Originally a spin-off from a one-minute segment of The Tracy Ullman Show, The Simpsons morphed into the then-burgeoning FOX network's most successful program. As the longest running animated television show in history, and the longest running prime-time show of any type, The Simpsons is an American treasure - a combination of humor, wit, and satire that examines not just the lives of its eccentric characters, but also the society, culture, and world in which we live. Fun for adults and children alike, The Simpsons is a cutting edge television comedy that, like Seinfeld, changed the television landscape in the 1990's by creating a new genre of TV fun that spawned large network investments in new animated series such as King of the Hill, Futurama, and The Family Guy.

Like all new things which smash the paradigm of life, The Simpsons is unrivaled by its knockoffs, and the show doesn't show signs of slowing down. If you haven't yet visited Springfield, then I definitely recommend that you pick up The Simpsons DVD (Season 1) to catch a glimpse for yourself. You have no idea what you've been missing'

The Simpsons Season 4 DVD offers a number of hilarious episodes including the season premiere "Kamp Krusty" in which Bart forges his report card so that Homer and Marge will allow him to go to Kamp Krusty, a traditional summer camp for America's youth. But the summer camp is anything but traditional, and the kids soon learn as they're forced to make cheap wallets and perform other acts usually reserved for Third World foreign laborers. The kids endure until it's revealed that Krusty will not be visiting as promised, the news of which prompts Bart to spark an uprising' Other notable episodes from Season 4 include "Itchy & Scratchy: The Movie" in which Bart's punishment (that he can not see the new Itchy & Scratchy movie) threatens to drive him to the brink of insanity, and "Duffless" in which Homer's arrest for a DWI forces him to submit to a campaign of anti-drinking films and AA meetings (made all the worse by Marge's request that he quit drinking for one month)'
