Trivia
- According to showrunner Al Jean's Twitter page on Wednesday, April 8, 2015, it says that both Blu-ray and DVD releases of the show will be discontinued[1] because he is running out of characters, and neither seasons 18 nor 19 will even be released on DVD or Blu-ray despite coming close to its 20th season, but that statement was dramatically changed on July 22, 2017 (see below). Every episode of the show, however, is still availible on FXX (both the rerun blocks on every Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday and in the marathons) and its FXNOW mobile app and online service.
- However, during the Simpsons panel at San Diego Comic Con 2017 and on Al Jean's Twitter page on Saturday, July 22, 2017, he announced that The Complete Eighteenth Season will be released on DVD on December 5, 2017. This is a sign that the rest of the seasons of the show will be released on DVD and Blu-Ray, and that they will not discontinue the DVDs ever again.
- This is the first and only boxset to have been given a '15' rating by the BBFC in the UK. All previous boxsets in the UK were either rated 'PG' or '12'.
