Fun Stuff > ENJOY

Remember when The Simpsons was funny?

<< < (5/8) > >>

Johnny C:
I think I agree with Nihilist that the show hit its stride around the fourth or fifth season; the first seasons were great but from about 4th til 9th the show's episodes were consistently brilliant.

Mikintosh:
Actually, my favorite episodes were around the 8th through 13th (-ish) seasons; while the stuff before it was hilarious too, I think it hit its maturity around then, and I responded to those seasons a little better. I still think the show's pretty good for one that's been on the air consistently for 17 years, but it'd probably be best for it to go out with a bang as previously said within in the net couple of years.

Just my two cents, while I can see how people can be Futurama fans, anyone who says it's better than the Simpsons can't have seen enough of the later, 'cause it's a lot more consistent.

Will:
I don't necessarily say that Futurama is better than the Simpsons, but I like Futurama more...for some reason it just makes me laugh more than The Simpsons did; I'll laugh at the same Futurama episode I've seen 30 times before, and it's just as funny...some of the Simpsons - especially the later episodes - start to wear out their hilarity after a few viewings

happybirthdaygelatin:
Wait a minute.  Did someone a couple posts back in this thread say the Simpsons was trying to cash in on Family Guy?  That is utter shit.

I agree that the Simpsons has peaked and has not been as funny but weird random one-ff was done first and best by the Simpsons.

ALoveSupreme:
Brilliant in its hayday, pathetic and unwatchable for at least 6 or 7 years now.

Inlander's second paragraph towards the top of the thread put it perfectly, and the comment about "hey, this is the joke now you should be laughing" was dead on as well.
