There will be about 2/year so if the scedule holds, in the first 6 months. Lets hope.

Will there be any differences between R1 and R2 like there was in the first season? Except more subtexts and less fbi-crap in the beginning?

Season 1 released on September 25, 2001. Season 2 released on August 6, 2002.

2/year, I think not...

months.

And it falls to me to point out that that IS 2/year :) Only just though.

One every eleven months could be considered two every twelve months, and twelve months is one year. However, when people say "per year" they usually mean per calendar year. Assuming an 11-month wait between releases, season 1 was released in 2001, season 2 was released in 2002, season 3 will be released in 2003, Season 4 will be released in 2004, season 5 will be released in 2005, etc., it will be a number of years before two are released in a single calendar year.

Yeah, but it only works that way the first time. For example:

S1 Sept 01 S2 Aug 02 S3 Aug 03 S4 Aug 04 S5 Aug 05

After S2, you have had 2 sets in one year. Then you get 0 in one year (Aug 02 - July 03). You can't double count the S2 set...

Then from the year Aug 03 - Aug 04, you get 2 sets. Then you have a year with 0 sets.

So you can look at a release schedule like this and say you get two per year with a year off, or you can simplify it and just say you get one each year.

Pretty pathetic release schedule. Fox should take a lesson from Paramount - Box set DVDs of all seven seasons of "Star Trek: TNG" released between March 26 and December 31, 2002. I think we Simpson fans are hardcore enough to deserve the same kind of treatment as the Trekkers!

Actually I think it is more likely that fox will pick up the pace of the releases, they may have been slow at first to see what kind of sales they would get. "ALewis525" wrote in message news:[email]...

I don't see the logic behind that. Perhaps I'm over-looking something obvious, however...

You're not overlooking anything obvious. The reason that the "Simpsons" DVD's take so long to be releases is the time it takes to assemble supplements. This was confirmed by Fox Home Video rep Peter Staddon in a recent Home Theater Forum chat. Considering that Season 1 of "The Simpsons" is the best-selling TV product available on DVD, I'm sure Fox would love to release them just as fast (or faster) as their other properties (like "X-Files" and "Buffy", which both get regular releases every six months like clockwork) but they have to wait on the supplements. Unless the people behind "The Simpsons" make an effort to produce the extras in a faster fashion, the yearly releases are probably going to remain. -------------------------------- "That's the worst reverse-acting I've ever seen!" -Sam Raimi

With same image and sound quality? Without syndication cuts? With commentaries? With other special features?

Maybe there's a way to get all these, but it's hell of a lot more difficult than simply getting the set from a store.
