    One only need list a random selection of episodes from The Simpsons fifth season in order to demonstrate just how well written, intelligent and funny this show was at its very peak.

    Television really doesn't get much better than watching Homer's Barbershop Quartet; Homer Goes to College, Deep Space Homer or any of the other nineteen episodes available on this DVD boxset.

    Season 5 isn't as good as Season 4, but it still has the classics "Cape Feare" and "Rosebud", and is still a strong year for America's Favorite Family.

    Season 5 of The Simpsons is an amazing continuation to the series defining Season 4 that still remains incredibly fun with amazing humor, well written stories and great use of guest appearances. This was a very strong season for The Simpsons that continued the show perfectly!

    This film noir portrait of corruption and morally-compromised obsessions stars Welles as Hank Quinlan, a crooked police chief who frames a Mexican youth as part of an intricate criminal plot.
