Watched a few random recent episodes and the only funny thing was how much Harry Shearer clearly doesn't give a gently caress.

Teriyaki Hairpiece posted:The season 28 finale is legit good. What was good about it? I wish someone respectable would make a list of all the legit good episodes after season 10. It would be cool to have a playlist of good Simpsons episodes I've never seen. SeANMcBAY fucked around with this message at 04:27 on Jul 13, 2017 |

The only thing I remember about the movie is Marge saying god drat (I don't even remember the context of this scene) and the Bart dick scene.

I also liked how they made Arnold a character because they thought the movie audience was too stupid to know who their own Arnold parody character is. Also isn't it wacky that this guy could be president? Joke was just lame then, now it's depressing as gently caress too.

The voice actors sound ok and pretty much the same to me other than Marge and all of Harry Shearer's characters since he clearly hasn't cared for 20 years. Marge's voice actress sounds like she's killing her poor vocal cords.

There's a lot of wacky episodes with jerk rear end Homer that are still funny. That's not why the show became bad.

I haven't regularly watched any new episodes since like season 10 or 11. I'll only check out the occasional new one if there's some buzz like the Lego one or the Futurama crossover.

54 40 or gently caress posted:gently caress my life that was so bad. I was 14 and so excited for it. I don't even think I finished the first episode. Lol Spike had some real animated stinkers. You know something must be embarrassing if even all of us as teens thought it was too edgelordy. It's still fine to enjoy R&S since John K. actually had surprisingly little to do with all the good poo poo. Bob Camp was responsible for most of the good content.

Just watched the new Treehouse episode and as someone that’s seen maybe 4-5 episodes past season 11, it wasn’t offensively terrible. Just meh. I hear the Treehouse episodes are better than normal ones these days so maybe that’s not the best gauge of quality. That Homer eating himself segment was pretty drat grotesque. The voice actors sound okay to me except for Marge’s at parts, which I can understand. Doing that voice plus harsher versions of that voice for 30 years straight would gently caress anyone’s vocal cords.

Aesop Poprock posted:aside from people in this thread I don't think I know a single person who watches the Simpsons regularly anymore. I honestly can't even imagine what that demographic would consist of. Left on in rooms of coma patients maybe? I wonder if there’s younger people that have nostalgia for like season 17 or something.

Do they still do a lot of Apu episodes since he had kids? I thought I read here that they don’t use him as much anymore. I know there was that terrible sounding episode of him cheating on his wife.

JazzFlight posted:I just finished rewatching the poison fugu episode and when Homer fearfully blurts out to "Marge, I'm gonna die! I'm gonna die!" and they have tears streaming down their faces, I'm like HOLY poo poo even while knowing he's obviously not dying. And then he reconnects with his dad and they say they love each other and he puts off his other bucket list items... and this is freakin' joke character Grandpa Simpson! The scene when Marge thinks he’s dead in the morning still gets me.

I think season 1-11 are all worth watching but the show doesn’t get really good until 3 and starts to be less good at 9.

I’d rather watch bad Family Guy over bad Simpsons. Bad Family Guy episodes can at least be interesting with how terrible they are, while bad Simpsons is usually just depressingly boring. I can’t hate Seth MacFarlane since American Dad is still really good even after 14 seasons. SeANMcBAY fucked around with this message at 06:28 on Nov 21, 2017 |

The show didn’t really hit its stride until season 3 but season 1 and 2 are much better than some give it credit for. There’s a lot of heart in some of those episodes.

Why are they suddenly trying to do gimmick direct sequels to 25+ year old episodes. Are the ratings really that bad now?

Justin Godscock posted:I really think we are going to see the cancellation of The Simpsons in the next few years with the Disney purchase. I mean, the show's future basically hinges on the contracts of the VAs and they signed a new one only a few years ago. Whenever it comes due its always an ugly battle between Fox and the VAs who are like a mini-union of themselves. Now that it's Disney at the table instead I can see them just go "we don't need The Simpsons as badly as Fox did" and let the show end. Season 30 really should be the last.

WampaLord posted:It makes so many weird unnecessary choices, like having Arnold as the President instead of Rainier Wolfcastle, and having yet another "Homer fucks up and Marge questions their marriage but then Homer saves the day and learns a lesson" subplot, but it also has plenty of good jokes, so overall I like it. Also it really should have been Hank Scorpio in it instead of giving Brooks a new character. The movie is better than most of the last 15-20 years of the show but it’s still just barely okay imo. It has a lot of weird stuff in it like showing Bart’s dick. I still don’t understand the thought process behind that idea.

That leader one is a little bit weak for the era it is from but still a pretty good episode. Have they ever tried to make fun of Scientology more directly? I’m guessing no since there’s scientologists on staff.

nah posted:I saw the Simpsons movie in a packed theater full of Simpsons nerds who did a standing ovation during the opening credits. Everyone loved the movie. It was one of my most memorable theater experiences ever. 6 months later I watched it on DVD at home alone and I had a similar experience with Snakes on a Plane. That movie sure aged well.
