Season 1

Season 1 is the first season and start of The Simpsons universe. It premiered on December 17, 1989 with "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire", and ended on May 13, 1990 with “Some Enchanted Evening”. Matt Groening, James L. Brooks, and Sam Simon were the showrunners of the season.
The original plan was to begin the season and the series in the Autumn of 1989 with "Some Enchanted Evening". However, the workprint of the episode was of poor animation and quality and was declined to be used. James and Matt thought it would be best to cancel show production if the subsequent episodes, like Bart the Genius, came out just like the awful original workprint, but thankfully, said episode had minor problems in production that were easy to fix and were suitable for airing. After that, seventy percent of Some Enchanted Evening's animation had to be redone, delaying it for months throughout the season until it finally was aired as the season finale on May 13, 1990. As "Some Enchanted Evening" was being overhauled, the producers decided to air the Christmas special, "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire", on December 17, 1989. The timing was very fortunate, as the episode would have had to be aired in the Christmas holidays of 1989 regardless of any other issues.
The season won one Emmy award and had four other nominations. "Life on the Fast Lane" won "Outstanding Animated Program", for which "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire" was also a nominee. "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire" was also 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 13 episodes of Season 1, including extras such as the "Some Enchanted Evening" workprint/early prototype, were released on DVD on September 25, 2001, in Region 1 (the USA and Canada) and on September 24, 2001, in Regions 2 (Europe, Japan, etc) and 4 (Latin America, Australia, etc). This is the first of the complete seasons of The Simpsons released in box sets for home media. After receiving many praises, Matt Groening decided to launch more seasons.
This is the only season to not have a Treehouse of Horror, possibly due to none of the episodes airing in October. This is also the only season to have 13 episodes, as the rest have at least 20 episodes.

"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".
==Trivia==
*Despite "Some Enchanted Evening" (not counting the final cut in 1990), "Bart the Genius", "Homer's Odyssey", "There's No Disgrace Like Home", "Bart the General", "Moaning Lisa", "The Telltale Head" and "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire" being produced in 1989, they were mistaken to be produced in 1990 instead of the 1989 copyright year The Simpsons TV series have started their first eight episodes on. FOX themselves didn't fix the error after the first season.
*It is the only season where Hank Azaria and Harry Shearer are recurring actors in the series.
*This was the shortest season of the show ever produced, with only 13 produced episodes in it as opposed to the usual 20-25.
*This is the only season of the show to be produced in the 1980s.
*
*This is the only season to have Homer speak like Walter Matthau (aside from the Simpsons shorts that were on The Tracey Ullman Show). He would adopt his more familiar robust voice in later produced episodes of this season all the way up until right now.
*This is the only season without a Treehouse of Horror special.
*There were movie references to Miracle on 34th Street, A Clockwork Orange, Full Metal Jacket, Cool Hand Luke, Patton, Stripes, The Longest Day, The Godfather, The Gay Divorcee, An Officer and a Gentleman, Le ballon rouge, and The Night of the Hunter.
