Season Information
|
It was originally intended that the season finale, "Some Enchanted Evening", would be the first episode of the season as well as the series which would have aired at Autumn of 1989. However, after a poorly received workprint of the episode, 70% of it had to be redone, delaying it to months throughout the season until finally being aired on May 1990,late in the season. Subsequent episodes in their production such as "Bart the Genius" had minor problems that were easy to fix and were suitable for airing. As "Some Enchanted Evening" was being overhauled, the producers considered to air the Christmas special, "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire", which had the nearest airdate and would be the season premiere and the first episode of the series.
The season had four nominations and won one of them. It won Outstanding Animated Program from "Life on the Fast Lane", which the episode was tied with "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire". "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire" was nominated for "Outstanding Editing in a Miniseries or Special", "The Call of the Simpsons" was nominated for "Outstanding Individual Achievement in Sound Mixing for a Comedy Series or a Special" and "The Simpsons Theme", composed by Danny Elfman, was nominated for "Outstanding Achievement in Main Title Theme Music".
All of the 13 episodes of Season 1, including extras such as the "Some Enchanted Evening" workprint, were released on DVD on 25th September 2001 in Region 1 and 24th September 2001 in Region 2 and 4. This is the First of the Complete Seasons of The Simpsons released in boxsets for home media.
