    what season will be your final purchase

    what will the last season you buy be? i seriously doubt anyone here will buy every season of the show, give or take a couple members (You know who you are). hell, some people have already stopped at 10/11 i think.

    i'm probably going to stop after season 19. I'm definitely getting 14-16, and i haven't seen 17-18 in a while. and for some reason i really enjoyed season 19. i don't plan on getting 20+, but i may rent them sometime to see if the bonus features are any good (and i mean, there are some episodes from these seasons i enjoy).

    so, when is your stopping point going to be? or have you already stopped buying the dvds?

    I'm just gonna get 'em all, I want to complete the collection. I might watch the season 56 DVD in the very distant future.

    Unless the next 3 seasons are completely awful/unwatchable(to me even), or they take soooooooo long to be released that no one even uses DVD anymore, and assuming they stop at 25 seasons? All 25.

    Well I'm kind of joking. I doubt I will buy seasons 16 and 17. Maybe 17...

    EDIT: You know what, nevermind. I probably will buy those just for the sake of collecting them.

    you can buy any season you want, i was just kinda surprised that there are more people willing to buy every season of the show then i thought.

    I might watch the season 56 DVD in the very distant future.
    do it, i hear the commentaries for this season are very informative

    or they take soooooooo long to be released that no one even uses DVD anymore

    I'm totally serious though. For as bad as the last 6(ish) seasons are considered by most I still enjoy them more than enough to buy the dvds.

    This is actually my first year with a Blu-Ray, and I'm just not bothering with the non-HD seasons.

    Oh I suspect I will eventually, but I don't see the point at the moment as I don't even have an hd tv....the only seasons I would get on blu-ray are 20 plus anyway though, unless they stop making dvd editions before they even get to 20's re-release.

    Currently, I own seasons one through ten, and then twelve. For a long time I refused to buy season eleven because of how awful I think it is. Season eleven is no doubt the worst Scully season if you ask me. However, while I still feel that same way, I'm thinking about buying season eleven. Simply for the fact that I've watched all the seasons I own so many times, I'm craving to watch different episodes on DVD that I haven't seen in a long time. So maybe when I get enough money I'll finally buy it. I highly highly doubt I'll change my opinion; it'll be more just for entertainment purposes rather than actual care in the show.

    Anyways, I think season fourteen might be my last purchase. I don't remember much about it though...season fifteen is a bad bad season, don't remember much about sixteen....Well, I still need to buy season thirteen. Who knows, after I buy thirteen and fourteen, I might be done with buying 'em.

    I'm going up to season 15, as I believe the show ends after 'Simple Simpson'. I might get season 16 if I grow restless from some kind of Simpson DVD buyers withdrawl.


    Seasons 1-9 - Classic era
    10-12 - Scully era
    13-16 - Silver age
    16.5 - Into the abyss
    17 - The shit abyss
    18-24 - Zombie Simpsons

    Well I still have to get more classic seasons on dvd first. Then I'll probably get one or some of the Scully seasons, and most of the early-Jean seasons. I'll probably stop at 15 though. Maybe 16 at a strech.

    15/16.

    But I have no interest in purchasing 11, 12, 13, or 14, or anything after 16.

    I stopped buying the Seasons NEW at Season 8. I picked up Seasons 9 & 10 for about 10 dollars, each, used and I plan on getting seasons 11 and 12 used on DVD for the same amount and the rest on Blu Ray whenever they're cheap.
    Well, ya'know if you stay positive and forget about trivial things like "proper characterization," "Satire," and "emotional depth" watching new Simpsons episodes can be a seemingly enjoyable lie.

    9 as the ones that follow are utterly shite.

  26. #26


    shame me, but i only own 3-7

    i had 10 at one point but it was such an awful waste of shelf space that i eventually sold it

    I stopped buying after season 10, don't get me wrong, I still watch new Simpsons episodes to this day but I dont really care to have the ability to rewatch post classic Simpsons whenever I want. I don't really plan on buying any more seasons of the show, of course if there is ever a second movie I'd buy that. I own over 200 episodes of Simpsons on dvd and am quite happy with that.
