The Simpsons: The Complete Twentieth Season

First, I am a huge fan of the Simpsons. The wrtiting teams of today leave a little to be desired from earlier seasons(about 11 and down). Regardless, I still think it's one of the better shows on network.

Second, I regret not reading the reviews on Amazon before impulsivly buying this in store just before Season 13 was released. As stated before, no, there are no commentaries or deleted scenes with this boxset. The previous seasons' commentaries included in previous boxsets were rather hilarious, and I was a little disappointed that these were not included for Season 20. Still the just released Season 13 included both basic special features and more. I believe Fox is trying to catch up by releasing boxsets from both ends of the series. It would be a good idea if they weren't cutting effort in one release just to hold off fans until the next season is released. One minor note, the "enviromental friendly" packaging now used in Simpsons/Futurama boxsets is somehow less annoying. The cardboard sleeves to store the DVDs seem to be much loose. The last Simpsons boxset that came with this packaging was insanely tight, causing dvds to easily get scratched removing them. This no longer seems to be the case. It's still the same container, just redesigned for convenient/less damaging storage.

Overall, if you're a fan of the later seasons and not too concerned for special features, this is a great buy. For other fans, you'll be disappointed in the lack of content for the price. Honestly, it seems fair for a bare-bones season for anything less than $25, just let it be known what is/isn't offered in the boxset.

No special features for the 20th season!!@! Really? You guys over there are a bunch of idiots and i'm glad people are rating this release so low.

I received this set as a gift for my birthday and was fairly excited about it because I knew they had switch to an HD format mid-season. I began watching it and, while I enjoyed the episodes, I was extremely disappointed by the complete and total lack of ANY extra features. If you purchase this set, you get the episodes and that is it. No commentary, no deleted scenes, no foreign language clips, nothing else at all. So, look at the price of this and unless it is on sale for around ten or fifteen dollars, don't purchase it because, if you are used to the season 1-12 DVD sets, YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED. I was.

Another great Simpson DVD; please ignore those that are more concerning with the packaging than the actual episodes.

is it just me? or this "fabulous" 20th season it's just a recap of old episodes??? can somebody tell me?? if it isn't I got f- over!! because I bought this 20th season on Walmart and I watched the whole thing and if I saw 2 episodes that I haven't seen before it's too much! the rest of the episodes are old episodes with "I guess" better quality! I love the simpsons! I don't know what happened with this season I hope they don't do the same with season 13th (which I can't wait to get my hands into)
