Honestly, The Simpsons makes me cry. There's something about those first ten or so seasons that captured a feeling that no other show has been able to capture since. And it's devastating to see what the show has become nearly twenty seasons later.
I can't watch the current seasons anymore. It's way too detached from what the series initially was made for. The initial Flanderization was okay, but the eventual Flanderization of every character on the show was too much.
I just want it to die. I wish it died at Behind the Laughter. I miss The Simpsons.

No one understands what I mean when I say the Simpsons felt like real people, more so then most comedy shows On,before, and especially after its golden run. Plus the pacing of joke after joke made the show just so fucking good.
>>63079251
JUST
>>63079282
yeah this
like real people
yeah
dat season 3-8 feel
I feel like it'd be appropriate to watch the first eight seasons and then kill myself to that season's finale. Be a pretty comfy death Tbh.

>good ones
its just such a real show man
Some of those prime seasons are really emotionally honest in ways that other shows can't pull off. Shit like Homer's choices in "Maggie Makes Three"--its such a nuanced take on the sacrifices an everyday father makes for his family. Kinda makes me tear up desu senpai. I think the show is just so good at showing the rich depths and quiet dignity in middle class american life.

Dysfunctional, selfish, but at the end of the day still looking out for one another.
>>63079251
What the fuck man
I feel like in their best episodes you could pretty easily forget you were watching a tv show. It just felt like aj extension of life.
this scene from zombie simpsons was depressing because it shows just how ridiculous and pathetic zombie homer is

Yeah.
It's a comfy feel. A sort of intimacy. King Of The Hill achieves a similar effect but it's not quite the same.

Why does no one here talk about Futurama? That show was pretty good before it got cancelled
>>63078860
Now realise that Western Civilization is The Simpsons of civilizations and that our golden age ended in 1914 and for the past century we've sleepwalked through a never ending senseless zombie version of our past, acting out all the motions but the spirit and reason for our existence, long gone. Only still alive because we don't yet know how to die.
>>63079282
All us OG fans that watched the early episodes back when they first aired understand.

>>63088314
the simpsons was never good. you are dwelling on the past. please grow up
Never got into Simspons until about 2 years ago when I got the first ten seasons for Christmas. There was a week with nonstop snow and everything was cancelled and I couldn't go anywhere so I just watched all of them. Greatest experience of my entire life
