Let it die a dignified death by making everything from season 10 onwards non-canon/just a coma dream Bart has/looking through the what-could-have-been machine.

But who in their right mind would say no to billions for basically doing nothing daring, creative or new?

Bring in Conan O'Brian as showrunner for a few seasons before ending the show.

Bring in J.J. Abrams to AU everything after season 10.

Only partially kidding -- it can't be worse than half the other ideas. Trying to recreate the past in situ would be a recipe for disaster, not least because many of the writers and producers have matured artistically (or died in Sam Simon's case).

>How do we fix this show?

You can't. When a show runs for this long and it's characters become pop culture icons, there's no coming back from it. You can't explore the characters anymore because they've become caricatures of themselves.

Every show reaches a natural point where it has to end, and The Simpsons hit that at the start of the millennium. There's nothing left to do but put it out of it's misery and learn from it.
>>
I think the worst part about the Simpsons last 15 years is that it's completely changed the shows legacy from the most top-tier comedy in tv to this hokey, lame show that nobody you know watches. People think it was always this bad and will ignore the great seasons because of it

The best way to fix it would be to travel back in time and make the "Behind the Laughter" episode the series finale.

There's no saving it. You don't come back from this. There's no way.

I dunno. The episode where Principal Skinner turns out to not actually be Principal Skinner really pisses me off. A clear indication they were running out of ideas if you ask me. A bad omen.

Jesus H Christ, really? Is that supposed to be funny? What a desperate and pathetic attempt to stay 'hip' and 'relevant'.

So transparent, too. I think the LGBT community are probably the ones who should be the MOST offended.

It might upset me the most what they did to Bart. He used to be a really smart kid, could often match Lisa in terms of brains and was in some ways more inventive and ingenuitive than her. He just had no initiative or self-discipline.

But at some point, they decided to turn him into a complete fucking retard. Basically a little Homer clone. It was around the time of the episode where Lisa finds out there is a "stupid gene" in her family that makes all the men idiots. Decent episode overall but the Bart retconning makes it borderline unwatchable for me.
>>
>>70093595
It was around that time the,heh, flanderization of the characters began to really become noticeable I believe.
>>
>>70093842

Same season where Flanders' wife died and he suddenly became a strange pervert? Also around the time he gets married to a hooker in Vegas?

>>
The ep where Marge accidentally gets breast implants was when I officially stopped watching the show. I'm thinking that was around Season 15. It'd been pretty bad for awhile, but that episode was just so completely not clever in the way The Simpsons once was. Just a bunch of really dumb potty humor jokes about how all the guys in town really like Marge all the sudden, hardy har har. I think it was a few seasons after that when I started hearing about the guest star thing getting completely out of hand. And the Kesha song... good lord. I pity anyone who continued watching up to or beyond roughly S20 or so.
>>
>>70093451
No, that picture has a smidgen of misinformation. Homer was imagining how bad his family's accidents would be while they're uninsured and then imagines his wife hooking up with some lesbian in town when she's the only surviving family member. I don't know why they made shit up when new Simpsons is bad enough.
>>
He has to do 33 seasons, or the Stone Cutters will tie him to the stone of shame.
>>
>>70086565
No they weren't. Season 9 is up to debate about if it was good or not while Season 10 was clearly more bad than good for the first time ever and after that it just went to complete shit.

You go watch American Dad instead.

>>
>>70094890
It isn't an opinon. From Season 10 I could say that they were only like 5-10 good episodes which were less than half the season, from Season 9 I could see having 12-15 good episodes with some others being on the egde of being good or bad like "the principal and the pauper" depending on the person you ask them.

There's literally the same image for family guy with the new characters literally being the same descriptions as these. It's wild.

Also that tom Brady episode was Top tier. Tom Brady's way of bragging was hilarious. Sadgasm was ok too.
