DVD Reviews of The Simpsons - The Complete Sixth Season
DVD Review: Yet another great season.
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this season along with seasons seven and eight, and while I had to reorder season eight because it contained two copies of the same disk, the other two were as they should be. So, incidentally, was the new copy of season eight once I reordered it. But I'll discuss the rest of those seasons in separate reviews since I actually came here to discuss the sixth season. This season is so far the only one I've received in the head-shaped packaging. After reading all the negative reviews where sometimes four stars were subtracted based on the package alone, I'll grant that I was nervous about buying them. But I was pleasantly surprised when I received it. The package was easy to open and yet closed securely and didn't fall apart. Nor did the disks, which are in a handy plastic holder with sections for each disk rather like pages in a photo album, fall out. And because I generally stack my DVD's on my entertainment center, the fact that the package doesn't stand welll on its side didn't matter.
So now that the packaging is out of the way let's get on to the season itself. Season six features some of my favorite episodes, not the least being Treehouse of Horror V, which features three of my favorite sketches. The Shinning, wherein homer goes crazy from lack of TV and beer and attempts to murder his family with an axe, Time and Punishment, which parodies the butterfly effect and the Ray Bradbury shortstory A Sound of Thunder, and Nightmare Cafeteria, wherein Bart and Lisa make a horrifying discovery at school. There's also Homer the Great, where Homer inadvertently becomes the leader of a secet society of beer-swilling good timers while being kicked out of said society for despoiling the sacred parchment. This episode features the ever so catchy Stonecutters theme song, which is one of my favorite Simpsons songs after Baby on Board. Other notables are Bart of Darkness, Lisa's Rival, and of course we can't forget the cliffhanger beginning to one of the most talked-about Simpsons episodes, part one of Who Shot Mr. Burns? If I'm not mistaken this aired not long before the famous King of the Hill cliffhanger when America spent all that spring and summer wondering who would survive the big Propane explosion at the end of season 2.
Aside from the episodes themselves, there is still of course the insightful and often hillarious audio commentary on each episode. And yes folks, these are probably the only features that are likely to matter to a blind Simpsons fan like myself. There are of course also deleted scenes and things like that, making this a set any Simpsons fan should have.

Description of The Simpsons - The Complete Sixth Season
"THE SIMPSONS" THE COMPLETE SIXTH SEASON DVD COLLECTION arrives on August 16, 2005 from Fox Home Entertainment. Showcasing all 25 episodes from the acclaimed sixth season, including Part One of the season cliffhanger "Who Shot Mr. Burns?,"The classic to clunker ratio is still extraordinarily high, though The Simpsons' sixth season could give some devoted viewers pause. The show that takes cheeky delight in mooning television convention gives us "Another Simpsons Clip Show" and its first season-ending cliffhanger, "Who Shot Mr. Burns?" And, as does Bart in "A Star Is Burns," we should all feel a little dirty at the "cheap cartoon crossover" appearance of Jay Sherman (Jon Lovitz), designed to give a boost to the ill-fated animated series The Critic. But this is just beard-stroking tongue-clucking regarding a season that delivered episodes that rank in the hallowed The Simpsons pantheon, among them, "Homer Badman," in which lust for a gummy Venus de Milo, peeled from the behind of an unwitting babysitter, makes Homer the object of feminist protest and tabloid TV fodder, and "Homer the Great," in which Homer is discovered to be the Chosen One to lead the secret society, "The Stonecutters" ("Who holds back the electric car/Who made Steve Guttenberg a star?/We do!"). Several episodes take their inspiration from classic films and books: Hitchcock's Rear Window ("Bart of Darkness"); Michael Crichton's Westworld and Jurassic Park ("Itchy and Scratchy Land"); and Stephen King and Ray Bradbury ("Treehouse of Horror V").
This season's roster of guest voices is also especially impressive, including Winona Ryder as "Lisa's Rival," Meryl Streep as Rev. Lovejoy's bad-seed daughter ("She's like a Milk Dud," a smitten Bart laments. "Sweet on the outside, poison on the inside"), the late Anne Bancroft in "Fear of Flying"; Patrick Stewart in "Homer the Great"; Mel Brooks and Susan Sarandon in "Homer vs. Patty and Selma," and Mandy Patinkin as Lisa's future fianc?e in the surprisingly moving "Lisa's Wedding." There has, of late, been a feud a-brewin' between fans of The Simpsons and Family Guy. Which show is funnier? Has The Simpsons lost it? Is Family Guy a Simpsons-wannabe? Hey; Can't we all just laugh along? Best to just marvel at another exemplary Simpsons season that, to quote Homer in "Lisa's Rival," delivers it all: "The terrifying lows, the dizzying highs, the creamy middles." --Donald Liebenson
