Bart got his attitude. In "The Joy of Sect", the family joins a UFO cult. "Girly Edition" satirizes TV news when Bart's shallow human interest stories trump Lisa's fact-filled news. "Trash of the Titans" (the 200th episode) features Steve Martin and U2 and has Homer becoming Sanitation Commissioner; other guest stars this season include Jay Leno, Brendan Fraser, Martin Sheen, Joe Namath, Jim Varney, Helen Hunt, Bob Denver, Alex Trebek and Phil Hartman.
There's a reason that the Simpsons have lasted nearly 20 years, namely because it's so well-written. Even the so-so episodes are better than most comedies at their best. But this season has all good-to-great episodes, each with commentary. There are also plenty of deleted scenes and a few other extras. If you're a Simpsons fan, this set is a delight that you must own.
DVD Review: Simpsons Christmas Present
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this present for my husband a few days before Christmas and didn't use express shipping. I wasn't sure if it would come in time, but arrived on Christmas Eve. Thanks, he enjoyed the present and is now up to date on all the seasons.DVD Review: Simpsons DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this dvd set as a Christmas present. I know that the recipient has already watched the dvd and he didn't say anything, so I am assuming that it was in wonderfull condition. Thank you very much!
Description of The Simpsons - The Complete Ninth Season
The entire ninth season of the animated television show, The Simpsons.Genre: Television
Rating: NR
Release Date: 19-DEC-2006
Media Type: DVD
Season 9 is an important one in The Simpsons' run because, to many fans, it represents the top of the rainbow. At this point, the show is still at the top of its game, flinging clever jokes and social satire with such ease, especially compared to later seasons, that it's hard not to see this as the peak of its run, leaving open the question of whether or not subsequent seasons measure up. Be that as it may, there's hardly any question that the writing this season is among the series' best. This is the season that brought us "The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson," where Homer illegally parks his car in front of the World Trade Center, and heralds the introduction of Duff Man ("Oh Yeah!), "The Treehouse of Horror VIII," where Bart's body gets switched with that of a fly and Marge turns into a witch, and "The Trouble with Trillions," which finds Mr. Burns hiding a trillion dollar bill from the federal government. Apu gets plenty of face time in an excellent episode where he meets his bride ("The Two Mrs. Nahasapeemapetilons"), and the town's kids get their chance at some screen time when they all get stranded on an island together a la Lord of the Flies in "Das Bus" ("We'll be like Swiss Family Robinson, only with more cursing," proclaims Bart). Definitely the show is still going strong by this point, and the 25 episodes of this season should still delight fans who've stayed with it through the years, in addition to the hours of commentaries and special features that come standard with every season of The Simpsons. --Daniel Vancini
