The Simpsons – Season 5
DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:
Season 5 saw the departure of a few good writers, leaving big shoes to fill for the newcomers that did a great job holding their own. Conan O’ Brien Produced some of this season as well as last season before he got his own late night show and had to leave. He does, however make a cameo appearance in “Bart gets Famous”. A little FYI for ya! This season contains 22 episodes and won the Annie Award for Best Animated Television Production, Environmental Media Award for Best Television Episodic Comedy, and a Genesis Award for Best Television Comedy Series with 4 Emmy nominations as well.
This season has more episodes (great ones too) based on Homer. Episodes such as “Deep Space Homer” Homer Simpson an astronaut!?… Why not! Add it to his long listed resume of jobs. “Homer the Vigilante” A crime spree hits Springfield with dozens of burglaries by the cat burglar. This causes Flanders to form a meeting to organize a neighborhood watch and of course, Homer ends up the leader of the group with the power going to his head. “Homer goes to College” Yup, Homer gets to live up the party frat guy life! or so he thinks as he has been influenced a bit too much by college party movies. “Secrets to a Successful Marriage” Homer a teacher for a successful marriage class? Oh the things we’ll learn! There are a few more, but it’s clear to see that Homer is main dude now which I have absolutely no problem with! I love Homer!
Special features contain commentaries for all episodes, audio outtakes, original sketches, deleted scenes, commercials featuring The Simpsons, animation showcases, “A Look Back” featurette with James L. Brooks, and an introduction by Matt Groening. This season is great for Homer fans especially. It will have you shouting “Whoo-Hooo!” Well it did for me! If you get this, enjoy your Simpsons season 5 set! Mmmmm….. Siiiiimpsons!
