It’s the news you’ve been waiting for. The Simpsons: The Complete Third Season on DVD has been given a release date. Comingsoon.net reports today that “Fox Home Entertainment has set an August 26 street date for the release of the third season of The Simpsons on DVD. The studio had originally indicated season three would be out by June, then pushed the date back to July.”
The news comes from a reliable source which appear to have contacts with 20th Century Fox. “Fox has set a $49.98 suggested retail price for the four-disc collection of 24 episodes from the 1991-92 season. In addition to commentary, the set will include a discussion of animation with Matt Groening, Jim Brooks and Al Jean; outtakes from numerous episodes; audio of a table read for “Treehouse of Horror II”; an 11-song jukebox feature; and Fox promos for the show.”
