A must have for anyone who loves the Simpsons. The first episode when they get Santa's Little Helper from the dogtrack is a classic. The first season isn't as good as later years, but it's good for it's time. I own this season, and watch it from time to time to compare with how the series grew, because it's somewhat caveman-ish (characters look kind of funny at times, and I don't know if Homer was played by a different voice, but he sure sounds funny on the first season) compared to what we see of the Simpsons now. But it's still one of the best cartoons, and Simpsons fans should love this first season along with subsequent seasons. It keeps getting better every season.
It took me a long time to finally watch this show my friend talked me into watching it and this show is awesome. The Simpsons have been around for decades and are still going I bet Matt Groening did not think that his show would last that long, by the time I get to season 30 they will be on season 50 lol. This is one of those shows that becomes a household name Most people have seen this awesome show, then there are people like me that know of it and have not watched it I have seen bits and pieces of it on TV but I don’t think I’ve seen a full episode until now. Matt Groening made a great and successful show and I hope he keeps it going. The characters are engaging, the animation is good and the stories are good in this Complete first season of the awesome show. Can you believe this came from a strip in another show called The Tracey Ullman Show. Can you believe that Matt made this show up on the spot cause he had to meet with some producers or someone and he did not want to pitch his one comic and now look at it. This is an awesome show and a great first season can’t wait to watch the rest. Here are the best episodes of this season. The characters are also based on his family which is cool 1. Simpsons Roasting On An Open Fire 2. Bart The Genius 3. Homer’s Odyssey 4. There’s No Disgrace Like Home 5. Bart The General 6. Moaning Lisa 7. The Call Of The Simpsons 8. The Telltale Head 9. Life On The Fast Lane 10. Homer’s Night Out 11. The Crepes Of Wrath 12. Krusty Gets Busted 13.

I don't think at this point anymore is there enough room in these reviews to truly capture what Simpsons has given to this world. But, like my title says, this is where it all began. (As far as TV series and DVDs of the Simpsons goes). The very first Season of the Simpsons set the bar extremely high for all other animated shows on DVD, with numerous behind the scene featurettes, commentaries, bonuses galore, and everything else any fan of the Simpsons could ever want. Without the Simpsons we would have no Family Guy, American Dad, or Southpark. This is a MUST BUY for any casual to diehard Simpsons fan. There is just one note about this season that all buyers should know: ---There is no "Play All Episodes" feature on this season (as well as Seasons 2-4). You have to manually go through each episode. This is mainly due to how old the DVD is, but it is a nuisant, but it is extremely worth it when you consider how hilarious these episodes are! Enjoy!Read full review
It's fun and amazing to go back to the first season of the FOX hit show, The Simpsons, and see why the first family of animation is still going strong today. Matt Groening's people have done an excellent job bringing the shows to DVD. The art on the first shows and some of the voices are a little different from what we have come to know and love. However, this is worth the purchase price just to have and watch occasionally. Includes the first Simpsons Christmas episode and the appearance of many of the beloved characters.
If you're a Simpson's fan, this is the collection to get. The first season features three DVDs, while the second and third seasons have 4. I love the fact that you can purchase the whole season in one great box set. Each disc features the options of watching all of the episodes or chosing which one you'd like to watch...in the event you have a special favorite one, or if you don't have time to watch the whole DVD. I grew up in the Simpsons era, as did my husband and we purchased this box set of sets (so to speak) because there is nothing like the originals! If you're a simpson's fan this is a must have collection...and if you look at e-bay listings you can pick them up at a steal!!
This old stuff is hilarious. I love the jokes and stories from the first season. The characters where not quite developed in personality yet but still belly laugh funny. My favorite episode is Homer's Night Out. Marge and the kids end up at the Rusty Barnacle where Homer happens to be at a bachelor Party in another room. Bart orders a squid platter with extra tentacles. Bart then starts nosing around the restaurant and finds Homer in another room dancing with a stripper at the Bachelor Party. Marge makes Homer take Bart until they find this stripper and apologize to her for what Marge feels is patronizing the stripper.It is a simple story made funny by brilliant writers and wonderful voice overs. The humor is well written and the start of something that has endured year after year. I bought it because I have seen reruns of it and knew I just had to have a DVD that I could watch and get a good laugh out of whenever I wanted.Read full review
There is no way I can draw this animation. The Simpsons cannot be copied.

The Simpsons Complete Season 1 DVD set is a great item or gift idea for any Simpson enthusiast. I have followed the t.v. series for years but have still not seen them all. This collection of episodes from the first season of the hit T.V. series is funny and entertaining. It also fills in alot of the blanks and questions you may have about some of the more recents episodes. After watching the first series I was amazed at how much the show has progressed over the years. The only complaint I have is that there is no real introdution episode where you really get to meet the Simpson family. The series starts with a christmas special and just throws you into the family's adventures giving you the same effect as if you were watching the 100th episode instead of the first. An odd beginning to such as successful series but none the less they are all great episodes and its not hard to get into the show.Read full review
I LOVE The Simpsons. They make jokes at an intellectual level which makes watching their seasons enjoyable because you have to pay attention and be well-read/etc to catch all the hilarity. This season, however, is not that great. The jokes are more-so directed at the fact that the family is white trash and I don't really find that, that funny. Homer almost kills himself, Lisa challenges the relevance of her existence, etc... It's depressing topics made farce, but not funny; There isn't much between-the-lines humor. I guess you could argue that for novelty reasons you may WANT this season... but the animation and jokes get better as the season progresses. There's no doubt about that.
