Honestly, the final scene of the series finale being a shot-for-shot remake of "Good Night" would actually be kind of neat.

Yes. My idea is that Bart and Lisa become somewhat self aware. They ask their parents what year it is and they say, "1987? 1993? 2002?" and "Who's the president?" "Bush... Clinton... no, Bush!"
And then they find Professor Frink and he explains that they're in a time warp and will never age and Springfield will never change.
The Simpsons are initially terrified of this, but gradually learn to accept it.
Then you can have them play Scrabble and Bart spells KWIJIBO.

Futurama did this with Meanwhile where they get stuck in a time vortex and the professor explains the only way to fix it is to go back to the beginning and do it all over again. It worked pretty well as a finale.
 
As autistic and retarded as this is, I've been thinking about what I said earlier about my idea for the final season of The Simpsons and how I'd go about it. Honestly, if Disney and Fox were smart and not the turbo-woke nightmare they are today, I'd make a huge to-do of it to help build the hype.

Start off with a post-credits teaser at the season finale that shows the typical opening clouds from the intro but it says "The Simpsons: The Final Act"

Then about a week later, make announcements that Apu is coming back one last time and that Hank Azaria is reprising a lot of his older roles since this is going to be the definitively final season of the show and will be television history.

If they're still worried about Woke Twitter, they can probably pay off some older activist talking heads to give their seal of approval.

Then do a series social media campaigns and maybe even an ARG or two for the turbo-spergs all throughout the summer to build the hype and do things to build goodwill with the fans. Have specials and retrospectives on Disney+ and Hulu and begin another "Every Simpsons Ever" Marathon for FXX so it can time up with the series finale.

As for The Final Act itself? Have it be done in blocks. The season would be 28 episodes, each one corresponding to a mini-story arc of sorts. Every Sunday, you'd get four episodes air on Fox and FXX and then it'd be available on Disney+ and Hulu the following Monday.

You might have to delay the debut so it doesn't get pre-empted by sports but since there won't be a specific Treehouse of Horror that year, it won't be as egregious.

The season would be a loose but more fleshed-out adaptation of The Simpsons: Hit & Run (generally considered the only Simpsons game that's actually good) with each story arc roughly coinciding to one of the game's seven levels and since this is the final season, it'll have a serialized plot with each arc having a specific antagonist.
 
Having revisited The Simpsons during its early years in conjuction with King of the Hill and Family Guy (in that same decade, 90s), the charm with cartoons like those was the sitcom approach.

Those kinds of cartoons were grounded in reality while allowing room to be creative thanks to the wonders of animation and imagination. Characters had character that you could relate to in everyday situations.

Having said that, The Simpsons is my least favorite of those two cartoons I named. It tried a balance of practicality with creativity that felt awkward. Family Guy then had the situations, King of the Hill had character development. The Simpsons tried both but couldn't reach that mark.

I think they should end it with some one-hour concept episode. Like The Way We Was, Behind the Laughter, Holidays of Future Passed or even a Treehouse of Horror. Those kinds episodes are the only ones I remember anyone give a shit about for at least 15 years. Instead of a last season, take a year to just work on that one episode and end on a high note.

While not a cartoon Dinosaurs is a 90’s sitcom show worth watching.
