| #3 Posted on 26.7.02 1529.23 Reposted on: 26.7.09 1534.40 | It's somewhere in the later third of this season (I'd say somewhere around the time that the ambulance crashed and dropped Homer back into Springfield Gorge), that the Simpsons became the truly brilliant series that it was during it's glory days. (And, to be fair, that it still shows the occasional signs of...)

I think the second season of the Simpsons is the best one. No bad episodes, and lots of funny quotes.

Probably about as good as me getting Oz on DVD (season 1) for about $40. Yay for eBay pre-sales, I guess. | Ubermonkeys

I'll hop back (back) on to the bandwagon when Season 3 comes out, yep.
...the Butterfinger commercials?!?! Seriously, guys. | OlFuzzyBastard

| #9 Posted on 27.7.02 0848.09 Reposted on: 27.7.09 0848.28 | "Bart The Daredevil" was the eighth episode of season 2 to air. Some of it was cut to make room for the "Do The Bartman" video premiere.
Can't wait for the commentaries, to me they were the best part of the Season 1 DVD. They said a lot of things that I didn't know about the episodes, especially, "Some Enchanted Evening."
