Title: The Simpsons Discussion thread. (And GTM Edition?)
Post by: Jonzu95 on April 21, 2011, 07:39:23 AM: I'm surprised there's no Thread About...

The Simpsons. That's right. The most awesome TV Series ever in history. Anyway, this is thread for discussing about The Simpsons AND I got some kind of The Simpsons GTM Edition... Not sure how it would work but who knows. :mrgreen:

Post by: Jack Daniels on April 21, 2011, 10:32:29 AM: Frankly I hate the Simpsons now. I watched the skits when they were just an additive for "The Tracey Ullman Show" and then the first 3 or 4 seasons worth. It was funny at times. I wore a Bart Simpson shirt as a kid. It was pretty cool. Until I realized...

One...

Thing...

90% of the jokes are rehashed and beaten to death. A human being can only laugh at a Homer simpson "D'oh" so many times before it just becomes stale. But, the writers insist, and they have the same crap and the same lines happen to the same characters over and over and over with different plots for each episode. It just gets tiring. Frankly I am surprised that the series has gone on for as long as it has.

Please don't be offended though, that is just my opinion. I hate the show, not the viewer.

Post by: Badnik96 on April 21, 2011, 04:01:27 PM: I agree with JD. It was funnier when it was older.

Actually it's the same with Family Guy. But Family Guy still has funny stuff in it :P

Pretty much. Like Saturday Night Live, unfortunately. Both do put out some chuckles now and then, just rarely.

But yeah, Futurama's more consistent, so I prefer that instead. :P

Hardly ever watched Futurama, (5 episodes that I can remember) but from what I can remember, the humour and SFX in it are a lot better than a certain son of simps.

American Dad is about 100 times better than Family Guy, but nobody that I talk to agrees with me.

Well, I agree with you, even though I don't understand why, since they're made by the same person. Maybe he just ran out of good ideas for Family Guy.

This is

1) Blatant advertising
2) Thread necromancy

Anyway, keep your fanboy opinions to yourself, Jonzy.

Personally, I despise ~~all~~ most Western cartoons (Teen Titans is probably one of the few exceptions and the only one I can think of off of the top of my head), and the Simpsons is as bad as the rest of 'em, IMO

Post by: Scorpion on June 11, 2011, 02:30:15 PM: Simpsons was good, but yeah, it grows stale, although that should be expected given how long it has gone on for.
Futurama was far better though, always has been, I think it's because their is a lot of room for creativity their, definately a lot more than the simpsons.

And family guy is VERY hit and miss if you ask me.
