The Simpsons: Season 12
Everyone's favorite animatedly-hysterical, dysfunctional family, The Simpsons, returns with this outrageous season that brings the show to an even dozen (well, sorta even) in television years. All 21 episodes from season 12, including Treehouse of Horror XI," "Homer vs. Dignity," "Skinner's Sense of Snow," "Children of a Lesser Clod," and "Simpson Tall Tales" are featured in a 4-disc set.

When this show first came on the scene in the 80s it was the complete opposite of everything on television. It was the first prime time cartoon, and the (very) flawed characters were a sharp contrast to the perfect family units featured on every sitcom on every station. This is the series that started the ball rolling for less than perfect families that are now standard. The comedy is original but basic, and relies on some pretty base humour. Still, it's lasted over 20 years so they must be doing something right - or something wrong in the right way!Brilliant! - filmgeek
Say what you may about recent seasons losing their edge, any show that has lasted this long and affected pop culture this deeply deserves unending respect.
The voice-work and talent involved in the writing of this show were beyond compare for its time. It is due to the success of this series that we have 'South Park', 'Family Guy' or any number of animated sitcoms which appeal to adults as well as children (in fact, primarily to adults).
This series is highly recomended for nostalgia value alone, let alone the pleasure of an episode-to-episode basis.Fantastic - Somaphobic
The five stars are deserved in just eight short minutes of the first episode. Fans of The Simpsons and King Snorky will be unable to resist. Additionally, what other show in television history features a lovable oaf being sexually assaulted by a bull panda?
