Throw all of those in the trash and watch Hank Scorpio

















And then dig them out of the trash because they're good episodes

You Only Move Twice is one of the greatest episodes, but not one to introduce the show.

confirm a theory for me: if not good, are newer simpsons episodes improved on a rewatch?

it's been way too long since i bothered to sit down and watch it but i remember catching a relatively new episode on two airings in a week and the second time it just seemed... funnier somehow, like i could actually catch the jokes in the background etc

(i don't remember the episode but it had some kind of mario bros/donkey kong joke at one point)

lol if you are lucky , if , a new Simpsons will make you laugh out loud once.

the Simpsons memes are better than 22 minutes of “oh that’s...clever” or “heh”

I just get mad and give up whenever I watch the last few seasons because of just how outright bland, corporate, and lamely neoliberal the "humor" is, but I hung in there longer than most. I used to be in the "hate everything after season 10" crowd, but on rewatch these days I can generally find myself laughing quite a bit at seasons 11-20-ish. It's kind of a matter of letting go of my baggage about the perfect seasons and appreciating the dryer, sillier, and more meta tone of everything that came after. Some episodes are downright awful but most at least have a few solid bizarre lines or sight gags that I enjoy rediscovering. A few episodes are genuinely very solid IMHO, albeit maybe in a different way than the golden era.

I have the notion sometimes to write up a playlist of my favorite episodes from the post-prime era though honestly it's hard to guarantee I can remember them all correctly and I suspect I'm probably setting myself up for a bunch of "no, actually, this is awful" responses.

I can't even stand looking at the animation from the newer seasons. It's hideously uniform. There's something disgusting about the posture of the figures. The classic art is organic and grotesque, whereas the new stuff is sterile and uncanny.

New Simpsons is bad and there is no reason to watch it when you can watch 3-9 on an endless loop.

No. Like, there'll be a funny homerism here or there, but the rest is poo poo like Marge getting a makeover and being mistaken for a drag queen. I don't know why I'm doing this to myself.

I don't drink, either. Pray for me.
