[.ca] The Simpsons: Treehouse of Horror

From Amazon.com:
If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Stephen King, Ray Bradbury, 2001, Harry Potter, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and Tron should consider themselves wildly flattered as they get the inimitable Simpsons skewering in this shockingly funny collection of four mostly classic "Treehouse of Horror" episodes. Best is "V," in which no TV and no beer make Homer go crazy in "The Shinning" ("You mean 'The Shining,'" Bart corrects. "Shh, you want to get sued?" Homer reprimands him). "VI" contains the ambitious, computer-animated "Homer3." "VII" features aliens Kang and Hados's finest quarter half-hour as they assume the identities of Bill Clinton and Bob Dole. "XII" boasts the star power of Pierce Brosnan as the voice of a mechanized house that falls in love with Marge and lures Homer to his apparent death with "unexplained bacon." For Halloween and beyond, this crypt-kicking collection is all screamingly funny treats. --Donald Liebenson

Treehouse of Humor:
Good stuff. Most of the episodes are excellent. As for the editorial review for Amazon, however, the guy mistakenly says that Homer says, "Shh... do you want to get sued?" when it is actually Groundskeeper Willie who says this. Anyhow, definitely a good buy!

Throw us a bone Matt:
Good DVD don't get me wrong, but come on Matt Greonig or who ever has the pull with these DVD releases. Is it too much to ask for a Complete Treehouse of Horror Set?. It doesn't have to necessarily be the entire run thus far, how bout atleast a volume 1 release that contains treehouse 1-10 that would be fantastic. We all know the shear greed of these companies looking for ways to double dip, heck triple dip some of these DVD's, why for the life of me do you put out bart's favourites, or these horrible 4 non relevant to one another episode discs knowing that they're fated for the bargain bins at the walmarts and kmarts. For crying out loud the fans want complete sets of these episodes and we have the money to want to shell out for them...don't you want to supply the demand?

Great collection of Halloween episodes:

If you don`t have the dvds buy it.

Great DVD:
If you are a true simpsons fan you should uy this DVD. It is hilarious, especially at the end of Homer3 when he comes to our world, crawls out of a dumpster, and says, "Oh, this is the worst one yet" I won't tell you how he got there because that would give the plot away. Anyway, you should definintley buy this DVD, especially since it has episodes that come from seasons that aren't out yet, unlike "Christmas with the Simpsons".

A wise selection of episodes...:
Unlike the Simpsons' Christmas DVD, which featured a few episodes that had little to do with Christmas, this is a great selection of episodes. Fox used their brains on this one a little bit: it was released a few months after season three was distributed, which meant season four was on the way, so their selections were chosen from seasons 5-8 (season eight was the last truly GREAT season). Since season five probably won't be available until spring/summer of next year, this would be a great investment. Not only is it relatively cheap, but you can take comfort in the fact that you own every great Treehouse of Horror episode. No matter what was going on in the world of television for the past fifteen years, the Simpsons was always the achilles heel of critics and TV lovers. It's been the most popular show on television since 1990 and even the non-conformists can't deny it's entertainment value. That's gotta count for something. Get the boxed sets first, of course. But after that, go nuts with this one.
