I don't think this discussion is that serious, it should be moved.

I think it should have been cancelled like 5 years ago, at least it wouldn't be dry and tired now. Though at the same time I couldn't greive with losing Homer. sad.gif

Nothing's wrong with The Simpsons... Not like SouthPark (which is deemed 18+).

I have yet to see further episodes... It's always 2 or 3 seasons before it comes out in english, here... No one is particularely funny, though, it's just to show that's nice.


PS -- I dont know anyone that doesn't like The Simpsons tongue.gif. My parents says its childish and boring, by I often find them laughing at Homer or etc...

Simpsons should not be cancelled. It is a classic. Simpsons may be old, but it still rocks. Bart is funny. The Simpsons family is just like a real family.

I feel that the Simpsons has run out of ideas now. It was funny while it lasted, but now I've moved onto Futurama, which has such classic characters as Zap Brannigan. God he's funny (for the wrong reasons).

Simpsons are not that funny.

What's funny is FAMILY GUY!

Meg: (Talking to Chris) nice going, lardo! now we have to move to the South because of you!

Peter: What? I didn't do anything...!!

Meg: I was talking to Chris!

Peter: Oh.... ..... yeah, Lardo!

It obviously has to be seen to be found funny...

Zap Brannigan is funny because he has such a great comedy duo with his downtrodden assistant, Kiff. He also has a funny voice and mannerisms that make him funny when you see the show.

Example - this isn't as funny as it would be on screen:

Fry eats a 'just add water' pop-up tent pill and washes it down. The tent expands and pokes out of his mouth

Zap: What's the matter, private? Tent got your tongue?

laughs at his own joke

Zap: Eheheheh - tent got your tongue... Kiff - write that down and send it into humour in uniform.

Kiff: -.- (His face is the spitting image of that emoticon).


Ergh - has to be seen...

Here's another one:

(Whole community found Peter Griffin was black)

Peter drives down the road in his car, when a police chases after him.

Peter stops and the Police says:

"Get out of that stolen car, sir."

Peter:"What are you talking about? this is MY car?"

Police(Talking to walke Talke):"I need backup! The suspect is about to attack!"

Peter:" I'm serious! This is MY CAR!"

Police lays down on the ground and says:"Officer down"

Canceled is too strong of a word.

Should it end: Yes.

It has like 20 seasons (Don't say it doesn't I'm kidding)
After the first 2 it went down hill. They should really stop it. It makes me laugh on the inside. Other things make me burst out in tears. (SOUTH PARK!!)

Yes, it should. It is getting very old, it is not funny anymore, but it used to be a very funny show. And, the plot sucks in recent episodes:

"The Simpsons are going to (fill in the blank with country/state)!"
"Marge gets impants!"
"Moe babysits Maggie!"

These plots may have worked three years ago, but the humor and cleverness is gone. It has had a good run, it already has the title of the longest running primetime animated show. It needs to end.

I enjoy it, especially the old ones... and its not really the plot so much as just the hilariousness of it that matters to me... well I voted "Hell No"

They dont just say:

DUDE U SUCK LOL?

"Hell no!"
Why?
Yes, it has run dry, but what about people like me who haven't SEEN EVERY god damned episode and don't have money to buy videos or such?

As for Southpark, it's never made me laugh anymore than chuckle on a rare occasion.
Though, that's kind of unfair, since I've only seen a few episodes, but every Simpsons episode I've seen has made me laugh out loud.

Dont get me wrong, i love the Simpsons as much as any other guy, but they do need to be cancelled. They have run out of ideas and they should quit before they ruin the show and people get tired of them. They have had a good run, but its time to move on.

DEFINENTELY not!! It's an awesome show.

Even though it is gross sometimes...

It's still funny! biggrin.gif

Why should they cancel the Simpsons? Some people around here at least like it, and I don't find it objectionable.

As for Southpark, it may be objectionable but it's god damn funny. You can't beat South Park.. one of my favorite episodes is the one where Cartman has that hand puppet (or w/e you'd call it) called Jennifer Lopez.

Btw I voted for hell no.
