The Simpsons isn't quite as good as it used to be.

The Simpsons
has been dire for years. I blame Rupert Murdoch.

I watched the Simsons for the first time
about 2 weeks ago.

How has that been going for so long?

Didn't get it at all.

It was once great,
but now there are no good stories, and so it exists as a massive cash cow for Fox, trading on its past glory and trying to ape Family Guy.

Bollocks to you, if I want to beat my children then I'm bloody well going to.

That's how I solve the problem of children on planes anyway.

I have a theory.
NOTHING is as good as it used to be.

(well, as far as TV comedy goes anyway)

I watched the 'brand new' Simpsons episode (I think it was epsiode 501) and laughed out loud about half-a-dozen times.

Sure, maybe that's not as many times as I used to when watching the Simpsons...but I can't think of many TV shows nowadays that make me laugh even close to that amount of times.

Everything is shit nowadays. First.world.problem right there

Antiques, they tend to get better, or at least they're appreciated more as they get older.
