Yikes, I love the Simpsons but they are out of ideas. Maybe 1 last season to wrap it all up.

I was 19 and still had hopes and dreams when this show started?
It’s still running and my hopes and dreams are in the attic collecting dust :)

At least 500! I’ve been watching the Simpsons since they were just tiny part of The Tracey Ullman Show.

I cannot believe this show show has been on since I was 10!

I’m just 3 years away from turning 40.

Maybe I’m the odd man here, but for the life of me I cannot fathom why anyone watches the show.

The first ten years were all great. But they have gone downhill since and gone from being even handed with politics to far left.

Will recently deceased cousin Elton al Jihadi Simpson have a role in the show?

I haven’t watched much of it since the 90’s. I have a question for Simpson Fans though... they clearly established that Homer was a teenager in the 1970’s and got married in the early to mid 80’s.

Now that it’s gone on so long, do they say he was a teen in the 90’s, or are they still having the 1970’s as the days he was a teen?

Does that make it the longest running show ever?

They jumped the shark at about the 8th season. It went downhill when Phil Hartman was murdered. The original writers quit. The rest of the good writers left for Futurama. I haven’t been able to sit through any of the recent episodes.

Marge and Homer graduated in 1974. That would make them old enough to be putting in for retirement soon. (I dated a guy who graduated in ‘74 back in the 70’s)

Since Bart was “unexpected” and his presence forced his parents nuptials, let’s say he was born in 1975 - 1976 at the latest. This means that Bart, (and Lisa) are in their early 40’s Maggie, late 30’s.

I watch the originals on Tracy Ullman in the late 1980’s. With my oldest child, who is now 34!!

Thank God for animated kids who don’t age.!

There are adults alive today who weren’t born when The Simpsons was still funny and relevant.

They’re approaching Lawrence Welk Record.

The Irish have an all Gaelic television channel, very funny to see The Simpsons translated into Gaelic.
