Seriously, look back at all the series of this show.

Series 1-3 are dated, but were good for the time

Series 4 is good but slightly dated

Series 5-9 are classics, no-one can argue with that, every episode was comedy gold

Series 10-11 are alright, but the quality really started declining as the series went on

Series 12 onwards are just plain rubbish. No funny jopkes, the characters are stale, the stories are rubbish, and they've even ruined Homer. How people still rate this show is beyond me

I agree that some episodes (ie. Kill the Alligator and Run) are terrible, but you can't say all of Seasons 1-3 and 12 onwards are bad. I mean look at The Computer Wore Menace Shoes, Burns Verkaufen der Kraftwerk and Brother Can You Spare Two Dimes? All in series you mentioned as bad.

Of course this is just my opinion.

I agree with you IrishBoy.


I couldnt decide between watching an exclusive ep of the simpsons the other day, or The Crystal Maze , after about 5 minutes, of no laughter I knew the decision had to be the maze.

i think you got a point to a certain degree, and i think the point i am going to make could be used for just about any current or new animation series.

the fact is they have done just about everything with the show that they possibly can, they were talking about stopping it altogether, which i think is not too long away. as the film is coming out sometime in the future i think that that may well be the last simpsons for a while (unless they get a ricky gervais style to write thier own)

I agree that season 13 and onwards haven't had much of the classics that were in seasons 3-9, although one of my favorite episodes Blame It On Lisa was in season 13, I have to admit, they just aren't funny any more...

I don't watch it as much as I use to. But if I still had enough time on my hands I would watch it.

My brother is always watching it.
