Simpsons season 8 is pretty awful. Wow. It started earlier than I thought.
That's what happens when you have to fill another season.
I love New Orleans. Used to go for a week every Halloween and hit the Anne Rice Ball and the Voodoo Music Fest as well as a few other things.
Seriously love the city.
Last time I went I hadn't been for some years and it has changed alot but I still love it.

I've been talking to a friend about Simpson seasons and going back I was surprised how 8 wasn't as great as I remembered. It only has a few good episodes.

The immediate drop in quality is astounding. I'm curious as to what was going on behind the scenes.

I still find enjoyment from 8-12 but the quality definitely drops off and good episodes are more spread out.

I fucking love season 8. I guess I can kinda understand why people don't like it since they said that season 8 was an attempt to concentrate on other characters aside from the Simpsons.

Maybe it's placebo, but it immediately feels off. It starts with a pretty weak Treehouse of Horror. Continues with an episode where they move. The Homer boxing episode is super overrated. Burns' son.
It's awful.
I don't think it's just that. It just stops feeling funny. There's one or two good laughs in an episode, but it drags on for the rest of it. I'd love to know what happened between S7 and S8.

I'm currently on a rewatch, so I haven't gotten their yet. Who knows if it holds up. The Homer they Fall sure didn't.

Hell yeah it's Grimes. Season 8 is amazing, but considering OIN's...questionable taste, not surprised he thinks the way he do.

You Only Move Twice isn't great.
My faves from 8 are Poochie ep, Homer's Phobia, Beer Baron, Grimes.

I've been meaning to do a re-watch through season 12
97-99 is when I was watching it a lot on syndication via fox. I got fox ny and fox philly so I was getting 2-3 hours of Simpson reruns every night.

Brothers, I ain't denying season 8 has some hits. But it's a pretty bad start coming from THE GOLDEN ERA.
Half of Simpsons season 8 is really good and the other half is not
Hank Scorpio, the X Files parody, Poochie, the prohibition episode, Brother From Another Series and Simpsons Spin off showcase are all great
Mary Poppins, Marge selling pretzels, and Hurricane Neddy are pretty bad
Mysterious Voyage of Homer and In Marge We Trust are half good
I have never ever been a fan of the Frank Grimes episode and yes I know what it was trying to do
Also remember the awful Skinner imposter episode from season 9 was actually a holdover from 8 and written by that team
Such a wildly inconsistent season

Just like the hope and optimism from the last presidential administration feels like ancient history.
It was only 7 months ago.
Mickie James is on Raw now, right?
What if she taught Bayley how to beat Alexa Bliss?
