I'm watching my first post 2015 Simpsons episode.

Does Julie Kavner want to lose her voice? Marge Simpsons stupid, scratchy voice sounds absolutely terrible.

Like it sounds like Patty & Selma have a triplet whose far worse with the cigarettes.

What would you say is the absolute cut-off point where it turns into Zombie Simpsons (tm)?

Although I like to think of 10 as the last good season, if you put it that way, then I say somewhere after 10. There's still some good stuff in season 11, for example. But by the time of the movie or that one episode where Homer and Marge go to college in the '90s, the episodes are consistently "crappingly new" to me.
 
You ever noticed that since Matt Groening was found in Jeffery Epstein’s attendance book that the quality of The Simpsons has faltered? Not to bring up Epstein for the millionth time, but I’ve noticed that even the anti-Trump and anti-Republican jokes seem forced and out of place, like an SNL sketch that has Alec Baldwin’s anger issues.
 
Here's the spoilers for Treehouse of Horror XXXI this Sunday. Don't read if you want to be spoiled but you're not missing anything.

​

Opening segment​

It's election day in Springfield, and people are voting at Springfield Elementary. Marge is calling Homer to his duty to vote, while he's on his hammock. Homer gets into the cabin, trying to decide, when Lisa appears, making him think about all that happened on Donald Trump's period of presidency, but he just dreamed of voting, and one year after, the whole city is burning, and Homer is standing on his house armed. While Hans Moleman gets ambushed by a robot, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse appear over the city.

Toy Gory​

Marge asks Bart if he's boxing his toys to sell for charity, and Bart says he's saying good bye to them, but Bart has other plans: he destroys them in many possible ways, between explosions and distortions. When he is done, Marge gives him a Radioactive Man toy.
When Bart leaves the new toy alone, he comes to life, and Krusty's doll shows him what happened to all the other toys. Bart then plays with both, putting Radioactive Man in a microwave, destroying it. The other toys reunite to form a plan to revenge him after a funeral in his honor.
The toys drag Bart out of the door and in a room, where they reveal themselves to be alive and kill him, using plastic surgery done by Dr. Malibu Stacy. They transformed him into a toy and left him at the tree in front of the house, where Lisa find hims.
The family brings him at Dr. Hibbert's Studio, where he shows them how they converted him. This marked his end, as now toys are the ones playing with his lifeless body, forever.

Into the Homer-verse​

It's Halloween at the Power Plant and Marge calls Homer to bring the candies home, however he ate them all at work. In a search for more, he ends up in a secret room for high clearance people only.
Homer finds a machine in it, but when it doesn't accept his quarter in the USB port, he tackles it, making it explode, and from it, multiple Homers appear, from different universes. Next on Channel 6 News, Kent Brockman shows various results of the 6 Homers in town.
Marge opens a can of Duff Beer to bring them home, and Lisa explains with a song how Homer opened a hole in the space-time continuum. When Bart jokes around him, Homer tries to strangle him, only to find himself transforming into more Homers.
Lisa realizes what's happening and how the situation could turn tragic, so she tells the Homer to recreate the explosion that brought them here to fix it, but Mr. Burns stops them, saying they'd be the ultimate form of cheap undocumented labor, with a vomiting frog as prize for it.
The Homer refuses, so Burns bring out his and Smithers alternates and a fight begins, leaving the Homers dead, but when Burns discovers in Smithers Noir's universe he's Smithers' assistant, Burns sends them back into the machine. In the end Marge is left with Homer Noir, the only one she wanted, but he transforms into Green cat Homer and escapes.

Be Nine, Rewind​

It's Lisa's 9th birthday, half way to adulthood. When she comes down to the party, Sherri and Terri makes her realize it's a party for losers, and asks for somebody to kill her, when a car comes through the window hitting her.
But she suddenly wakes up back in her room, and relives the last few minutes again, having her change fate by placing Milhouse in front of the car, driven by Gil, doing his driving test with Patty.
Nelson grabs her arm and brings her under Bart's treehouse, when they get crushed by it. She wakes up again at the start, getting angry and saying she can solve it, but that causes the roof to fall on her, killing her again. She this time knocks on her desk softly, but knocks the mirror on herself.
On the next return, Nelson reveals himself to be a returner too, but he falls in a woodchipper when trying to high-five her. She kills herself too upon realizing she needs to return so Nelson could live but he tells her too late that there's an alternative.
More deaths happen, by being burnt by the cake's candles, to stabbing themselves with the knife, and then crushed by the air conditioner. They find out that the only way to solve the loop is to get help from Comic Book Guy. He proposes a series of solutions based on movies but they tried all of them.
In the end they find out that the only way is to kill Gil before he could crash into the house, so they throw him a brick and succeed. Lisa returns home to celebrate her birthday without consequences, except for Ralph's head being turned the opposite direction.
 
This is the first year I missed the Halloween special. I'm so done with this show. It was the racist recasting that finally did it for me.

What if Epstein was the guy behind every centrist opinion in mainstream media? Like he was the guy forcing literally commies to say "both sides are the same/we can mock both sides" and now that hes gone that entire network of good pedos has to bow down to the commie revolution

Man, that takes me back to the early 2000's when football would preempt damn near everything and the Treehouse of Horror episodes would always premiere on the first Sunday of November...

Highly doubtful, otherwise the Woke Left wouldn't have gone apeshit on the media as early as they did.

Nah, the "centrist opinions in mainstream media" was the result of both the Cold War souring the Boomers and Generation X towards communism, anarchism, and socialism and the Religious Right/Neocons being such totally overbearing autistic fuckwads that the liberals, leftists, lolbertarians, and centrists/moderates all had one big enemy to unify against in the post-Cold War era.

Halloween isn't over until the simpsons say it is!
 
I'm watching "Treehouse of Horror XXXI" right now since it wasn't pre-empted by sports on City TV in Canada and I DVR'd it (but didn't watch it last night as I was out grocery shopping and didn't get back until it was half-over).

Just general thoughts and number ratings, no major spoilers.

Intro: 0/10 (The usual cringe Democrat propaganda you get in the intro once every four years)
Toy Gory: animation 9/10 story 5/10 (needed a few more minutes than it actually got, like most segments in modern anthology episodes due to how long the ad breaks are compared to 30 years ago)
Into the Homer-Verse: 6/10 (pretty much "Attack of the Homer Clones" from THoH XIII redux but the alternate Homers were more interesting)
Be Nine, Rewind: 5/10 (promising idea but the resolution to the timeloop doesn't make any sense unless Lisa starts going back in time to before the start of the initial time loops, so more Butterfly Effect rules than Edge of Tomorrow rules, I guess)
Overall: 5/10 Not the worst THoH ever but in the bottom 3rd.
