The Simpsons: Season 9

Here is another 25 episode season of The Simpsons that won 3 Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Animated Program, Outstanding Voice-Over Performance, and the Outstanding Music and Lyrics award. This season also had a few more Emmy nominations as well as nominations from the Saturn Awards and the Golden Reel Awards.Notable episodes from this stellar season contain such favorites as "Simpson Tide" Where Homer joins the Navy after losing his job. Homer takes command of a sub and gets into some hot water. "Das Bus" The school kids are on a field trip and are in a tragic accident that leaves them stranded on an island. "Natural Born Kissers" Homer and Marge spice up the bedroom by taking the bedroom out in public places! Works great until they get caught. "Bart Carney" Homer and Bart become carnies and get scammed by the very same carnies that took them under their wing. "Miracle on Evergreen Terrace" The Cristmas episode in where Bart wakes up early to open gifts early. He gets what he wants which was a toy firetruck which he ironically sets the tree on fire along with everyones gifts. Bart then decides to get rid of the evidence and create a false story of a burglarer stealing Christmas. "The Cartridge Family" (One of my personal favorites) Homer buys a gun for protecting his family. Unfortunately, Homer isn't the best person to own a gun and it drives the family away.Great season to own! Although this does have a few of my top favorite Simpson episodes, it does have the one episode of the SImpsons that I don't like. "All Singing, All Dancing" is my least favorite episode. It's basically a clip show, but of all the musical scenes in the Simpsons rolled into one episode. This is the only one I personally skip ahead. Other than that, Season 9 of The Simpsons is a great addition to any collection.

I bought this season 9 box via amazon.com although i am living in Berlin, Germany, because it will be out i Europe later and the original voices. In my opinion season 9 includes many treasures of the 18 (ok, season 18 is still running) Simpsons seasons: Recently the episode "The city of New York vs. Homer Simpson" was voted number 1 episode out seasons 1-16 in Germany.Do You remember "Fly vs. Fly" taken from the fabulous Treehouse of Horror episode of this season - that is one of the best horror stories, or Homer using the teleport device to pee or get beer from the couch? Also great: The Cartridge Family, when Homer waits for his revolver and all the shootable "objects" appear, i like Patty and Selma best. The Simpsons loose their home in Bart Carny and Homer has to get it back with his frisbee skills, the joy of sect shows a taste of simp-entology, "das bus" sends the kids into the wilderness and Moe finally finds his big love (Helen Hunt). Take a good look at the male Simpsons in "Lisa the Simpson", especially their jobs. Don't miss the trillion dollar episode, Krusty's porn collection, and all the places Homer and Mage make love in the final episode of this great season.This box includes the following episodes:9- 1 4F22 The City Of New York vs. Homer Simpson9- 2 4F23 The Principal And The Pauper9- 3 3G02 Lisa's Sax9- 4 5F02 Treehouse Of Horror VIII9- 5 5F01 The Cartridge Family9- 6 5F03 Bart Star9- 7 5F04 The Two Mrs. Nahasapeemapetilons9- 8 5F05 Lisa The Skeptic9- 9 5F06 Realty Bites9-10 5F07 Miracle On Evergreen Terrace9-11 5F24 All Singing, All Dancing9-12 5F08 Bart Carny9-13 5F23 The Joy Of Sect9-14 5F11 Das Bus9-15 5F10 The Last Temptation of Krust9-16 5F12 Dumbbell Indemnity9-17 4F24 Lisa The Simpson9-18 5F13 This Little Wiggy9-19 3G04 Simpson Tide9-20 5F14 The Trouble With Trillions9-21 5F15 Girly Edition9-22 5F09 Trash Of The Titans9-23 5F16 King Of The Hill9-24 5F17 Lost Our Lisa9-25 5F18 Natural Born Kissers

I don't really have much to say because this season speaks volumes on it's own. If you have made it this far with your collection of Simpsons dvds you already know what you are getting...great, quality entertainment without the commercials and other fillers you would have to deal with trying to watch it on regular TV. For me, this will be my last dvd for The Simpsons (I have seasons 1-9) because I feel like the quality starts to slowly go downhill from season 10 on out. Even though this will be my last, it's a great dvd to end with. Most of what I could say has already been reviewed by others but if you like U2, meeting Homer's side of the family (learning about "The Simpson gene" that affects the male Simpsons), the kids being washed ashore on a deserted island (aka. The Lord of the Flies spin-off), and other well thought out masterpieces then this is the dvd for you!
