The Simpsons Fifth Season DVD

[rock76]

I recently bought the DVDs and had seen only the first disc what can I expect from the rest of them? Any hidden features? easter eggs?

Click around the menus to find the eggs. For example, some of the items in Apu's store will highlight (I forgot which disc this is on).

I cannot recall if there are any "hidden" commentaries on this season, but I think there are. When playing an episode hit the "audio" button on your dvd remote (or whatever button you have to hit for your player to change the audio tracks it's playing) to see if there are audio tracks other than the normal program audio and the main commentary.

Another hidden bonus is that the animated menus change depending on previous actions. I cannot give any specifics without checking them out again, but say, for instance, you are looking at the menu for extra features on a particular disc. While looking at the menu for the first time, you will see a certain animated sequence. If you select something else and then go back to the menu, you will see a different animated sequence behind the menu. I noticed that there are lots of different gags that play while you're looking at the menus, including characters tapping their feet as if they are impatiently waiting for you to make a selection, characters making sounds, etc. The Simpsons box sets, by far, are the best authored discs I have in my collection. I've never seen another dvd where the menus themselves are written to be so entertaining and varied.

I'm sure someone else can chime in with one of the dvd "easter egg" sites. (I'm at work and I don't recall any of the urls right now.) It's fun to check out those sites to see all of the easter eggs that other consumers have found.
