Amazon.com: One of the hallmark seasons of The Simpsons, season 7 features some of the strongest episodes produced during the show’s run. Considering that this is The Simpsons we’re talking about here, that’s saying a lot, but this collection deserves the accolades.
Broadcast in 1995, season seven features several signature episodes, including Part II of "Who Shot Mr. Burns," "Bart Sells His Soul," and "Two Bad Neighbors" where former President George Herbert Walker Bush moves into the neighborhood (an episode gamely playing on the former President’s open dislike for the show). One of The Simpsons’s most definitive episodes, "Treehouse of Horror VI" famously broke the third wall by using the then-groundbreaking CGI technology to render Homer first in a 3-D world, then in real life, (despite the evolution in his form, he naturally ends up in an erotic cake shop). As the producers openly note on the commentary, it was a big deal at the time, and super expensive, which is why they could only do a few minutes of footage in CGI (some fans will particularly enjoy the revealing commentary on this one, as the producers explain the many visual puns and math jokes appearing in the background of the 3-D world). It’s a great example of how The Simpsons continued to play with its visual style and take creative risks years into its run. In fact, one of the best episodes on this collection, "The Simpsons 138th Episode Spectacular" proves just how far the look and style of the show really came during that time. Hosted by actor Troy McClure (voiced by the late comic great Phil Hartman), it presents never-before-seen outtakes and original footage from the show’s debut days on The Tracey Ullman Show, while taking a few self-referential digs at show creators Matt Groening, James Brooks, and Sam Simon. Other gems include "Homerpalooza" where Homer thanks guests The Smashing Pumpkins for their gloomy music because it has made his kids "stop wishing for a future I can’t possibly provide," and "Bart the Fink" where Bart inadvertently gets Krusty the Klown busted for tax "avoision."
Along with the 25 episodes there are extensive commentaries, featurettes, and deleted scenes all of which add immense value to the set and will give die-hard fans another excuse to spend more hours in front of the TV. It’s another benchmark collection from a show that, up to this point, doesn’t seem to know its own limits. --Dan Vancini
Another great season of the Simpsons! Boy does this season of The Simpsons bring back memories. Back then I would always watch new episodes every Sunday night, but now... (you know what the quality of the series has become now lately). Season 7 has some of my favorite episodes of all time like the Radioactive Man Movie episode, "The Day The Violence Died", "Lisa The Vegetarian", "King Size Homer", "Summer of 4 ft. 2", "Bart On The Road", and many more. If you are a Simpsons fan or if you are too young to have seen these episodes when they were first run then you oughta get this DVD set.
Simpsons 7 A lot has already been said. Mostly I just wanted to add my positive rating to this seasons show. Very funny cartoon with adult humor. You decide if the kids should watch. Most of the jokes should be over their head, but they will laugh at the silly antics. This is a great box set that stores well. You want to laugh, you've come to the right place! Be sure to check out the first couple of seasons. They are fantastic!
Seventh Season is Great This is perhaps my favorite season of The Simpsons. It's definitely worth owning, but every other season is too.
The Complete Seventh Season Great dvd - as are all the Simpsons. Not for the kids, but has some great comentaries on our society. While all are pretty funny, once in a while I have to say "That writer is a genious. Like 'Lee Harvey Oswald killed John Kennedy to get the Jack Ruby'?"
The Best Season In My Books I've been an avid Simpsons viewer for years, and out of all of the episodes I have seen, Season 7 has some of the funniest and most creative episodes. The season aired from the fall of 1995 to the spring of 1996, and it brought a whole bunch of new things to the table.
In Season 7, we witness some of the craziest things the yellow skinned family has done. It starts where Season 6 left off, when they discover who shot Mr. Burns. Lisa begins her vegetarian lifestyle, Homer gains a bunch of weight to get himself some worker's compensation, former President George H.W. Bush moves next door to the family, Bart and Lisa discover some shocking truths around the town, Milhouse gains the role of Fallout Boy, and Bart gets a fake I.D. at his visit to the DMV. Each episode has plenty of laughs and memorable moments. Highly recommended.
