Now, listen to me for a second. I don't mean to offend anyone in any way, and this is just my view. Personally, I've watched this show since I was eight-years-old. The Simpsons was such a witty show back then and had stories with creative transitions. For me, this show had plots that I was never able to predict. Right now, however, the plots just aren't as imaginative and creative as they used to be, and most of them are recycled. I can usually predict what will happen in an episode near its beginning now.

I watched alot of the simpsons growing up. It seems to have gotten stale. And their show has indeed become manipulative in its values and seems to sway away from core comedic roots. Now like many others like south park, the simpsons has become too involved in territory I dont believe any comedy should get involved in. Just because theres so much ill water.

The Simpsons are past their prime. I quit watching quite some time ago as the show has just become worn out. The producers, and writers aren't really making any effort, and haven't for quite a long time, in truly making the program worth watching any longer. Sad. FOX had a great show in FUTURAMA, and put absolutely nothing in it. Let it sit, and moulder, cancelled it, then just let it go, but keep this now unworthy program on artificial life-support! No understanding American television networks.
