 The Simpsons 10th Season Sep 11, 2009
Great. Got these for my brother-in-law as a Christmas gift. He loves watching them with his four sons who are now into them.

 Some would say it's the pinnacle; others would say we're about halfway down Sep 03, 2009
I would say this is a great season and, unbelievably, my cartoon-averse wife would swiftly concur. I've never heard her laugh so hard when it's my turn to pick the evening's viewing.
Many episodes are treacle for fans of cerebral cartoon comedy. "Homer to the Max" guarantees Homer fans immense satisfaction, as does the ridiculously hilarious "Lard of the Dance", where Homer actually attempts to make a living out of selling used grease, and takes Bart out of school to assist in the venture. Side-splitting stuff.
"Mayored to the Mob" is another highlight. Firstly, there's the bit in Mayor Quimby's limo where Quimby is taking time to advise Homer to accord himself with the sense of duty and respect demanded by employment with the mayor's office, only to then instruct him to honk at a scantilly clad lady walking down the street (Quimby: I couldn't be happier with how that went!)
And then later, when it's revealed that Fat Tony has been milking rats to honour his contract to supply Springfield Elementary's milk, he says: "I don't get it. Everybody loves the rats, so why not the rats' milk?"
Of course, Season 10 is a season for Mike Scully fans (Scully being one of the show's big-wigs), and so, as a fan, I'm a little biased.
And, most importantly, Season 10 is an honourable effort from a cast and crew reeling from the recent tragedy of Phil Hartman's death...and with it, the death of Troy McLure and Lionel Hutz.

Greatest Show of All Time Apr 29, 2009
I have this set, as well as every other set. The simpson's is the greatest show of all time. I love watching these.... every episode is a classic. I recommend this show to all people 10 years of age and up.

Good, But Not Great Apr 01, 2009
I own seasons 6,7,8,9 and 10 and 10 is easily my least favorite. The first four are amazing seasons and have watched each at 2-3 times. I finished watching season 10 a few days ago and I am not impressed like the others.
The story focus is significantly altered in season 10 and involves mainly Homer and his stupid antics (much like the new ones) instead of stories that significantly include everyone in the family. The episodes' narratives seem much lazier than past seasons and feature amazing variety of characters less.
I still enjoyed the set since I am a big Simpsons fan but much less than the ones I already own. If you are new to the sets I would go with any from 6-9 before moving on to 10+.

Season 10 Feb 02, 2009
Even after 9 previous seasons, Season 10 is still fresh and absolutely funny. I actually think that the writing in these episodes is better than previous seasons. The characters you have grown to know have strong characteristics and mannerisms that allow for hilarious situations. I highly suggest this season.
