:lol Nice avatar.apocalidiot said::lol :lol :lol One of my favorite scenes in any Simpsons episode. That season was fantastic :lol
How is this different from you coming into every show thread that ever gets posted where people are being negative and then lecturing everyone to stop being negative?omg rite said:d) I love the people who don't even watch the show coming in and going UGH END THIS FUCKING SHOW. That's adding a lot to the actual topic of the thread. Really.
a) Who the fuck gives a shit about Simpsons' story spoilers anymore? (Or ever?)omg rite said:a) The thread creator is an ass. You do know what a spoiler is, right? And I don't even watch the show, but that was stupid on your part.
b) To the people saying "how is that funny omg THAT'S SO HORRIBLE~~", it's a cartoon. How is Homer beating his kid funny?
c) It's obviously a parody.
d) I love the people who don't even watch the show coming in and going UGH END THIS FUCKING SHOW. That's adding a lot to the actual topic of the thread. Really.

legend166 said:Seasons 4-6 are the peak. 3, 7 and 8 are fantastic. 1 and 2 get a pass because it was just beginning, and the stories were still solid. 9 is average. Everything else is pointless. Simpsons seasons 10 through whatever they are up to now is a completely different show.
The sad thing is, we've almost reached the time where we can't even say "it was better 10 years ago."
ICallItFutile said:I completely agree. Season 8 was where the show started to change. I didn't like the changes. It wasn't the Simpsons anymore for me: different type of humor, different type of writing.
Tyrone Slothrop said:i think the spirit of the show has been intact over the years, despite some very lame gags that pop up here and there. the show just needs a push in the right direction, some better writers (i hear the current ones were hired straight out of college), and i'm fine with another 20 seasons
Gexecuter said:Also homer was willing to let grandpa die because he didn`t want to give up his kidney. the grandpa killing is a recurring joke.
How many have you watched?mio said:I've never seen a bad Simpsons episode.
I thought that was the implication behind the thread's creation. How can you be in before that?avatar299 said:In before the Simpsons suck, end the show, it was better 10 years ago, etc etc
None. What is a Simpsons?LinkAMN said:How many have you watched?

FightyF said:You sound like the writers who took over when the series went downhill.
Tabris said:Have you ever watched The Sopranos? Based on your description, it's an EXACT parody on the episode whereTony kills Chris.
Oh, and I don't really watch The Simpsons. I was just wondering how badly it had jumped the shark but that is a relevent parody, maybe a year late though.

The show peaked way before that. But to be fair there have been good episodes here and there.SantaC said:Peak was when Homer wanted to invent better than Thomas Edison. Best episode ever.
Spike Spiegel said:It was a dream sequence, but I still don't see how that's supposed to be funny.
I was channel surfing, and flipped to FOX in time to see Grandpa crash the family car with Homer as his passenger. Homer gets out, and Grandpa's pretty banged up. As Homer's dialing 9-1-, Grandpa's going on about how Homer's going to have to visit him in the hospital every day, and how he'll need to move in to Homer's house to receive the proper medical for the rest of his life, etc. etc. Homer gets this look on his face, and instead of dialing the last -1 he flips his phone shut and clamps his hand over Grandpa's mouth and nose. He's almost suffocated Grandpa to death when Lisa's voice cuts through the dream. Then Homer gripes about how he was having the most wonderful dream, but he always wakes up before the best part.
Which part was supposed to be the joke? The part where a son kills his elderly father rather than be saddled with caring for him, or the part where it's revealed this is a recurring fantasy for Homer?
couldn't agree more.minor effort said:Season 9 is usually where I see the ball dropped. There were a few misfires in Season 8, but it contained some of the last truly great episodes of the show.
hadareud said:couldn't agree more.
Starting from season 9 the show got poorer and poorer, the newer seasons are completely unwatchable for me.
People said that the film was an improvement, I don't think so. I watched it on a plane and I don't think I laughed once.
The show just has nothing going for itself anymore. Poor stories, poor humour, exaggerated voiceacting, cheap catchphrases and whoring out of the characters. When I think back how good this show used to be it makes me sad.
Good Lord man, Season 8 is where they dropped the ball?!?White Man said:Yep, season 8 is where the ball is dropped. I was buying the DVD sets, and season 7 almost reads like it should be a greatest hits set--heack, all of the seasons up until that point do--and then 8 is pretty barren (I think there are still a few classics in 8, though).
ProfessorLobo said:Like the writers for the faux Simpsons that Mr.Burns used to trick Bart.
"B'oh!"
