Yesterday, I had an 8 hour driving experience. In times of boredom, one often contemplates things that ... well .. really don't matter. sooooooooooooooo ...
I haven't seen a good, new Simpsons episode in quite a while. I understand that it has to change after so many seasons, but it seems like they've gotten away from the good stuff and started throwing in cheap, foolish jokes like ...
Too many drug references. How many times can you see 420 and think it's funny?
Marge trying to be cool. It's not funny like the old days "Now I'm a real hot rod mama, aye kids?" .. now it's like she says things that are "cool" now .. like "foschizzle" and things of that nature. It's just NOT funny at all.
Enough of the Maggie shot Mr. Burns stuff. How many times can they come back and reference it? I'm sure they will in the new movie, too.
Celebrity guests .... why .. oh WHY do they have to have celebrity guests on every episode? It's like they're just trying to fill time now.
Whatever happened to Bart and his prank phone calls to Moe? Come on! How hard is it to work one in every once in a while?
To me, this started about season 11 and has continued on. And I personally blame the new writers. I don't like them. I miss Conan and the originals. I can watch an older episode and laugh outloud through most of it. I watch the new ones and MAYBE get 1 - 2 chuckles through the entire 22 minutes.
Flame away.
