In the first season, Bart was the series' breakout star, but in the second, The Simpsons established itself as a true ensemble series. Each character came into their own with career-best episodes. Marge, the family's long-suffering voice of reason, crusades against cartoon violence in Itchy & Scratchy & Marge. Lisa, the heart and tortured soul of the series, develops an ill-fated crush on her new teacher in Lisa's Substitute. Bart desperately tries to raise the money to buy Radioactive Man No. 1 in Three Men and a Comic Book. Homer's stock rises when he grows hair in Simpson and Delilah. Joining the Simpsons roster of scene-stealing supporting characters are Dr. Hibbert (Bart the Daredevil), shyster lawyer Lionel Hutz (voiced by the late, great Phil Hartman in Bart Gets Hit by a Car), the Ahnold-esque action hero McBain (The Way We Was), slobbering aliens Kang and Kodos (Treehouse of Horror), and nutty professor Frink (Old Money). This essential, extras-laden DVD set is illustrative of why The Simpsons is, in the parlance of Comic Book Guy, funniest show ever.
