Hypothetically, they could make good new Simpsons episodes.

Season 1 is a rough watch imo. Some highlights, but it hadn't found a settled position. I could see people deciding it wasn't worth the effort.

Familiarity and continuity are extremely strong retention forces. The Simpsons is stable in characters and also easy to follow, episodes rarely require knowledge of previous story. Then you can add in lots of people growing up with it and all the modern hyper-nostalgia trends.

That's a hell of a stable marketing demographic to aim at.

Also, I watched all those " Oh! Canada" episodes on the Cartoon network. That one with the transporter was Josh Weldon's " To Be". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUXKUcsvhQc&t=70s
Despite Weldon being a poo poo, it's a good philosophical cartoon about the nature of life, morality and teleportation..

The man discovered a perfect way of reproducing food and medicine in infinite quantities and she willingly watched (and took part) as he was murdered over and over again. They could have had a dozen of him working on a way to selectively copy body parts and provide organs on demand. They could work on long term storage to make a massively compressed starship. They could build a massive clone army and kill all the Jedi.

Terrible woman.

I think Channel 4 used to show it in a 25 minute slot, they might have needed to trim a minute. The standard advert breaks might even be too short for a 30 minute slot, 8 minutes is loads.
