Well, I guess I've gotta watch this I've seen like <10 episodes of this show ever, so it's not tired out for me or anything.

 

[BertramCooper]

Someone please just hunt down The Simpsons writing staff and kill them. All of them.

And their children, just to be safe.

 

[Parallax]

because writers realize that lisa episodes are the fan favorite ones.

what the hell? and thats a reason to plague seasons with crap?

 

[Poyunch]

because writers realize that lisa episodes are the fan favorite ones.

It's a good reflection of the fans who still enjoy this show. Anyone who likes Lisa episodes have terrible taste.

I guess the Bleeding Gums Murphy episodes can count as Bleeding Gums Murphy episodes

 

[Admiral Bone to Pick]

Wait, Lisa episodes are the fan favorites? Since when?

 

[Something Wicked]

We need to put The Simpsons out of their misery once and for all.


*brings Homer behind the barn while carrying a shotgun and tears streaming down my face*

 

[Plywood]

Because this week she is. She just is.

Because it's not really Lisa. Real Lisa by now would have had her almost-wedding to British dude

 

[overcast]

Fuck this life.

 

[Souldriver]

I feel like I should care about this...but you know...nowadays Simpsons...and Gaga... Eh, sure why not.

 

[andymcc]

Wait, Lisa episodes are the fan favorites? Since when?

... i guess my sarcasm wasn't obvious enough.

 

[dudeworld]

I already hate this episode and I haven't even watched it yet.

Also, Lisa episodes always suck. She's best when she's only got a couple lines

 

[Cubsfan23]

Final nail in the coffin.

 

[Parallax]

with the state the series is in, you could tell me the writers do drugs with charlie sheen and i would believe you

 

[Dr. Malik]

GAF's hate towards modern day Simpsons and their hate for Gaga all in one thread

 

[Poyunch]

You just don't get it. These guys are self-proclaimed comic geniuses.

 

[Medalion]

Final nail in the coffin.

I don't think that coffin can fit anymore nails

 

[Trent Strong]

God, just end the show already. Either that or just start making the episodes completely Aqua Teen style insane. They missed the chance to go out with dignity like 14 years ago, they might as well just go nuts with it now and be really experimental.

 

[Admiral Bone to Pick]

... i guess my sarcasm wasn't obvious enough.

Sorry. I've actually met people who like Lisa and her episodes (plus I'm a serious business person), so it escaped me. I did like the episode with Paul McCartney at the end though.

 

[Persona7]

Please stop butchering the corpse of the show and let it rest in peace already.

It has been butchered from here to siberia twice over.

 

[Replicant]

Who here has actually seen all 23 seasons? I know I haven't. I can't even keep up with the first 8 or so seasons.

 

[Stitch]

that kesha tik tok was lame, ricky gervais' episodes were not funny at all, and now marge is suddenly jumping out of character

suddenly?

 

[Poyunch]

Too true.

 

[Conrad Link]

Ugh, more Lisa episodes.

I never use to hate her as much as I do now, modern episodes have done that to me.

 

[ChRoNiTe]

Everyone is saying Gaga this and Gaga that. But no one is saying worship this and Jericho that!

 

[greycolumbus]

I wanted them to do this for some time. Perhaps get a really really dark subplot going.

 

[JABEE]

Why aren't the Simpsons on Netflix? I could watch the first 8 seasons of the Simpsons and be happy.

 

[krypt0nian]

So desperate.

Hey The Simpsons have to try something, rite?

 

[the chris]

Stop it! The show's already dead.

 

[Peagles]

The show has been dead to me for 8 years, don't care

This, although maybe more years for me, sadly.

 

[Conrad Link]

Everyone is saying Gaga this and Gaga that. But no one is saying worship this and Jericho that!

What's this about Gaga?

 

[elrechazado]

Someone please just hunt down The Simpsons writing staff and kill them. All of them.

And their children, just to be safe.

Anyone they've ever talked to or interacted with as well.

 

[ViperVisor]

They noticed on a commentary how Homer being kissed by Harvey Fierstein wasn't a big deal but it was one of the 1st gay kisses on TV.

 

[Bisnic]

I'm more surprised that they didn't do this sooner.

 

[Credo]

jesus christ 23rd season

I've stopped watching around season 10...

has it gotten any better the latter half for those that stuck around ?

You made the right decision. I bought and watched seasons 1-8 and loved them. Season 9 was still pretty good, but it had a few stinkers mixed in. Season 10 was still decent in my opinion, but there was just a sense that it had begun to go downhill.

I didn't have any nostalgic value for anything past season 10 anyway, so that's the point where I stopped buying the DVDs, and I don't regret it at all.

 

[Superimposer]

I just can't believe that anyone involved thinks this is a good idea.

 

[strafer]

How many viewers does each episode have these days? Must be pretty good since they keep it going.

 

[dark_chris]

Stop it! The show's already dead.

Brilliant.

 

[Murkas]

How many views does Simpsons pull now? Who still watches it anymore?

Is Lisa still a Buddhist or has she changed beliefs again?

Just let it die, there are more horrible seasons then there are good ones

And please don't do the same to Futurama...

 

[Admiral Bone to Pick]

Season 22 averaged over 7 million viewers an episode.

I don't know how. I don't know why.

I don't think I want to know.

 

[andymcc]

the part that's most painful is if you think about the MJ episode from season 3. MJ wasn't actually credited, MJ played a real character, not himself. it was a pretty brillant guest-spot.

 

[ghostofsparta]

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Just when I was saying The Simpsons has gotten pretty funny lately they go and do this to me...

FOR SHAME!

Unrelated to thread: Wat happened to your odd avatar? the one with the walking head on legs and the rolling background.

*sighs* Simpsons has become something...else.

 

[Acheteedo]

The script writing process for new Simpsons goes like this:

"Fuck it, Homer upsets Marge then they make up at the end of the episode, who wants lunch?"

 

[Conrad Link]

I still watch every Simpsons episode, and always will. They sometimes have a laugh or too but not very memorable at all, I can quote the golden age word for word but often I can't even remember what the previous weeks new episode was even about.

lol. ;(

The current new Futurama series that is on TV here (I dunno what one, I'm from NZ, I assume its the 'newest' one) is so frickin' funny, I assumed that would tank in quality too but I'm liking them a lot.

Had to retire it when Avatar-Gif-Age ended.

Those were the days, brah. ;_;

 

[Bisnic]

The last Simpson episode should be Homer fighting Obama for president of the USA and Marge having sex with Madonna, while Bart went blowing things up with the Black Eyes Peas. Lisa is abandoned in the basement of the nuclear plant with Justin Bieber, meanwhile Maggie is shooting talibans in Afghanistan with her tank.

Yeah, guest appearances now basically consist of "Oh look, it's pop sensation Lady Gaga*." (Guest does something quirky and the episode continues without them and doesn't expand on it at all.)

*Change details to current celebrity

 

[Alrus]

Well why not, this will please the pop culture-references crowd. Can't be much worse than a Family Guy episode.
