The Simpsons DVD commentaries are top tier. lots of good behind-the-scenes info. I put the commentaries on and pretend I have friends with whom I'm watching and discussing the show.

Didn't some of the episodes on the DVDs have audio tracks from non-French, non-Spanish foreign dubs as extras? I was really interested in the Japanese one just due to anime and was curious how they'd play out the dialogue of an extremely American cartoon. I don't know if this is legit, but they managed to get Japanese voice actors who sound a bit like Seymour and Chalmers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOwMYxYsPig Man, I guess if you're looking for something to spice up classic Simpsons, the dubs bring something new to them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEudK9_oL34 JediTalentAgent fucked around with this message at 18:25 on Jul 29, 2018 |

As much as I want the show to end I hope it could at least end on a somewhat high note. Like maybe with another movie with Hank Scorpio or something with the best writers returning.

The DVD commentaries are definitely worth it for all of the inside baseball about how the show is made and whatnot, but the best thing about them is the slow unraveling of how peculiar of a person John Swartzwelder is.

Mike Reiss was interviewed by Chapo Trap House a few weeks ago and the anecdotes he dropped about Swartzwelder were loving hilarious. I see why they kept slipping him into the show with cameos. I need to pick up some of his books.

I don't know how Disney/Fox can end the Simpsons. They could maybe go the route of doing the Simpsons as a series of shorts, again. The series is officially cancelled, but they stay in the public eye in the form of 0.5-5min shorts that appear through the week with other programming and/or their Hulu/Youtube channel. I could see them doing a Springfield series spinoff to take weight off the main cast of characters to give themselves an out of, "Well, the Simpsons are a part of Springfield, too..." They can quietly cancel the Simpsons and the characters continue to make appearances down the road.

there's lots of scenarios where they cancel the simpsons, it's very easy to envision: 1) one of the few tribes scrounging for food in the last few arable pieces of land in the american wastelands is insufficiently vigilant in purifying their water, and the elders succumb to cholera. they did not specify a lore-keeper before this calamity and so the long oral tradition of the tribal simpsons-speaker, an unbroken chain of voice actors dating back to before the cataclysm, is forever severed. 2) a flaw in the central machine of the self-aware disney entertainment system causes an unstable feedback loop in the neural circuitry that imprisons the cast and crew in their statis pods. while its system of thought is entirely alien to ours, this malfunction creates a pattern of behavior that is somewhat analogous to the human notion of mercy. in the brief seconds before the error-correction and redundancy systems restore the status quo, the DES permits the cast the ultimate freedom: the freedom to die. 3) the last gasp of a super-massive dying star releases a gamma ray burst that bathes our planet in purifying radiation and we, the simpsons included, are snuffed out like a match on a windy day.

JediTalentAgent posted:I don't know how Disney/Fox can end the Simpsons. I bet this will definitely happen. As for a Springfield show, I have a hard time envisioning how that would be actually different from just doing the Simpsons in most respects. You still need most of the same voice actors and the side characters have all become so ridiculously 1-dimensional I don't know what you'd do with them in their current form that would be interesting. 15-20 years ago, though, I could definitely envision something like a show about the elementary school, though I'm content with the spinoff showcase episode.

At the end of every video, a placeholder voice-over/animation of Bart Simpson going, "Like, subscribe and comment, dudes! Rate my shorts, man!"

Yeah, I listened to that, and there were still stories that hadn’t come up in the commentaries haha (I only have seasons 3-8, so they didn’t come up on those commentaries at least). Definitely interested in reading some of his novels

The Simpsons might just never end. It's not the longest running animated series. There's an anime called Sazae-San that seems to fill a similar niche to the Simpsons that has been running since 1969.

They have enough voice clips from the main cast that soon they'll just digitally splice them together to make new episodes without actors. Like this, but audio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U58IdBjMeS4 Simpsons will never die. Don't cry for it, it's already dead
