Simpsons seasons 1 - 20 disc set
Posted: Tue Oct 08, 2019 8:29 pm
Here is some information that was release on an exclusive seasons 1 - 20 disc set for the Simpsons. All the discs are DVD and the discs will only be sold at Amazon and Best Buy. I already have all the simpsons seasons 1 -20 so it's not worth it for me to purchase it. The fact that it is only DVD is also disheartening.
Now them, the other big piece of news today is that 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment has just announced that they’re releasing a massive limited edition 79-disc/441-episode DVD box set, The Simpsons: The Complete Seasons 1-20, on 12/3. Only 1000 units will be available, half of which will be distributed to Amazon while the others will go to Best Buy. The SRP on Amazon is (or was, it seems to be unavailable at the moment) was $499.98. There’s no exclusive content in the set, so it’s reasonable to assume it just collects all of the previously released DVDs. Here’s what the packaging looks like (with an Amazon link)...
The Simpsons: The Complete Seasons 1-20 (DVD Box set Limited Edition)
Now, people have asked: Why DVD? Keep in mind that Seasons 1-12 of the show are only available in SD (in the original 1.33:1 aspect ratio). Seasons 12-17 plus 20 have been released in Blu-ray too at the 1.78:1 aspect ratio. So it’s complicated. They can’t really do a full BD box set of Seasons 1-20, and to add the BDs of Seasons 12-17 and 20 to this set would increase the expensive even more. So DVD is what we get.
