Topic: The Simpsons Thread

Ralph still cracks me up:

It would be nice, wouldn't it? The only way to see it these days is through the DVD set or Youtube.

Seth McFarlene, more like Seth McFa... never mind. Family Guy is just plain stupid (the Blue Harvest special is alright though.)
Never watched American Dad, and I swore I would never watch The Cleveland Show when I found out it was replacing my favorite show.
I take back what I said about the Simpsons. It mustn't die by the hands of McFarlene!

@cheetahman: you know they're doing Empire in the same Blue Harvest fashion soon, right? I forget what they're calling it off the top of my head though :3

The Halloween Specials are always, always, ALWAYS awesome!!!

And, if anyone reads my signature; I'd like to kindly say that I'm the number one fan of the Starfy clam Moe, not the bartender Moe. _{I should edit my sig} Not that Moe Szyslack isn't funny. I say it kindly 'cause I'm a nice person.

I like Ralph Wiggum, he's always funny and makes me laugh. Apu Nahasapeemapetilon is funny too.
I like many characters from The Simpsons, especially Marge and Lisa.

Futurama is the greatest of them all by a longshot for me; brilliant humor, wonderful use of sci-fi tropes, and an entire production that just gives the impression that the animators, voices, and other staff members actually care about the overall quality of the show, rather than merely using it as a vehicle for jokes.

I used to enjoy Simpsons back in the day, and I'm sure there must still be some good episodes here and there, but I simply never check to find out. I don't care for McFarlane at all.

That's okay, wariosmaildelivery. To each his own.

@theblackdragon: Really? I'll have to catch that on TV then whenever it comes out.

@dragon - there's another Family Guy Star Wars special coming soon? Awesome, I enjoyed the first one. I have the calendar (still in use until December 31st).

I just caught the commercial again -- it's 'Something Something Dark Side' and it says it's straight-to-DVD, so i dunno when it'll come to TV. probably on Fox or Adult Swim eventually, just like Comedy Central wound up getting the Futurama straight-to-DVD stuff. :3

Oh. Well, it's good to know that it's coming soon.
Anyone recall the two-part "Who Shot Mr. Burns?" episode? Unforgettable.

Very very funny. It is episode 21 of season 8 and their playing it sometime next year.

EDIT: Also its Something Something Something Dark Side

well, there you go. thanks, Aviator. :3

Listen to this man; he is speaking the truth.

(Except for the fact that American Dad is *****ng ace. But hey, nobody's perfect.)

Cant enjoy the Simpsons beyond Season 10. They are gettiing worse and worse... Personally, I prefer South Park right now.

Great Christmas (ish) Episode - 'Marge not be Proud'.

Excellent parodies of Mortal Kombat (Bone Storm 2) expressing the classic problem of running out of characters when entering your name in a video game, and the desire to get bored with golf games and want to launch the ball as far off the course as possible:

I like the Simpsons, and agree it's getting old, but not until about the 19th. This is for me, who wasn't even alive during the first seasons. Futurama was pretty sweet, and I heard Comedy Central ordered 20 new episodes to be aired next summer.
All this talk about McFarlane is really heating me up. You know, FOX calls it "Animation Domination" for a reason: His shows pretty much dominate the line-up.

EDIT: Ralph remains hilarious to this day. "When he grows up, I wanna be like me!"

I nominate Ralph Wiggum as the most hilarious character in The Simpsons.
Anyone agree?

EDIT: That video was great, JamieO. I'm sorry I didn't reply earlier

Ah, the Simpsons. I used to watch it every Sunday, but I don't anymore. All I have left is the movie and Hit and Run for the GC. I'm working on Marge's level now.
