2. They had a little bump, but recently the writing got better again |
|
I'm looking forward to the new season...and still waiting for the movie. I figure they got a few more seasons, and a movie in them.

12. the first double digit seasons were awful, but the've gotten better |
|
personally, i think they should go a few more seasons, then have a spinoff -- "Springfield, USA". That show has SO many characters (and a well established universe/brand) that they could go on for decades.

4. As long as they keep from going to the "right" they will be okay |
|
You know they are going to feature a gay marriage between two characters this season sounds pretty exciting! :bounce:

6. As long as there's an occasional turnover of writers and the actors... |
|
love doing it (and they all seem to), "The Simpsons" can last at least another 3 -4 years. Maybe 5. :-)

19. This last season (Season 15) was one of the best ones in about 3-4 years |
|
I think some of the writing/production staff turned over and the quality had a definite improvement. They could go a few more years.
