The Simpsons was never about being quality animation, it was about snappy dialog between characters and witty writing.

Yeah, but when you compare this too the older episodes you can tell how lazy they've gotten.

>>84539253
Did they have to redo their first episodes because it looked too animated?

>>84539253

These have gotten shitty too

Has it? Season 1 has a few oddly fluid moments, but OP is about the same level of quality as S2 onward.

I know Matt wasnt happy with the wacky Looney Tunes animation

Old Simpsons animation is actually very underrated. Lots of great angles, great slapstick, great visual gags, often imaginative and taking advantage of the medium, very distinct style. It holds up a lot better than most cartoons from that era. Try and show me otherwise.

Fun fact! This short is in fact a recycled scene from a episode. Only the dialog in the beginning is different

Is Matt Groening the George Lucas of cartoons?
