When did you realize she's everything wrong with this show?

When did you realize she's everything wrong with this show? She's quite possibly the worst character in the entire series.
>>
>>71432795
That's not Homer
>>
She sums up every person that is too smart for their own good.

A necessary part of the show IMO.
>>
The episode where she ruins the barbecue and she still manages to make Homer apologise to her.

This was the point in which she became the absolute worst animated character of all time.
>>
>>71433524
Even as a kid that shit pissed me right the fuck off. Just her facial expression as she did it.

She's barely a character at all. She's a ridiculous mouthpiece amalgamation of everything the writers, underappreciated geniuses themselves, believe they stand for, with a pathetic "friendless nerd" joke here and there to lampshade it
>>
Lisa episodes were never good, so it took me a while to clue into the fat that her character was getting worse.

>That one episode where Lisa stops believing in Christianity and converts to Buddhism because the seats at the church were too comfortable for her.
>>
Shes just a love-interest for Milhouse

It gets really embarrassing when the writers actually begin swapping Bart and Lisa's roles, because though it's obvious Bart is dumber, he originally had fast-talking/smartass qualities that they eventually started considering unacceptable: They just NEED every other character to be unequivocally and utterly inferior than Lisa in each and every possible way and context.

Pic related is a scene (from the Marge gets boobs episode) which I honestly believe was originally written with their roles literally reversed and hastily changed down the line. Everything about it feels wrong, with Lisa being the one that sibling-torments Bart and the one who gets the silly standup-style joke
>>
Why is her dress strapless, and so low cut? I just noticed this.
>>
>>71432795
>applying your SJW hatred retroactively on a cartoon character that was created before you were born

I didn't start hearing this shit until recently. All through my youth, and through my teenage years, I never heard people talk shit on Lisa. Then all of a sudden it's the rebel thing to hate 'liberals' (which really aren't liberal nor socialist) and I hear this shit. And this isn't the same dislike about the show's quality, this is a specific thing. She's always been criticised as being too left, not the same thing.
>>
>>71434967
She's a horrible mary sue. It has nothing to do with SJW hate. She's gone through a form of flanderization.
>>
Lisa was only ever good when paired with Homer or when Milhouse was trying to ask her out. I don't watch newer episodes but from what I've heard, Homer is not a lovable idiot anymore and is a straight asshole and the Milhouse joke ran dry a long time ago but they're still throwing it in there.
>>
>>71432795
I hate her voice. Bart's pass but his laugh has always annoyed me even when I was big into the Simpsons. I gotta watch some episodes to refuel my disdain for soapbox Lisa.
>>
To be fair early simpsons Lisa was good. She had some unpleasant qualities but actually acted like and wasn't outright unbearable.
>>
>>71436814
*actually acted like a kid
>>
>>71434942
it actually is pretty low huh
>>
What are some good Lisa episodes?

Homer taking Lisa to the Museum is the only one I can think of off the top of my head
>>
Man the new episodes are pretty bad.
>>
>>71432795
>tfw tons of girls grew up with lisa as their role model, and now they are all 30-somthing social media shrews acting like a 10 year old SJW
>>
>>71434797
yeah made me sick to my stomach to watch lisa actually win fight and bully bart, WTF is that?
>>
>>71434797
I hate Lisa but you're wrong. It's a joke referencing Harvard endowments. Why would Bart know how much money Harvard gets?
>>
Tbh, I wouldn't mind Lisa if she was highschool or college aged, but the fact that she's 7 and acts and talks like a 20 year old is quite jarring.
>>
>>71434967
You're a retarded cunt. I was nine when I started getting angry at Lisa's vegetarianism in 1995. Do have down syndrome? What the fuck makes you think people haven't been aware of liberalism and conservativism forever? You must be underage, don't post again.
>>
>>71432795
It's true, apart from the flanderisation of all the characters, she has shitty qualities on top of that which only came through in the latter seasons:
>never wrong
>turned from gifted child into genuine savant in anything academic
>liberal mouth piece
>never wrong
>sometimes is just a bitch for no reason (instead of sweet, but vengeful how she used to be)
>'that look' where she's insufferably smug
>never wrong
>holier than thou
>pushed as a flawed character/nerd (in the bad way) through shitty, flaccid LMAO NO FRIENDS jokes every few episodes to rmined people that she's really a social outcast, no really guys, no seriously believe us she's a flawed person
>oh and also she's NEVER WRONG
>>
the fact that the voice actor for Lisa threatened to quit if she didn't contractually get a certain number of shitty Lisa episodes a year is enough to make me hate her for the rest of my life.
>>
>>71437452
Would you say she's sometimes wrong about stuff?
>>
it's funny because there's that episodes where Bart plays football and she shows up like "I'm a girl!" and they already have girls so she just tries to find anything to complain about on her moral high horse.

And then the writers actually turned her into that unironically.
>>
>>71437452
all of those only came with the later seasons
>>
>>71437567
NEVER
>>
>>71437694
yeah, sorry that was my point, she has become a shitty character in the later seasons
>>
>>71437452
>The Lisa who shook Bart in his sleep and kept saying "FIRST PRIZE! FIRST PRIZE" to fuck with him is gone

the simpsons have been worse longer than they've been good. not even one of the original VA leaving was enough to kill the show.

It really is heartbreaking how shit the show is now. The new writers obviously have no idea how to use the characters and humor they inherited from the old ones and just go for the Reddit audience.
>>
A good and a necessary character with lots of great moments.

Your own fault if tou watch modern Simpsons, idiots.
>>
>Lisa, did I ever tell you about when you were into religion and were very worried about me stealing cable tv and going to hell for committing sin?
>You were a good daughter
>>
>>71432795
I think the newest Simpson-related thing I've seen is the movie. She was alright in that. How bad has she become since?
>>
>>71438868
insufferable
>>
>>71436624
i hate marge's voice more, it's so damn grating and if you watch the newer seasons (yeah i know) it's even worse like throat cancer tier
>>
>>71436985
Lisa the Greek
Lisa the iconoclast
Lisa's rival
Lisa's sax
I love Lisa
Lisa's pony

She really was a decent character up until the episode Lisa the treehugger where she tries to impress that vegan hippie douche.
>>
>>71434967

She isn't the same as she was 20 years ago.

Remember in the vegetarian episode when after she flew off the handle, Apu had a talk with her and told her that you need to be tolerant of other people's lifestyles and that no one's going to like you if you act like a cunt about your beliefs?

Do you think it would've had that message today?
>>
People still watch this fucking show?
>>
I fapped to imagining myself shoving my cock down her throat and shutting her up when I was 12
I came
>>
>>71441037
That's hot
>>
>>71432795
what? no, are you retarded?
>>
I am still waiting for the official transgender episode where they put either maggie or lisa on horomone blockers
>>
This thread is ridiculous. Lisa never did anything wrong. In fact it's amazing she developed as well as she did, given how stupid and dysfunctional her entire family is. I really wish you mental midget /pol/tards would stay your containment board.
>>
>>71433728
>She's barely a character at all. She's a ridiculous mouthpiece amalgamation of everything the writers, underappreciated geniuses themselves, believe they stand for, with a pathetic "friendless nerd" joke here and there to lampshade it

It sounds like TV going the way of a bad webcomic
>>
>>71432795
I was a young lad,10 or 11 in age. I remember thinking "what the fuck is her problem?" Then I went on to find out that women characters are the worst part of most shows.
