There were so many extras promised, Maybe they delays were there because there was trouble clearing them and they had to be taken off

Yeah there was like the babrah bush letters promised, apparently Jim brooks wrote her a letter under the alias of Marge after she denouonced the show, The baby translator was supposed to have Loads of dannys quote on the baby translator, Kelsey Gramma outakes. There was just a few audio outakes easter egg, The best being Homers' foibels and the extended role call for the show 'ya hoo'
Dont get me wrong I really love all the commentaries but Once they'd promised some of those things I was quite excited, They got hopes up needlesly I wouldn't have minded if they'd never promised them.
But it still worth it though

Yeah, there were some many freaking extras listed, and there were only a couple. I felt gyped. The main menu is fine, but the inner menus just seem like a cop-out, especially the scene selection that has no music. And with the commentaries, I guess they figured that Futurama's were funnier because of West and DiMaggio. Castellentta and Cartwright are fine, but Kavner, who is in practically every commentary, sits there saying, "That's so great" at the episode over and over, and Smith does absoletely nothing.

More specifically, can you do it in PowerDVD or on a PS2 (which are the only DVD players available to me)? with a ps2 You press select to bring up a menu which gives some numbers The code is something like 84763 So you have enter it as 08 04 07 06 03 You have to make sure the numbers have been enterd so dont press everything too quickly I think it would also work if you knew the chapter number and could put that in

What do you mean 'I guess they figured. futurama commentaries were funnier', what does that have to do with it. Yeardles does talk about singing as Lisa and that that amount homer asks lisa to move on the couch seemed 'so harsh' So its something at least, Hopefully they can schedule Dan and Nancy to be in the same room, It'd be great if they could ad lib some commentary as homer and Bart, The Spinal Tap DVD has the three of them doing commentary in character

...Incidentally, is it just me or are the voices of the Simpsons commentators generally less distinctive than those of the Futurama commentators? I mean it took me a while to distinguish Al Jean from Dan Castellanetta and Jim Brooks from Mike Reiss, and I can barely remember how any of the writers sound. If anything, the directors voices are more memorable. I actually find it harder to distinguish voices on the Futurama commentaries, mostly those of the writers. On the Simpsons DVDs, I can recognize and distinguish everybody.

when her voice goes high enough she could be Gonzo.
I have no trouble telling voices apart really They sound different to me, I think Billy and Fry sound more like there characters than Dan.I could listen to Mike reiss all day(I hope people get that joke) Some of the directors voices are hilarious like Mark Kirkland and Jim Reardons

Originally posted by DotheBartman: Anyways, I'd have to say I agree that the voice actors on the Futurama commentaries are more fun to listen to. I prefer the Simpsons commentaries overall (more information and they don't devolve into endless joking and laughing nearly as much). But where West and DiMaggio are at least hilarious in their sometimes intrusive behavior, the Simpsons ones just seem to comment every once in a while. Cartwright and Castellenetta do say some interesting things (and are also occasionally hilarious, like Cartwright's "My water broke, man" in Bart's voice), but Smith doesn't show up enough and Kavner's contributions seem fairly useless. Yeah, The Simpsons commentaries are more informative, but a bit dry. It's a shame that they couldn't have been more informative on Futurama commentaries actually, because if they had been they would've been perfect. Speaking of the voice actors, one of my favourite Castellanetta moments is on the commentary for "The Otto Show", when they start talking about voice actors impersonating other voice actors and then Dan goes "Of course, we all love to do Julie," and then he imitates Kavner going "Oh yeah, that's great!" Brilliant! Originally posted by User_names_suck: I could listen to Mike reiss all day(I hope people get that joke) Give our Region 1 friends a few years and perhaps they might just get it! Some of the directors voices are hilarious like Mark Kirkland and Jim Reardons I agree. I particularly love Jim Reardon's voice. He's got quite a sharp wit on him too.
