this is a very good thread

also the exact point the simpsons changed irrevocably for me is the part of trash of the titans where the trash is bursting up around town or whatever and the corpse of rodd and todds pet rabbit they had just buried shoot up out of the ground and they scream. It just seemed like a really hosed up, mean spirited joke that was really out of step with anything the show had done before

it's amazing how horrible the line readings and audio mix are for the Bart's (completely unnecessary) lines at the beginning of the tik tok video

and also all the completely unnecessary and distracting gags walking into frame during the homer live thing. just reeks of a lack of confidence

It was probably because without them the only thing moving would be Homer's mouth.

sure but they could have staged it differently and/or had the things coming into frame be even remotely relevant to the context of what was happening

Speaking of the rarely seen room. Remember when they aired the New York episode and gave away a replica of the Simpson house irl?

Did anyone ever hear a single word on that house since that night? I remember there was some clause that the demo pics had matching furniture, but none of that would be in there for the winners. It would just be a house with lovely cartoon colors on the walls and stuff. Sometimes I think about this house and wonder about it and it's life beyond those ads in TV Guide or whatever it was that had the pics...

I remember they had little live action segments going into and out of commercial where louie anderson would walk around the house and show you stuff and I remember him opening the medicine cabinet and there was a big glass jar of munchkins that said "prescription donuts" on it and i remember thinking that was the kind of joke someone who didn't actually watch the show would come up with

also they painted the house yellow because the simpsons are yellow, i guess? even though the house isn't yellow on the show. the person who lives there now apparently repainted it to be less obnoxious and in doing so actually made it look more accurate

Comedy Central is a distressing paradox, because every single show on it is in a constant state of being the least funny show on the network and on the planet. How can multiple shows be the least funny? I don't know, but they are.

This was true ten years ago but they actually are going through some crazy renaissance with Nathan For You and Review and stuff

Yeah I was just going to say the same, both of those shows made me laugh harder than anything in years. What the gently caress happened to Nathan For You anyways? I know Review is done but NFY was supposed to get a new season.

Nathan Fielder just tweeted the other day that it's on its way

And Review is coming back for like a three episode finale soon too! March 16 apparently

7 is the best season of the simpsons as almost every episode is gold. It starts to crack in 8, 9 is eh 10 it becomes bad.

I contend the Deep Space Homer (s5) is the first truly bad simpsons episode. The premise is contrived, and they guest voices (aldrin?) were poorly done. Some people just can't be voice actors. I bet it took 100 takes to get a suitable "Careful! They're rippled!" and the one they used is still pretty bad.

sorry we're looking for more of a "duh duh" idiot
