At what point did the "Simpson's" become unwatchable for you, or do you still watch? If so why?

Question

For me personally, the show dropped off the deep end following the 10'ths eason. The 9'th was the last full quality season but a few in the 10'the were funny. After that though, I just couldn't stomach it anymore. At that point, the show was void of any sembance of an understandable sotryline, and what resulted was nothing more then 22 minutes of lame, unfunny jokes, cheap celebrithy cameos(for ratings)and repeated instances of Homer being rediculously dumb even by Homer standards. It boggles the mind how it has managed to stay on the air this long. For those who no longer watch, what did it for you? And for those that do, why and what about it still entertains you? Is it simply a matter of tradidition that you keep watching, or do you just not take cartoons in general that seriously and just tune in for a few quick laughs and don't care what the episode's premise is? I welcome opinions by any long time fan. Johnny or June come lately's just won't understand.

Answer 1

I agree that the 10th season was the beginning of the decline. It seems as though Mike Scully was way too focused on Homer, and always focused on making him seem really stupid.

I pray that the movie will be redeeming, since all the classic writers are working on it.

ETA: I think Scully actually dropped the IQ of a lot of characters, I am watching the episode where they get stuck in a cave, and Bart is acting as stupid as Homer.

Answer 3

dude...it's a cartoon, relax and just enjoy it. Why does everything have to be analyzed? Just sit back and enjoy it, dont' compare it to Family Guy (which people do), because they are so different.
I think it's still funny and timely.
