Yeah actually Sam Simon and Jim Brooks deserve the credit for The Simpsons being good; Groening just came up with the initial idea and the shorts. Also George Lucas had nothing to do with the good parts of Star Wars.

Family Ties went to England too. If you were a sitcom of the era that was just a thing you did.

There's one commentary where a character uses a spork and yeardley smith had apparently never seen one and asked the writers how they came up with that

Hedgehog Pie posted:I just looked this episode up and remembered that it was the one where my own avatar master Steve Buscemi shows up for literally a single gag, possibly in the middle of a bad musical number? I remember at the time that was singled out as being perhaps the worst use of a guest star in the history of the show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hF4NsTYpbek hi Homer I'm actor Steve Buscemi

muscles like this! posted:They've officially run out of ideas as an upcoming episode will have Yeardley Smith guest star as herself. Apparently one of her side projects is a true crime podcast and that's what brings her to Springfield. I guess she doesn't get paid enough from The Simpsons so she has to take all the podcast money for herself too https://www.thedailybeast.com/the-simpsons-yeardley-smith-aka-lisa-simpson-accused-of-screwing-her-bff-out-of-small-town-dicks-podcast

A lot of the actors don't really seem to get the show but I think that might be my own prejudice as having watched all the episodes a hundred times and memorizing them all and they maybe watched it once after doing their lines. It's so disappointing to find out they're not all huge fans like I am!

yeah people always bring up stuff from the old episodes when we poo poo on the new ones. "but they did that 20 years ago too!" and the important thing is, it was funny when they did it 20 years ago and just lazy today. And they weren't making fun of the unions as much as they were making fun of the stereotype
