Simpson-mania started, as did the huge wave of merchandising which is still with us today. Watching it on DVD reminds you of those halcyon days when it was broadcast on BBC 2 without adverts. And if you are a Virgin cable customer, your only choice nowadays is to watch Channel 4 for new episodes and then dive into the DVDs for the classic days of the show. <newline>[imgmc=0000091126.jpg|0000054627] <newline> <newline>Here[apost]s what we get on this set:- <newline>Beyond BlunderdomeHomer becomes a Hollywood consultant to Mel Gibson as they try to remake Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. <newline>Brother[apost]s Little HelperBart is diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder and prescribed "Focusin," a new drug which will improve his attention.
