"Can't make a hoe a housewife"
i can now watch the show in my free time instead of worrying over wasting my Dinsey plus subscription when i dont want to watch it on that day
yeah its great i got each season on ebay for £3.50 each sadly theres no blu ray version for the first 10 seasons tho. Which i do understand because the dvd sets were made in the mid 2000sThe DVD & Blu-Ray sets are 100% better than Disney+, especially because of the hilarious audio commentaries. Good job, man, on finding them all at once. Great find.
Actually, some of these were also made in the early 2000s.yeah its great i got each season on ebay for £3.50 each sadly theres no blu ray version for the first 10 seasons tho. Which i do understand because the dvd sets were made in the mid 2000s
Well, congratulations!i can now watch the show in my free time instead of worrying over wasting my Dinsey plus subscription when i dont want to watch it on that day
yeah the bottom sticker was easy to peel off. but the top right one not so muchLooking good lined up (though I believe 6 & 7 are facing the wrong way).
By the way, what's up with the big ugly stickers on S6? I don't think I've ever seen a DVD with that big of stickers on it. I hope they can be peeled off easily & the surface of the box cleaned (with some light rubbing alcohol) easily.

Yikes@benjovi2004 At least the marking is a close enough color. My copy of Season 9 (which I also got pre-owned) has markings as well but in her teeth and underneath the white it's silver.
u mean this?I also like the Season 9 cover (as well as the whole music theme, with a big plus for the neat music-referential postcards included, which I still have slotted in behind the booklet. Do your pre-owned copies have those, @benjovi2004 & @John95?).
I don't have any markings on my cover (maybe a given, seeing as mine was brand new when I got it), but there's a small 'The Simpsons Movie' sticker on the bottom corner below Lisa's head (promoting the sneak peek animatic included).
no i dont have thoseNo, That's the booklet. I'm talking about these (that should be included in the set):

Also for your other question, Region 2 DVDs tend to have a slightly higher pitch (sped up by 2% I believe), which is natural. Many later DVDs do have a pitch correction thing going on, I believe.
Region 2 DVDs speeds up because it is in the PAL format, not NTSC format like in Region 1 DVDs. Region 4 DVDs are also that way as well. Also, it actually speeds up by 4%, which may cause the pitch to be higher (usually, if the master is on film, not on videotape). The frames per second is 25 in the PAL format, compared to 24 frames per second in the NTSC format.No, That's the booklet. I'm talking about these (that should be included in the set):

to be fair it annoyed me at first but iv already got used to it and besides because im gonna use the dvd sets from now on al not realise that its differentRegion 2 DVDs speeds up because it is in the PAL format, not NTSC format like in Region 1 DVDs.

Season 2 is the only DVD that plays in the NTSC pitch, despite being sped up by 4%, for unknown reasons. Also, please be sure that your UK DVDs are not exactly the same as US DVDs, as some of the audio in the audio commentaries may be cut to avoid a higher rating or any other reason.

I have also read about the censorship of this part as well on the Simpsons Wiki.@AubreetheSimpson, I seem to mostly having read PAL speedup being just a couple of percent, but 4% makes sense as the media in question tend to be around 2 minutes shorter in PAL (also, while NTSC play at the correct pitch, PAL usually tend to enjoy a noticeably increased picture quality with the speedup. And to be honest, when I watch PAL media, the pitch difference has never really bothered me even when I can heard a difference. It's still the same show, movie, etc.; I'm not especially picky with these things).
I think the only censorship I've read of is an edit in the 'Simpson & Delilah' commentary (I think it was) to remove a sex-related reference, but I haven't heard of more censorship being done in the commentaries. Would like to hear of more censorship edits being done in the R2 releases (which I imagine can't be that many, or I'd hear about it a lot).
