I like the future one where President Lisa uses Bart's mooching skills for politics successfully.

I think at some point they decided that hair shaped heads in lieu of actual hair was a Simpson only thing, with series stalwart Wendell grandfathered in.

To say nothing of Marge's hammerspace hair. That was the source of some great early gags like hiding her giant money jar in it. Eventually cartoon stuff like that kind of stopped happening

Little known fact about what's under Marge's hair, Matt Groening originally inteded for there to be several long feeding appendages, specialized for picking out termites under there

Tone it down a bit there. The Simpsons had a golden age that didn't involve harassing grieving mothers that had just lost their children.

True, also Homer's style of facial hair is exclusive to Homer. There was a pretty interesting vid about how they established their internal rules for character designs past the first season https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Iqdp77y_3c je1 healthcare fucked around with this message at 15:54 on Aug 28, 2023 |

Those characters were also designed during the 1st season, although they did have a subplot planned where Krusty and Homer were the same person, an idea which got canned along with Marge's rabbit ears when it became clear they wouldn't be cancelled.

If by "not cancelled" you mean, the moment matt groening articulated it to a single other person, then yeah. iirc that's when Sam Simon banned him from the writers room. It was *pretty* early on

Don't forget the bigger pupils in season 5. It's kind of funny how the commentaries reveal that groening hates all the fun stuff that gave the show charm. Maybe the real problem is that it all just melted away into lucas-level yesmen blinded by the merch money vvv: I might be misremembering when it happened but the point stands Sentient Data fucked around with this message at 20:43 on Aug 28, 2023 |

Sentient Data posted:It's kind of funny how the commentaries reveal that groening hates all the fun stuff that gave the show charm. Matt groening is Krusty the klown. Hilariously out-of-touch trend-chaser who only cares about money, and is a beloved figure despite being a weird rich creep with no real comedic sensibilities. He has control over and his name is synonymous with a very popular show (itchy and scratchy) so people put up with him and drive dump trucks of money up to his house for merchandise deals. He'll slap his IP on just about anything for the right price. He is immensely successful despite his lack of effort. Sentient Data posted:Maybe the real problem is that it all just melted away into lucas-level yesmen blinded by the merch money The current crop of writers grew up watching family guy and South park. They don't know what the Simpsons was all about (a deconstruction of the American family sitcom) because they've probably never seen them except as an academic exercise.

Was Groening really banned from the writer’s room? I never heard about that. But it’s not surprising, in any commentary he is in he constantly proves that his humor sucks and he doesn’t understand what made the show work. Hate that he gets all the fame.
