Very fast delivery, and this season appears to have better quality episodes than some previous ones.  Glad I bought it!

I've just watched 2 episodes so I am not completely sure if it is going to improve or not! Season 2 was so amazing that I was expecting more. I'll give it a try though :)

The 13th season of the Simpsons is definitely a deviation from the style of the previous 12. The jokes are dull and hover on the absurd, the plots are rushed and seem ridiculous. There is a general pull away from the life lessons learned as a family in a quirky, crazy town and the episodes focus on just the crazy.

There are a few episodes which are still decent, but they are far and few between.

The quality of the audio and visual is actually ok for a DVD set. There is minimal to no graniness, and the sound is spot on. Every episode comes with commentary, which is the saving grace of this season (and the funniest part). The extras are interesting, deleted scenes etc but beyond commentary nothing to write home about.

As for the box set itself we see, as with 12 and 11, the discs slip into sleeves. The overall effectiveness and longevity of the set is much better compared to the glued plastic cases of previous sets, but I am not a fan. The discs tend to fit way too tightly and do end up getting scratched. However, I do not see myself re-watching this season much, if any, so for season 13 I guess that won't be much of an issue.

Some episodes were a bit darker compared to the earlier seasons. Some of the villains were lot less believable. It was harder to watch those episodes but the overall season was still excellent.

Every season is better than the previous season! My wife and I didn't watch this when it was new and are kicking ourselves for that, but being able to binge watch has its advantages.

The quality is not as "HD" as I would prefer, but it's watchable. Loved this season; too bad it just kinda got progressively worse from season 2-4.

Though this Anne Beatts produced season has been criticized by Debbie Allen, I think you will find all the episodes to be worthwhile. Of course I am disappointed the other season's haven't been made available. I also feel that the producers should of weeded out the older cast mates and brought in some new blood,after a few years.

I think so far this show is just getting better and better and better I love it

I think this is one of the best seasons yet.  With every season the show really comes into it's own, and the change in this season shows it. I have season 1 & 2 as well.  I love to see what Adam Ferrara, Rutledge Wood and Tanner Foust are going to be up to with each episode. I am happy they did away with the "Big Star in a Small Car" segment as well as being in the hanger and focus on cars and the great challenges.  I don't know how many friends I have recommended this show to, or just made watch.  When season four is available I will be purchasing that as well.

This season is not as good as the earlier ones.  Michael leaves 3-4 episodes before the close of Season 7

Last few episodes were pretty dull.  Nothing seemed to happen in those episodes to make you eagerly await season 2.  However, the overall storyline is unique and combined with the likable characters makes most episodes quite entertaining.

The show is not well written.  Some of the details are different when the same situation is shown back again.  This season is a little better than the first though
