this type of show is only good in small doses
a movie will ruin it

lmao it's on it's 18th season.

I think the term "small doses" is out the window by now.

lol yeh but 30 minutes and 2+hours... ah

Matt Groening did once say that if they made a movie he would end the series.

This could very well be the way he's decided to end it.

I just saw the Cape Fear episode.

So, so good and so much better then new Simpsons.

Hopeful about the movie however.

That's supposed to be their best episode.
I'm inclined to agree.
[info]jeun 13th-Nov-2006 01:21 pm (UTC)

[info]lilclerk 13th-Nov-2006 07:38 pm (UTC)
It's scary.

The only thing that could save this movie is that I've heard some of the older writers are doing it.

The show should've bowed out gracefully 6 years ago, really.

I don't really have a response, I just wanted to use my Simpsons icon.
[info]jenjen1026 14th-Nov-2006 07:20 am (UTC)
hahahha I love when Homer says that
[info]ilovestarburst 13th-Nov-2006 02:08 pm (UTC)
Ehhh...I still don't have that much hope for it. :/

The 'feel' of the show has definitely changed. Now it's like they're just making more episodes for the sake of doing so.

That said, I'd definitely be sad when they stop making it.

People still care about The Simpsons?
[info]eronanke 13th-Nov-2006 02:12 pm (UTC)
The show jumped the shark over 6 years ago.
LET IT DIE
