Simpsons season 2-4 (self.thesimpsons)
submitted 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) by cupcakezealot to c/thesimpsons@lemmy.world

I'm currently taking all my old Simpsons DVDs and ahem backing them up to my computer and I'd forgotten how good the early season DVD commentaries were and it really made me think how much we lost when DVDs stopped becoming mainstream.

When you heard "Hi I'm Al Jean.. and I'm Mike Reiss", you knew you were going to get a good commentary.

Also the fact that we'll never get John Swartzwelder on an actual commentary.

The Simpsons commentary tracks were always amazing. (Honestly Family Guy were as well.)

I hope someday they end up on Disney+ or wherever. I love watching classic episodes and would love to again with commentary.

I believe Family Guy season one was one of the first DVDs I got in the mail from Netflix (you see, kids, in the ancient days Netflix sent DVDs by mail to watch at home).

didn't raise the rates twice a year or whatever they're doing these days.. they sat on your returns an extra day and mailed your new ones from across the country to slow you down.

Welcome to TheSimpsons, a community for discussing everything related to America's non-prehistoric cartoon family, The Simpsons!

Right about now, you're probably saying, "Troy, basically every post starts with 'Guess the Episode', is that all this community is?"

To which I say you've got some attitude, mister.

But no, any Simpsons content is allowed in this community, although we do ask that you keep the shitposting over in !simpsonsshitposting@sh.itjust.works.

Guess the Episode "Rules"

These "Rules" aren't real, so if you think of something clever, do that instead.
