I'm expecting a few bottles hurled at me, and a few pats on the back. It seems we've missed this gem when discussing some of the greatest sitcoms. I know it's animated, but at it's peak the Simpsons swept anything aside, and consistently produced belly laughs that I think no other show has achieved before or since.
It's lost it's magic though. Its' a combination of Sky or Channel 4 constantly churning out repeats (that I still sit and watch even though I have seen them thousands of times)and the writing in the more recent series standard has dropped, with laughs fewer on the ground, and the story lines increasingly disjointed.
With the long awaited (dreaded?) Simpsons Movie looming on the horizon, should Mr Groening use that as a full stop to the show, hopefully go out with a bang, and concentrate on the fresher Futurama?
I'm stood behind chicken wire, so theres no point in throwing large bottles.
