  • Confessions of a Former Simpsons Hater

    Jan 25 '01
    Pros: Brilliant satire of American life, whether we like it or not
    Cons: If you don't want your children to imitate Bart, be a PARENT...

    Summary: I was in High School when "The Simpsons" debuted, and was one of millions of people who cried out against it. The Simpson family was immoral, led by a lazy irresponsible lout of a father who let his animated family get away with everything. Homer is a ... read more

  • American Animated Aggravation ? no just The Simpsons dear

    Jan 12 '11
    Pros: Funny, gives a breather if your family is worse. Offers little educational value.
    Cons: Over-powering & Obnoxious father and son characters, under-developed female characters

    Summary: The year was 1989, I was married for the first time, and there was pretty much NOTHING good to watch on television a week or so before Christmas. So I turned on the television and lo and behold, being December 17th, it was ‘premiere night’ on ... read more

  • Eat My Shorts

    Apr 09 '08
    Pros: The best show on television, never gets boring.
    Cons: Some crude humor and mild language.

    Summary: The show that Americans are familiar with is The Simpsons. Who can forget this family. Every epidsode is full of laughs a well remembered phrases. This show is one of the longest running T.V. shows ever made. Everybody knows Homer, the dad of the ... read more

  • "Worst. Show. Ever!" (Far Hath the Mighty Fallen)

    Jun 17 '07
    Pros: Still exceptionally brilliant sometimes
    Cons: Sometimes

    Summary: Kurt Vonnegut once said writers are terrible conversationalists because they use up all their wit for their writing. Never was this more true for me than during a conversation I had last month with my friend Monica about The Simpsons. It was the day the ... read more

  • Taboo

    Feb 05 '07
    Pros: masterpiece of national animation (American)
    Cons: cruelty as the base of cartoon's idea and plot

    Summary: I don't like it. Simply - don't like and nobody can give me the right reason to think in other way. Rather ugly animated cartoons. Never be available for my children (of course if it depends on me). Maybe I'm very categorical, but I can only ... read more

  • Best. Show. Ever!

    Dec 31 '05
    Pros: FREAKING HILARIOUS!
    Cons: Not for the young or immature

    Summary: I can remember as a child being warned not to watch the Simpsons. That it was rotting the mind of teenagers and making kids act like Bart Simpson who was very disrespectful to his parents and that it was just bad bad bad... This prevented me from ... read more

  • The Best TV show in existence, well until now....

    Jan 30 '05
    Pros: Timeless, classic, funny, humorous, inside jokes, subtelties, political humor
    Cons: Political humor too direct at this point, some episodes formulaic

    Summary: The Simpsons used to easily be the best TV show on the planet. I am the proud owner of the first five years on DVD, and when season six comes out I will be among the first buyers of the collection. Unfortunately, the last several seasons of the show ... read more

  • Simpson - mania

    Aug 23 '04
    Pros: It has a high range of episodes.
    Cons: Not any I know.

    Summary: When I first saw the Simpson's I knew I would love the show. The Simpson's is a loving, heart warming, hilarious show about a crazy family all with different personalities. Homer, the 36 fat, stupid man who can't help his craving for beer, donuts and ... read more

  • just about to jump the shark

    Jul 14 '03
    Pros: The only cartoon I still look forward to seeing after all these years
    Cons: present season is too slap-stick and not as smart or funny as the past 13

    Summary: First i must say that I am not one of those die-hard fans who know all the titles of every season's ... read more

  • Simpson, Eh?

    Jun 07 '03
    Pros: none
    Cons: none

    Summary: Springfield, a lazy town with lazy service. This is the home of the simpson family. The Family: HOMER: An overweight husband and father who is bald. MARGE: A tired busybody who has tall blue hair. BART: A troublesome brat who ... read more

  • The Simpsons, a stupid but intelligent family

    Oct 29 '02
    Pros: everything you want in a cartoon
    Cons: nothing!

    Summary: Presently, the best cartoon on television today is the American show, The Simpsons. You may not enjoy it the first time you see it, but I guarantee you will begin too see the humour, originality, and will want to watch this sit back entertaining carton. ... read more

  • Simpsons Show Vast Improvements After Infamous "Scully Era"

    May 30 '02
    Pros: Season 13 provided intelligent plot structure and several hilarious episodes but...
    Cons: ...we still have a long way to go..

    Summary: After Season #12, the Simpsons left us hardcore fans wanting much, much more. Mike Scully,who as produced many of the shows in the past few seasons, tried to put the Simpson family under a full makeover from it's previous looks. Bottom line: It really ... read more

  • Time to wrap it up Matt

    May 27 '02
    Pros: One of the greatest TV series ever
    Cons: Past 4 seasons are not the same, terrible actually

    Summary: Ah, The Simpsons. In my opinion, it is a great show. During seasons 3-7, that was the golden age of the show. 90% of the most funniest episodes were contained during those seasons. Even Conan O' Brien of the Late Night show was a producer of The ... read more

  • Brilliant Satire of the American Lifestyle

    May 14 '02
    Pros: Hilarious, intelligent parody of the American lifestyle.
    Cons: A cartoon tends to suggest focus towards children.

    Summary: I must say first of all that I am only 16 years old and I haven't failed my classes or told any of my teachers to eat my shorts; in fact, I'm an A/B Honor Student. Therefore, no one here can really say that The Simpsons corrupts everyone who watches it. ... read more

    Summary: What moore can be said of the simpsons??!!! They are the cartoon moore enterteining that exists in the whole planet, not only for his silly things and ironic acts, but also for his dialogues so chispantes that they leave you the dry mouth of so many ... read more

  • They're dysfunctional but we love'em

    Feb 09 '02
    Pros: Funny, colourful and a brilliant program
    Cons: Not on enough in the UK

    Summary: Despite the lack of SKY or Digital in my house, I can safely say that I love the Simpson’s. For 11 years now our favourite family has grown from obscurity to world stardom – and George Bush Snr even knows who they are, albeit for the wrong reasons – and ... read more
