You know, I never got the hatred for the post movie seasons that much.
I will agree on the fact that those seasons are weaker overall. But at the same time they still had some really good episodes here and there and funny moments even in episodes that sucked. Not to forget it was still overall of higher quality than Simpsons if you ask me.
sorry, but I was happy overall with what I got.

Some of the references are kind of on the nose and topical. The 3012 Martian Apocalypse shit and the EyePhone are good examples.

Though it feels a little weird to get worked up about topical references when the earlier seasons had Al Gore as a recurring guest star.

Eh I feel like topical references can be funny if they're well written. This one for example still slays me.

Yes it's me Al Gore. Author of Earth in the Balance and the much more popular Harry Potter and The Balance of Earth, here to talk to you about why we must save our planet from global warming as well as dark wizards.
 
No Simpsons until March now. Any yankee Kiwis want to enlighten us on the reason why?
 
It doesn't matter how bad the Simpsons gets, it will ALWAYS be more entertaining than fucking sports.
There's that. Hopefully it isn't another bit of trouble with the production side of things.
 
May not be a Yankee, but I'm betting it's because of sports.

Man, I remember getting PISSED as a kid when the new episodes of The Simpsons, King of the Hill, and/or Futurama got cut because of the Superbowl or the Oscars, or whatever went into overtime or some dipshit actor went over the speech time limit.
 
We truly live in the golden age of entertainment.

Edit: God help me, I've turned this thread into meme video shitposting. (:_(

I'm so glad Futurama ended before its legacy was tarnished. It's last two or three seasons after the movies were horrible. Full of Simpsons-like Apple references etc, losing all the charm of the earlier seasons... Though they did have a few good eps, e.g. Game of Tones ending.

The episodes on Fox were great (Seasons 1 to 4). After those don't bother. The DVD movies gave me cancer.
