Has the Simpsons run its course?

Poll question


“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.”

The writers are definatly running short on ideas and have had to recycle them, but the thing is, I think they have done a really job doing so. I still really enjoy it.

It's a very diffrent show compared to what it was 10 years ago, but it's still all quality if you ask me.

Nah. Thing is, I don't go out of my way to watch it that much anymore because I know it will be in syndication rather soon. I still enjoy it a lot though.

God yes.

All the new episodes just scream "trying too hard". Like every joke is over-emphasized, and everything is made too simple and it's just stupid. Like if you look at stuff from I dunno, season 4 or something, the jokes are a lot funnier because they're not like yelling and stuff all the time.

Also, this is just my opinion, but it seems to me like the show's trying to copy the whole Family Guy type approach. The episodes don't really seem to have any real meaning, and they're doing nothing to make you care about any of the characters anymore. Like everything on the show is just one big non-stop joke and full of sarcastic humor and stuff like that. I don't particularly enjoy the 'sentimental' stuff, but it seems really bland without at least some of it.

I don't think that its run its course. Thing is that the episodes that they are putting out are good, but its hard to watch them without comparing them to the great seasons and thus they look like shit in comparison.

Yeah, some of the new episodes are just awful, even if they still have their moments. A hiatus might do them some good, since it'd be a shame to see the series finish forever.

Ever since Groening stopped paying attention to it (like, 6 years ago or so) it's been slipping. Homer is an abusive asshole, Bart is an ADD poster child, Lisa is Queen Bitch and...meh, I could go on all day. They should've killed it off a while ago, it's just fizzling out to nothing now.

It's not as good as it used to be, but it's still better than 90% of the comedies on TV right now.

Nowhere near it used to be, and I think it really sucks hard now.

Occasionally they make you laugh, but theres nothing memorable there anymore. I recently saw the Simpsons episode where they travelled the England. Great I thought. I get to watch the Simpsons go to the country I live in. Gotta be good right?

Wrong. It was boring, unfunny and gave a stereotypical view of the English.

Axe it now before it loses even more credability.

Yea, it definitely has run it's course. I watched it for the first time in a long time the other night, and it was garbage. Aside from a couple laughs from Milhouse, the episode was one of those "lets spoof history again" and such. The show is just like an old dog now, waiting to be put to sleep.

I'm going to have to go with yes. As much a sI love the Simpsons I think that after this long it's time to let go. Man..I miss that awsome Sunday lineup that there was on Fox...Simpsons, Family Guy then X-Files.

I am a massive Simpsons fan and as much as I hate to say it, it's run its course. TheNamelessOne was right, they should just axe it now. If it carries on it will be forever known as a programme that sucked in its later years when it would have been so much better to stop running it on a high so it would keep it's credibility, to let it burn out instead of fade away. They're currently relying on guest stars and far fetched plots to pull ratings, they just need to let it die with dignity.

It's almost done so I wouldn't worry about it too much. Give it the movie to finish it off and even when it's over it will be one of, if not the, best cartoons ever created.

I'll be sad to see it leave when it does.

Yeah, I think it has.

I was looking forward to the episode in England and when i watched it, it was aweful. It was just like they were trying to put as many cameos from famous English people in a 30 minute show for no reason, it didn't really make much sense and wasn't funny.

Like Tony said, the way the characters are now they just aren't funny when they do the jokes because they try and emphisise it too much. Its just like they've run out of good ideas.

I'd say no but that's because we get the new episodes later than in the U.S and Canada.I've heard some new ones are quite poor so if they live up to that billing and you mean 'run its course' as in no new ones then i'd agree,but i definetly think the older episodes are funny/good enough to be kept on T.V.

Mostly because the syndicated ones tend to be older, I'd guess.

I watch the Simpsons 3 times a weekday. Someone mentioned Sunday's episode, which is what prompted me to post this...Another "Tall Tales" episode was just not what we needed to Spark interest. It was cool the first time, good the second time, and then it was kinda lame the thirs time. You know, almost on the same level as the ever-clichéd clip show.

That's not to say I don't still laugh, but they don't seem to come up with much new to replace the jokes that have been run into the ground.

If they end it, how do you think they should end it?

Aren't they supposed to end with a movie? I've heard somewhere.
