Apu also just disappeared with no explanation. Probably some other characters too, like the Irish guy from the whacking day episode

They should have just replaced Hank Azaria with someone of Indian heritage so the character would stop being offensive because of its voice actor, like Aziz Ansari

apparently they had an ep that was basically a callout over Apu by his nephew (played by some prominent Indian American comedian whose name escapes me, and also escaped Mike Reiss when he mentioned it in an interview) from which point Apu abandons Springfield in shame never to return

yiou should see this timely episode that came out in 2023

quote:

Springfield's in lockdown mode when a caterpillar infestation hits the town. Initially, the Simpsons plan to spend their quarantine using a streaming service. After Homer accidentally signs out of the app, each of the family members go off on their own at-home adventure. Homer and Marge have to hijack ranch dressing into their home from Flanders when it's the only thing Maggie will eat, Bart works with his friends through online video to help Principal Skinner retrieve his childhood quilt from his cousin Peter, and Lisa imagines herself shrinking down in size so she can enter the dollhouse given to her as an early Christmas present.

The beloved animated series focuses on the eponymous family in the town of Springfield in an unnamed U.S. state. The head of the Simpson family, Homer, is not a typical family man. A nuclear-plant employee, he does his best to lead his family but often finds that they are leading him. The family includes loving, blue-haired matriarch Marge, troublemaking son Bart, overachieving daughter Lisa and baby Maggie. Other Springfield residents include the family's religious neighbor, Ned Flanders, family physician Dr. Hibbert, Moe the bartender and police chief Clancy Wiggum.

:spergin: That was season 9, and he was in the war, he just lied about who he was- they imply Agnes was aware from the beginning in flashback. The whole episode is a meta-commentary by the showrunners but I forget what point they were trying to prove exactly, though I don't dislike the episode overall.

I notice a growing trend of misrepresenting early Simpsons to make it seem like it was always a bad hosed up show which I see no need for given the dire state of the most recent seasons. The rot really set in by 12-13 so there's like 20 years of poo poo Simpsons to hone in on without saying the outermost fringes of the golden years actually sucked all along
