HowItIs Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Hard to believe that it's been on this long. I remember the crude cartoon on the Tracey Ullman Show and even the Life In Hell books. Matt Groening rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rushgoober Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I remember when people were walking around with those bootleg Simpsons t-shirts that were ultra-popular for a short while before the official Simpsons camp clamped down (or tried to) on them because the bootleggers were making so much money off them. And that was in 1989/1990! Damn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Union 5-3992 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I love the show up until the 14th season. Then it's a bit of a downward spiral. But other than South Park, it is the only show I've ever seen that stayed fresh up until Season 14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that was in 1989/1990! Damn! I used to wear a "Don't Have A Cow Man!" shirt at that time when I was about 9 or 10. I was actually Bart's age when that show first premiered. Too bad I have to wait until tomorrow to download 500 (and Family Guy) because I'm dropping my out of town sister and bro-in-law at Long Beach airport the same time.

Lost In Xanadu Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I loved the Simpsons and they had a couple weak seasons, but the last few have been pretty good again. Ok Simpson fans - top 3 episodes? 1. Boy Scoutz N The Hood 2. Homer The Vigilante 3. Deep Space Homer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Union 5-3992 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 1. Marge VS The Monorail 2. You Only Move Twice 3. Fourway tie between: Lisa The Vegitarian, Homer Goes to College, Mr. Plow, and Home Sweet Homediddly-Dum-Doodily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(257) HOMR - where they find the reason Homer is dumb is the crayon lodged up his nose? (266) Trilogy of Error - Homer loses his thumb and Lisa creates Liguo - this one may be in my top 10 of all time, just based on the way it's told from each family member's different perspective.

invisible airwave Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 ^That homage to The Departed a few years ago was good. Family Guy has gone south as well, though, with the exception of Stewie/Brian centered episodes. Those are still awesome. Bob's Burgers owns both currently and it's a shame that nobody's watching that show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReRushed Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 My favorite animated shows are Archer and The Venture Bros.. I do think, at its peak, The Simpsons is probably the greatest animated show of all-time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
