This season features a new main title screen that is actually user friendly. No more having to click the select button ten zillion times (okay, maybe it was three times) to get to the main title screen
NCIS 1-7 after inserting the disk. The main screen show
The King of Queens 1-9 dvd up like normal. Also, I don't think you could do this on the 1st and 2nd season, but now you can play all episodes on the disk automatically without going back to the title screen. I hope the publishers keep this system for the fourth seasons and beyond.<p>You can read the other comments on the episodes, but this is must own for all Simpson's followers.
I was so excited to learn that Season 3 of The Simpsons was coming out on DVD! I already had the first two, and I especially loved the second season, but the third season is by far the best so far.
Smallville 1-9 box set Some of my favorite episodes ever are in this season. Some I really like are Radio Bart, Homer at the Bat, and Bart the Lover. Also, the season comes packed with special features like commentary and even
cheap Frasier 1-11 dvd set the Butterfinger commercials! There is not one thing not to like in this DVD. No Simpsons fan should be without it. A must-buy!
4 dvds, and some extras. It is the classic Simpsons in pristine form. What more can one ask for? You even have a PLAY ALL feature.
I'm the type of Simpsons viewer who pre-orders the DVD sets as
dvd Gilmore Girls 1-7 soon as they're available and then watches the release date on the calendar until the glorious day comes. This time around, I was particularly excited, as some of the best episodes ever come from season 3.<p>For the first two seasons, I went to my local mall DVD/video store, put down my deposit and then took another trip the day it came out. I did this so that I would get it the day it was released and not have to wait an extra few days for it to arrive in the mail. This time, I pre-ordered it from dvd and was pleasantly surprised to see that it didn't cost me any more (with super-saver shipping) and it inexplicably came in the mail the day after it was available in
Doctor Who season 1-5 stores! So I was really happy with this arrangement.<p>I was also really happy with the DVDs themselves. I always watch them first with the creator/director/producer/whatever commentary on first. With the first two seasons, I honestly never got around to watching the episodes without the commentary because the quality of the show had not reached its peak and the episodes come off as boring and pointless to watch, as they're shown in syndication all the
MASH 1-11 dvd time. This is not true with the third season. The episodes are a
OZ seasons 1-6 dvd pleasure to watch in their own right, particularly ones that aren't shown in syndication as much, like "I Married Marge" and "I Love Lisa."<p>Also,
complete 1-11 of MASH the commentary on season 3 is much more interesting, as I think the show's powers-that-be have finally gotten the commentary thing down. A new addition to the third season is commentary by Julie Kavner, Dan Castellanetta, and Nancy Cartwright, who sometimes break into their respective characters' voices (my favorite is Nancy Cartwright's "My water broke, man!" in Bart's voice), which is really interesting and cool. Their presence also let you in on little bits of trivia such as which exchanges between characters are ad-libs and which regular or guest star does the voice of the minor characters. They're also very honest in critiquing more recent episodes (in reference to the third season, someone says, "this was when the show was good") and explain some of the more obscure references, which is nice as well.<p>The little extras can be cute. The Butterfinger commercials are a little unnecessary (we've all seen them a million times or more) but the footage of the Bart balloon at the Macy's parade is really funny, reminiscent of the footage of the Simpsons' "appearances" at the Grammys from the second
OZ box set season DVDs.<p>So, now I'm eagerly awaiting the release of the legendary fourth season. If this pattern holds, they'll continue to improve and I will happily shell out the $40 every eight months or so for each
sale 1-6 of ###### and the City increment of my personal archive of this generation's best television show.
