The Official Simpsons Griefing Thread

[Francis E. Dec Esc.]

I just watched an episode about Moe's bar rag. Why does this exist?

That episode sucked, but at least it was a change of pace from the worn out 'Homer gets a new job/The Simpsons meet $celebrity_name/The Simpsons go somewhere' formula.

The Simpsons go somewhere'

Is there a list or map of all the places they've gone?

In the good episodes, "the Simpsons are going to ___" sometimes happened, but it wasn't overused and the story gave a good reason. You notice that it got more frequent in Zombie Simpsons, when the writers lost the creativity that was in the old show.

Outside of Cape Feare and The City of New York VS Homer Simpson are there good episodes where the Simpsons go somewhere else? All I can think of is the China one, the Florida one, and the grand canyon one and they all suck.

I like the Australia one. Can't think of any recent travel episodes I cared for.

I like the Japan one, but only because it gave us this scene:

Edit: And the ones where they move to Capital City and Cypress Creek.

There was the one where Apu and Homer went to India to get Apu's job back. Despite being a travel and celebrity cameo episode (James Woods), it was still a good episode.

Mostly because the India part is only a small fraction of the episode.

God Lisa episodes are the worst, how could anything beat that in magnitude of suckage and unfunniness?

*watches new Family Guy episode*

Oh. Oh dear...

Mr. Lisa Goes To Washington is p good

Remember US politics before Trump Derangement Syndrome and identity politics? When the US government wasn't paranoid of terrorism? That episode is a look back to that now.

I like that one when Mad Max characters started persecuting them.

".......LIIIIIISA!"
".....MMMMMMarge!"

 

[Stab You in the Back]

The London one was terrible, but Homer's line here never fails to crack me up.

(I may have quoted this in every country on earth except America)

I just watched seasons 23 and 24. Season 24 is the shittyest of the shit seasons so far.

I pretty much stopped watching after season 10. I know Edna, Hutz, and Troy are gone among other developments. Like Bart doesn't remember the 90s anymore, Homer was in the band "Sadgasm" in that 90s college retcon, Maude Flanders was killed off, and the jokes now are practically "this is a joke and this is why it should be funny."

But just how different is the show now vs season 10? What other changes were made?

Isn't Lisa bi?

It's one of the future episodes though, so maybe it's not canon

Plus college, so you could claim experimentation.

Bart's certainly taking the right approach there.

I guess Edna and Ned was a couple in a few episodes and I don't know what they're going to do now the voice actor is dead. Bart was going out with one of cletus' kids. Pretty much meh and/or flat-line humor wise. I only laughed once or twice a season. I'm just watching them for free shits and giggles, mostly just for shit.

Just not acknowledge Springfield Elementary apparently.

Edna died in the show offscreen. To the show's credit, they did a respectful farewell to the character, but the show's been struggling to get a replacement teacher ever since (I think Ned has replaced her last I heard).
