[Deja Q]

(The 18th Halloween special is on tonight...)

1. They still make me laugh....

maybe not every episode, but still....

[sasquatch]

2. Still a good and relevant show after all these years

[Release The Hounds]

3. Dead since 1999

[Maestro]

4. Great stuff

They blew up a Repube convention in Springfield and made reference to a GI Joe doll with insufficient armor.

[Lady Freedom]

8. That was GREAT!

The GI JOE doll joke made me chock on my beer and then ended up going out my nose at the The convention scene! :spray:

5. They have the world record for shark jumping.

And they'll keep jumping while the cash register keeps ringin'

[Deja Q]

6. Like Madonna, The Simpsons keeps updating itself for the times...

I wonder when The Simpsons will be nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame(tm)... they qualify just as much as Madonna...

[Esra Star]

7. Careful now, you might give them ideas. nt

[skyblue]

9. Simpsons have great quotes. nt

10. Been dead for years...

The exact instant it died was immediately after the last funny episode "They Saved Lisa's Brain" -May 9th, 1999.

RIP

11. The Simpsons seems funnier with each episode of Family Guy

Maybe it's just a relative thing, insofar as anything compared to Family Guy will seem freaking hysterical, but there you have it.

12. My sediments exactly

:thumbsup:

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

14. Say, were you one of the people being interviewed on Family Guy?

[Dukkha]

13. only not as good as their own past

still better than the rest of the prime time crap...that is until Futurama returns next year!

[Orrex]

16. Guh!?!

Is this true? First I've heard of it!

This may be the best news since I found out that my Chinese take-out really was chicken!

[Dukkha]

18. yup! 13 new episodes to air on Comedy Central

20. I am so excited about this!

IMHO, Futurama was always far superior to The Simpsons, and those bastards at Fox cancelled it right when it was hitting its stride. I'm glad it's coming back for a second chance. :)

[Rambis]

15. Never seen it-

I also have never seen one second of Survivor, South Park or the hundreds of reality shows that people in my office talk about every Monday around the water cooler. I have heard the simpsons are funny though.

[Shell Beau]

17. Still good but Family Guy has taken its place as my favorite cartoon!

[racaulk]

19. The second-best animated show that Matt Groening has made.

But it's still pretty good.

:)

21. they played the treehouse of horror from last year which ended

with the absolutely BRILLIANT commentary on the iraq war.

that was just last year! Every time i think they're loosing it, they redeem themselves. the show is every bit is quick and sharp as it was in the heyday, imho.

[Orsino]

22. I won't watch Fox...

...but I hear good things.
