Editorial Reviews: Amazon.co.uk Reviews The argument will rage long after the boxset of IThe Simpsons: Season Nine/I has been released about when exactly America's finest television animated export actually peaked. Some arguably, with genuine gusto, that it was a year or two before this series was first shown. Most purists though satisfy themselves that it's the single digit seasons where the best of IThe Simpsons/I, and there's certainly plenty of gold in this latest set. P Boasting twenty five episodes in all, and backed up by the superb selection of extras we've come to expect from ISimpsons/I boxsets, there are some terrific episodes to be found. The 200th episode of the show, for instance, "Trash Of The Titans" makes compelling viewing out of, literally, sanitation, while "The City Of New York vs Homer Simpson" is likewise outstanding, as Homer trots off to recover his car. P Truth be told, for this reviewer's money, IThe Simpsons: Season Nine/I isn't the equal of the two boxsets that preceded it, and it certainly has its fair share of easily forgettable episodes. But these are still in the minority, with the bulk of this set being as representative of the great writing, humour and wry observations we've come to expect from IThe Simpsons/I. Cracking value for money, too.--ISimon Brew/I

"not for a while") br /there's also of course the u2 guest appearance (where they're outdone by steve "you're screwed, goodnight" martin - as per moe, he's not really one for speeches). also worth a mention is the krusty ep, just love the way his hair comes free of its binds every time the ad guys mention the word free. he might be talking the bill hicks style talk but in the end he can't walk the walk, ensuring one of the more memorable closing sequences in praise of the 'canyonero'. another fave moment, one that for me encapsulates homer perfectly, try the $trillion ep where he pauses in his rescue of burns to place a prone agent's hand on his colleague's ahem, posterior br /so to the bad points. first a minor quibble: no self-respecting scotsman i know would ever use the 's' word - it's football or nothing. i doubt then that groundskeeper willie or any of his compadres would either. br /the second is slightly more serious. yes, this is the one; the all-singing, all-dancing nightmare episode. usually i tolerate the songs in the simpsons cos i know they'll be over soon but a whole damned EPISODE of them is too much to bear. this is one episode that will never sully my screen. br /the rest will of course, often too One of the best seasons. December 9, 2006 Mail-order Christ (Brighton, England.) 7 out of 14 found this review helpful I hope (and expect, since they are full seasons after all) that the first episode of the series, 'The City Of New York Vs Homer Simpson', will be included as that episode's rarity is worth buying the whole season. It was never shown on terrestrial television, as it was to air just a week or so after the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the episode sees Homer entering the World Trade Centre. They also edited out part of 'Lisa The Simpson', when the family are watching a program called 'When Buildings Collapse', and Bart consequently states "My favourite part was when the buildings collapsed". If these are edited out in any way, especially since these happened long before the event took place, then this is not worth the money even for the excellent episodes like 'The Trouble With Trillions', 'This Little Wiggy' and 'Girly Edition', along with the not-so-great 'Principle And The Pauper' which is almost completely forgotten about afterwards (apart from an episode in season 15 or something where Lisa's cats keep dying). Overall though, an excellent season, but not one you should buy if the aforementioned 9/11 similarities are excluded out of political correctness. br / br /UPDATE: The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson was finally broadcast on Channel 4 in 2007. The Simpsons Complete Ninth Season- One of the Best So Far November 5, 2006 Chewy (The North, UK) 9 out of 19 found this review helpful One of the best seasons on The Simpsons so far, although not upto the same standard as seasons like 6, 7 and 8.

A definite purchase for any die-hard, avid or devoted Simpsons collector or fan. the simpsons are back with another season February 1, 2007 unlucky lucky (West Yorkshire, England) 11 out of 28 found this review helpful Season 8 i think is the best but 9 is pretty great too. my faves are lisa the simpson, where she thinks she got the simpson gene of becoming dumb br /marge: wake up honey ive got great news. br /Lisa: im adopted. br /Marge: even better. br /and lost our lisa which has some of my fave lines. Lisa wants to go to the museum but after bart glue novelties on his face marge takes bart to hospital leaving lisa to con homer into letting her ride the bus. br /Homer: Feeling stupid i know i am. br / br /while breaking into the museum br /Homer:Can you open the window honey, the cops have daddy's prints on file.
